7th Inning Stretch!

OH YEAH!! Ellen's room is done, come on now, do the Snoopy happy dance with me . . . . . ;) ALL 3 KIDS ROOMS ARE DONE -- I'm one seriously happy momma!

So really it's like a 7th innning stretch - the kids rooms are done, now we might as well spring clean the rest of the house (please, don't tell me that spring was months ago, I'd rather live in my happy little world!) We'll lay off the cleaning tonight (I have quilting to do anyway) and then finish up on Saturday. That will let us bask in the glow of accomplishment all day Sunday.

For the details on Ellen's room: we moved her bed in front of her big window and it looks beautiful - and we took out a total of 3 1/2 bags of trash over the two days of cleaning *sheesh* And she's already washed, folded and put away 3 loads of laundry.

Max pulled out two HUGE totes of Legos last night, and when I came downstairs about 9pm - he was asleep in bed, all Legos put away where they belong, today's clothes in the hamper, and not a single thing out of place - wow!

Marci tidied her room before bed and with a little prodding, got everything where it went and snuggled in bed for some Gameboy time before lights out.

BUT, the camera is lost in my quilting room, so no pix of any of these miraculous rooms yet. I promise some as soon as I find the darn thing. Cause it's an awesome sight to behold. Of course, I can barely bend over due to all the bending and squatting over the last few days picking stuff up of their floors, LOL.

Now to claim victory over the rest of the house, Off I Go!



AHA! Found the camera, enjoy the pix ;) First Ellen's:





then Marci's:
