    a little pictureka for the kids... I love that the 2 year olds can really play

    We had a super fun weekend but it might take me 2 or 3 days to recover from this one! It has been 24 hours now but I am not ready for real life yet 🙂 BUT our play room is coming along!! I can’t wait for it to really be done! We need to do a little more prep – then paint and carpet and BRING IN THE TOYS!!

    The Door (i decided that i did not want an actual door - just open like this).

    Almost ready for paint - my built in toy box in the back!

    1. As always, wish I was there to play!!!!! And, i think you should do a little tension rod with a cute little curtain in your doorway.

    2. How the heck do you keep up a pace like that for three days??? My goodness! I’m exhausted just reading that. Sounds fun though! Can I come see your crawlspace playroom when it’s all done?
