Towards the end of my pregnancy I went through some major nesting. Aside from the normal cleaning, organizing, throwing things out, etc... I went on an organization kick and drug Drew along with my crazy ideas :-) He's such a good husband and went along with everything. Here are some of the things we did around the house recently...
Converted the office to a playroom
Along with that came getting ride of the desk and such in the office and buying this big wall system to organize all the toys... and just figuring out a place for all his toys.
Most of Pierson's toys are now in the playroom... including moving his kitchen that my sister bought for him into the playroom.
Built a new closet
There is a landing upstairs between the two boys' rooms that we had this buffet table and rocking chair in. Before we had boys in both rooms we used the closets to store some of our stuff. I was going crazy trying to find a place for everything and we decided to have a big closet built... it's awesome!!!
This was before...
Being built...
Pierson playing on the shelves in the new closet...
The shelves are spaced apart to fit rubber maid storage containers... we're going to fill this thing!
All done! With doors and trim to match the rest of the house!
A small peak at the inside... we bought TONS of rubber maid containers... they now hold everything from Pierson's clothes
Back door Entry Cabinet
We used to just have a glass table by the door to the garage and it ended up being a "junk" table that we just threw things on when we came in house. We ordered this wall system that has 4 big "cubbies" (one for each of us), slots for mail, places for magazines, a charging station to charge cell phones and anything else, an extra shelf and a big drawer. This way we can throw all of our stuff in here on the way in the door and not clutter the kitchen counter or any place else with our junk :-)
We also replaced a few paintings around the house, too...
This is now in our dining room
And this is now in our living room
