Bubba’s Big Boy Room

Of course we couldn’t forget Wryder’s room!  He’s officially moving upstairs AND into a toddler bed – Lord help us!  Sawyer was in one at 18 months…but he sleeps a little wilder than she does.  We haven’t made the switch just yet but we have a few months.

I mentioned in a previous post that I had bought him some John Deere curtains and I must say, I think they look adorable.  Plus, hearing him yell, “Tractor!” every time he runs into his new room (and then hug them) makes them well worth it.

We kept the big bed in the room so that we can still use this as guest room as needed.  He’s small and flexible enough that he can sleep anywhere else in the house when company comes.

I didn’t know what I was going to think of this room with all we had to make fit but I think it turned out pretty cute.  The fact that he loves it and that sister is SOOOOOO excited to have him as her “neighbor” is enough for me!  I just don’t know how my little boy got so big…….

Pink is Making a Comeback

So today we worked in the toy room, which is now going to be Sayble’s room when she comes along (hopefully not anytime soon).  We left the toy box and the bookshelves but added a few touches to make it a little more girly.  I still have a little more work to do on the curtains (if my nesting energy prevails) but until then, here’s the {somewhat} finished product.

This changing pad cover was my inspiration for the room.

Cute, yes?

Wrex said it was a little gypsy…that made me like it even more!

Oh the pink that is returning to our lives!

I’m so excited about all of this pink that is returning to our home!  Wryder hasn’t seemed to mind too much either…

She’s a Funny Girl

Sawyer has said some REALLY funny things lately.  Maybe you just had to be there, but she’d had us stifling grins and giggles…and sometimes flat out belly laughing!

****************

While trying to pray before supper, Wryder didn’t want to hold hands with me, just Wrex.  Wrex was talking to him about how we hold hands when we pray and Sawyer said, “Well, unless you have one arm that was bit off my a shark, then you can’t hold hands on both sides.”

Pretty sure this stemmed from watching this past season of The Amazing Race, which featured Bethany Hamilton…pretty sure.

****************

In the car…

Sawyer: “Mom, who’s your favorite singer?”

Me:  “I don’t know…that’s a tough one.”

Sawyer: “What about daddy?”

Me: “I don’t know who daddy’s favorite is.  Probably George Strait?”

Sawyer: “No, I meant is daddy your favorite singer?”

Me (stifling a giggle): “Oh!  Yeah!  I do like to hear daddy sing!”

Sawyer: “Yeah, he can sing but he sure can’t dance.”

Wrexy thinks Tom Selleck is one handsome dude.  I concur.  He turned 70 the other day and someone had a side-by-side pic of him in his 40’s vs 70.  (Just so you know, he hasn’t changed much).  I was showing it to him and Sawyer looked at it and said, “That’s PaPa!”  They do look quite alike…
