It has been decided that the bottom bunk (at least) of the white bunk beds will stay in dh's/jacob's new room. If there is enough room in the girls' room, the top bunk will move in there. I moved the loveseat into the "man cave" for dh to sleep on if the other bed fits in the girls' room, if it doesn't, he has the bottom bunk & jacob has the top bunk, but knowing him, he will fall asleep every night on the loveseat watching tv anyways.
**Footnote** dh is happier about the move now that we have:
1. found the remote to that bedroom's satellite
2. moved the loveseat in there in front of the tv
3. moved all his dead animals in there (deer heads)
4. named the room the "man cave"
The cabinet was moved into "the man cave".
Still have left to move:
* red bunk beds into girls' room
* crib to girls' room
* bins to the shed

Musical Bedrooms (did this last night)
Sooooooooooo..........as soon as I hit send yesterday, I made the decision (drumroll please.................)
I moved dh into the girls' small bedroom, and them into the Master Bedroom.
So far, I have:
* moved dh's mattress (kids' broke his frame), nightstand, tv, wii & chest of drawers in dh's new room
* moved girls' dressers (the 9 cube organizers), mattresses in master bedroom
* hooked up dh's tv, satellite & wii
* hooked up girls' tv & satellite
* moved kitchen armoire (not being used in there anymore once i get the parts to my kitchen pantry) to the living room to be used as an entertainment center
* moved dvd's from entertainment armoire to the new armoire (chey was able to get them all out every day from the old cabinet, hoping the drawers prove harder for her)
* moved old entertainment armoire to front yard & listed on freecycle
* listed trundle bed on freecycle
Still have left to move:
* bunk beds into girls' room
* crib to girls' room
* cabinet into dh's room
* bins to the shed
PS...DH was not crazy about the move...especially since I could not find the remote to the satellite in that bedroom

My Kitchen......an interruption in service.........changing to my Girls' Bedroom
Ok, my husband went to put the pantry together and had the wrong pieces (pt. 2). Well, since then, we have just been waiting around for the new pieces to arrive. So, until that magic moment when they arrive, I am going to (cringe) start work on my daughters' bedroom instead.
Recently I took everything out of my girls' room (ages 8, 5 1/2, 3 1/2) except their beds. They were not putting anything away.....despite the numerous different setups I had tried in getting their rooms decluttered, rearranged & reorganized. Every single week (Thursdays usually), I would get so frustrated by the mess, I would do another purge. Their toys got banished to the playhouse outside, they lost their tv privledges, their art supplies got taken to my small, already overcrowded office space. Their clothes got moved to the living room (and yes it drove me bonkers).
I recently put their clothes back in their room, but am beginning to have the same problem of them just throwing the clothes in the floor....even after "I" put them away. So, to solve this problem, I have taken their 9drawer cubby system (target with the fabric drawers) out of their dark closet, and moved it out into the bedroom, where they can see it again. AND, I have made it Caity's responsibility to put the clothes away. I have tried everyone putting their own clothes away, but Brea & Rory just did not care. They would take their clothes and toss them in the floor. I think Caity will be better at enforcing keeping the clothes put away than me, since she is now responsible for putting them away. She likes to do as little work as possible, lol, so she's not gonna want to keep putting the same clothes away over & over.
They have a bunk bed and I put the 3rd mattress under the bunk bed & it is pulled out every night (I am going to buy a trundle box for her bed). So, right now, the room is fairly empty. But I want to get their toys & art stuff back in there just not sure how to go about it yet.
So, I have a very small 13'X8' room for these 3 girls.....emptied it out of everything except their clothes.........and now..........I want to do the unthinkable..........and add a fourth girl to this room.....In a crib!!!
And, I am debating making my dh trade rooms with the girls, since his room is bigger.
LOL....I never can make things easy, can I???
Ok, so no pictures to post yet, I am going to think over the possibilities in my head about what I want to do. If anyone has any ideas, PLEASE, feel free to share them with me!
