We've started a few projects around the house to get ready for baby boy. That means Penelope has re-discovered her infant toys, specifically the bouncer. She still likes to spin her carrot and waffle-carrot (aka corn...thanks, Varinia!).
We also went to IKEA to get a second, affordable crib. When P gets a little bigger we'll convert the IKEA crib to a toddler bed for her. We got rid of our desk and chair so there was space. The crib is currently storage for P's blankets. I may not get any boy quilts sewn before baby boy comes, but he can always borrow P's blankets and baby supplies. We have plenty of pink and purple for him! I also need to make curtains to block out all the light...it's nice and sunny in there, but with the 2nd crib right under the 3 windows, it has become a necessity. Don't worry, I've got some cute IKEA fabric in mind!
You can also see the lack of storage in our apartment. There are boxes of P's outgrown clothes, books, craft projects, etc. piled all around the kids' room, and their closet is completely full of more boxes, so much so that should we stay in this apartment another year, we are debating getting a storage unit so we can actually store the kids' toys in their bedroom.
