Soren's room


Soren's crib wall done....have had this fabric forever and FINALLY hung it up.


Soren's shelf wall...finished
Kids in Memphis' room this morning playing train...Soren was putting on his hat his own way....


Almost done with Soren's room...just one more wall to finish but this weekend we FINALLY got the crib wall done. I have had that fabric forever and ever and finally Jason made a wood frame to stretch it on. It was hard because the fabric is not completely straight( I mean the print is a little wonky) but we are thrilled with how it turned out. The last wall to do is the wall to the right when you walk in his door. I want to hang a box shelf low and another cool display shelf I have above it and then his car print that I stretched with an Ikea fabric frame set. I love it....
Anywho...we will get to it soon enough....At least Memphis' room is done minus her desk she will one day have. Our room is a mystery to me. I have a great start but need to finish it up...hmmm
Today Jason is off working at the apartment building leaving me with both kids all day and I still have a cold. Touched up the kitchen paint. Made lunch...did dishes....cleaned up many messes...got everyone ready for the day....Soren napped...woke up ate and then we tried to go outside. Memphis had already been playing out on the deck all morning with her playmobil camper....and bunnies....
So we get out in the yard and Soren decides he wants his swimsuit on after all...so we put on his swimmie diaper and suit. All the while Memphis is standing in the kiddie pool looking sour. Then Soren decides he wants to fish in the pool...with his stick fishing pole and of course then Memphis decides she wants to run in and do canon balls...so she is stomping her feet telling Soren to move and he is saying 'Sissy fish now' and so it goes on this way for about 10 minutes or so and I finally step in and say you guys need to share. Memphis you could have done canon balls while he was getting dressed and Soren you have to share the pool with Sissy. So she decides to stomp her foot into the pool splashing Soren with a really big splash and he of course gets upset.
At this point I say that's it...everyone in the house for a time out.
Well...they are screaming upstairs but you know what...I have a basement now and I am just going to wait it out....
Happy Sunday to allllll!!!!

it's a funny balance right now- you know my two are the exact same age difference. they play together really, REALLY well at times- one of their favorite things to do together is build forts. i give henry a lot of credit, he's really amazing with her. but yes- sometimes he just runs out of patience. a bit with the language barrier, a bit with the struggle of sharing or just dealing with a two year old. sometimes i feel like everything is fine until i turn my back or walk out of the room and then immediately it's a whine-fest and they're bickering in their own little way.

ahhhhhh kiddos.

but dang. they're fabulous and we love them.

xoxo!

Yes we do love them but I think somehow with the girl first and then the boy it's a bit harder...not sure but my girl loves to argue and oh the drama and my boy is so much easier going until he's not but it never lasts long....
