Our day today...
Chris worked today until about 1 PM, then he changed the breaks on my car. He ended up getting home around 3 PM
I started on Colby's room at 9 AM I disassembled his toddler bed and started washing the walls. I also painted a bit of blue on his new dresser. At around 11:30 I brought my car to Chris and grabbed the truck. Then it was off to camp to disassemble a bunk bed and reassemble it as on twin bed. The other was loaded into the truck and brought home. Oh yeah, at some point this morning Colby's new mattress arrived and I unpacked that and set it on the floor in Hunter's room to allow it to expand (memory foam). We got back and got the bed into the house before the rain started. Lunch was had then bed assembly. As soon as it was assembled Colby needed bedding on it as he needed to "try it out". He layed in bed while I started back in on the walls. Chris came home and helped finish the walls. Then the bureau was brought in and I transferred his stuff from one to another. Chris had gone out and started clearing everything off the deck. I joined him and we power washed the house above the deck as well as a lot of scrubbing. From there Chris power washed the deck. I made dinner and clean out Colby's closet and shelves. We finished up around the same time and had dinner. Chris got to rest from there, but I had to run to the stores. I needed new window shades for Colby's room and Chris "needed" all the fixins for hot fudge sundaes. Finally home with shades replaced and Colby's room nearly back together I got to sit down for the first time all day
I even got to see Phelps get his 8th gold medal

I'm hoping to have it all pulled together by next weekend though.
Of course he's slept in normal beds many times in his brother's rooms or at my parents etc, but this was different. My goal was to have his room complete before he headed off to Kindergarten on Tuesday. I can't believe that he is nearly 6. Why are the kids getting older when I'm not 
for tips being covered!
