A toy room!

So, the new house has a bonus space upstairs that, for now, is the kids' toy room.  I was against the thought of putting their toys up there when we first moved in.  There's an entry room that Josh and I have no clue what to do with, so I thought it would be better to have them all there where the kids would be on the ground floor.  But...I'm beginning to love the upstairs toy room a lot.  I can just throw all of the toys up there when they start taking over the living room and not feel the least bit stressed about them being completely unorganized and strewn everywhere.  :)  And I can hear the kids up there playing and peek in on them occasionally.  Really it's sort of Wallace's toy room right now.  Anna doesn't go up there nearly as much as him.  She's all into electronics and Netflix now a days.  She'll go up there for some Lego time, but that's about it lately.  

When we first were moving in, Wallace was still pretty unsettled.  He wasn't sleeping well (at all) in his bedroom, and he was so cranky and tired.  But every now and then I'd walk up stairs and find him asleep on the floor surrounded by his toys.  Guess he was finding comfort in the familiarity of all the toys he'd been missing for those two months.  He's since gotten used to his bedroom, and I never find him asleep up there anymore...until today!  

Nothing really beats how cute your kids are when they are sleeping.  :)

Except maybe when they are so tired that they fall asleep mid-play, holding their favorite toy, with their butt up in the air!
