More of Seth's Room

I forgot to mention that when Chloe got home from school, Seth, Tom and I hid in his room on top of and behind the bunk bed. Chloe came in and we all jumped out, "Surprise!" She was happy for Seth for about 2 seconds and then burst into tears because Seth has bunk beds and she doesn't... He loves the lights under his bed + they make a great night light ~ since he was sleeping with the light on. We brought back the three bins it took to take everything out of his room to make space for Tom. We eliminated at least one bin of unused toys. Seth keeps wondering if he will be taking them with him to college, like Andy on Toy Story 3!

Thanks, Uncle Tom

There has been some bed shifting lately in our family. Each of us siblings had been trying to have a spare bed for dad to come and stay over. Now most of us have an extra bed. Tom had lent both Erin and I each half of this set of bunk beds. They had gotten Erin's half back for Dad to sleep in and were just shifting things around at their house and then it got shifted around to our house!!! We had talked about making a play fort for Seth, leaving the bottom bunk open. I'll add a curtain rod with a sheet to make a fort and I have some spare LED Christmas lights that I will string up under the bed to give him some light while playing!

This is a picture of Tom making sure that it is structurally sound:

And his own little minions following his every move {like their tongues?}

This is a tutorial of one of the many ways of getting down!
