October Fun!

We have had a fun but busy month! I love fall and it gets me so excited for all the fun holidays to come! I do love October. I love that my kids are really getting into all the activities that we have been doing too! The weather has started to turn cold and we have had some rain too so we have been creative (thanks to Pinterest) and found some fun indoor games. We also went to the pumpkin patch with some friends and are getting all ready for Halloween. I am very excited about the girls costumes this year!!

We did Halloween nails. Annie had all pumpkins but Macey wanted flowers and flags on hers so she had a couple different seasons on her nails :)

Room Redo

Over the weekend we turned out playroom into Annie's room. We have always had all the girls in one room and it has worked out great. They all sleep great, even through someone waking up or crying, and then we were able to have a room dedicated to all the TOYS that come along with kids. Well, since we are adding in another little girl we made a few changes. Macey and Olivia are in one room and Annie is in the other. I think eventually we will have Annie and Macey together and the little ones share a room but for now this is going to work out great!

It was so fun re-doing a room! I love to decorate and with the help of my sister who has amazing design taste, I really like how the room turned out! I have been collecting decor for months, painting, and sewing. It is so cozy and warm. Here are a few pictures of how it turned out!

I love this wall.

I made these pillows to match her room colors. I went with red, aqua, black and white. I am excited to have a bigger bed too, now we can have company stay with us!

I LOVE these shutters! I found them months ago and I knew exactly what to do with them. I love the bold color. Annie picked out some cute photos to hang up too. Rex made the best new bookshelf! I love it! He did such a great job and it holds all the girls toys, books, and art supplies in 8 cubbies.

Annie all snuggly and sleeping.
