Annika's new room

Well today was a big change in this house. Annika got her own room!

It all started around 3:00am today. I don't know why I woke up but I did and noticed a light on down the other end of the house. I got up and saw that it was the girls light on and they were sleeping. I knew right away that it was Erika. So I shut off the light and go back to sleep, get a couple more hours in, and at 5:00am I hear Erika yapping away. So I get up again, go to their room,the light is on again, Erika is up playing, Annika is just sitting in her bed in a tired daze. I lay them both down, go to the breaker box and shut off the switch to their room, and get back into bed.

Minutes later I hear 'click click click click........Whahhhhhhhh!' Erika was trying to turn on her light and got right pissed that it wouldn't turn on. So I ended up just bringing her to bed with me so we could all get back to sleep.

Well, after breakfast I started taking everything out of the computer room to make it into Annika's own room. I hope Darren doesn't kill me. I have mentioned to him that I wanted to do this long ago but he was dead against the computer being in the living room. (not sure why. maybe he likes to look at some websites I wouldn't approve of. (ha ha) I don't know.) So I got everything cleaned up in there and put her bed in and some toys and books, it looks so cute! (Crystal, I put the picture of the Care Bear you made for her up in her room too!)

When I was done I carried Annika into her room as I covered her eyes and when we got in I counted to three and uncovered her eyes. She was quiet for a few seconds, she probably didn't know what the hell her bed was doing in the computer room, and after I explained this was her own room she got pretty excited. She started taking books off her shelf and took them to her bed to look at them. I took a pic which I will post in this when I get them developed. I feel pretty good now.

Exept our living room is a bit crowded. All I can think of is "Where are we going to put the Christmas tree?"
