I've been flying around here trying to get all our my major projects done before I return to work. Things have been pretty much insane in our household the last week or so. Next Tuesday is when I stop being an at home mommy, and back to work I go.
I have such mixed feelings about this whole thing. I really really enjoyed staying at home with my babies. I've never been a stay-at-home mom until Maci's condition forced me to stay at home. Incase you didn't know {I don't talk about it much, if at all} My family has a barbecue restaurant. I was twelve when my parents opened. Naturally, I've been working there for over half my life. It's been such a blessing to our family, and many customers have become like family. They've watched my siblings and I grow up, attending graduations, weddings, baby showers, etc. I miss them all too!
I'm really excited that everything has turned out...Maci will be starting Kindergarten next week, while Makenzie was able to return to her preschool {that she and Maci were enrolled in last year}.
These past eight months have really been life changing, and I will cherish the memories and lessons for the rest of my life!
So a long time ago, I posted nightmarish bedroom before photos. I then followed a little while later with progress photos. Sadly, I am still in progress mode, but I'll show a little more 'progress' photos!!

{{My biggest issue}}
Please excuse this photo! It is sheet change day around here, along with the laundry folding! As of right now? The laundry is all put away!!
The real reason I haven't really shown my bed??? I honestly don't care for it much. My hubby and I found it a long time ago at a thrift store for $20. I am in love with the foot board, but not so much the headboard. This Saturday however we have major plans for it. Hopefully it will help me like it more. {would like to give the poor thing a chance!}
I don't like the blingy white of the sign either. I have plans for that bugger too!! Wish us luck! I hope to see this room finished soon!
Enjoying the beautiful sunny shine here in the PNW!!! Makes housework all the more easier!!
