his bedroom.

tucker's room is a bedroom, a toy/playroom, and a dump!  i need to get it organized.  i think i am going to be taking his crib down and putting his mattress on the floor (eeek, is this okay?) this week.  he's not ready for a big bed, but when this kid wants to get out he could flip himself over the top, and he doesn't sleep well in the crib.  he ends up hitting the sides when he trashes about, waking himself up...this kids sleeping habits are something to be desired, i tell you.  anyways, back to the room.  i find a ton of things i want to do to his room, like have his room look like some of these, put this in there...my mind races with all the fun things we could do.  anyways, the point is, i don't want his room to look like this anymore...

eeeeek!  i'd forgot to take pictures of his closet area or crib/bed area...whoops.  gosh, how do you decide what toys go and what toys stay?  they play with everything!  i'm having toyoverload syndrome right now.  save me!  seriously, i didn't even show you the toys that reside in the living room.  he's got a corner in there too!  lordy!

any suggestions on how to get more organized?  what to pack away?  what irritating noisy ones i should crush with a sledgehammer?  :)

I'm definitely on board with the Pottery Barn themes. Wait, I'm more than on board. I think I copy every room when I go to re-do a room. I don't even think I've bought anything from them yet, but I definitely owe them a purchase soon because I steal all their ideas. Wait, I have some eating utinsels for Naydine from them. But anyway, about the toys. I'm so bad at this too. I think you're supposed to take some out and put them in totes and then in a month, do the same thing all over again so the toys are fresh for the kids. It's like Cmas every month. Good luck.... I suck at it too.

ya the crib matress on the floor may work, just leave a night light on and blockade the bathroom and hall way in case he does decide to wonder at night, that way he will wonder into your room, i'd give it a shot!! good luck......if you could leave a night light in your room too............that would be good
