Redecorating is great exercise!

This morning I busted butt redecorating Saxon's bedroom. First I moved all of his toys and furniture out of his bedroom, and into the hall, so I could rearrange the room completely. I am trying to create more space in his room, so we can organize his things better (and therefore create less work for me each day by not having to pick up so many toys).

After pushing and pulling a queen-size bed, and 2 dressers, I was working up a pretty good sweat. I got the room in the order I was after, and put all the toys back in as well. Then we were off for a day of shopping. I hit the IKEA in search of items to decorate his new "trains, planes and automobiles" theme. He loves cars, choo-choos, and anything that flies. So, I was hoping to find some accent pieces, like wooden airplanes to hang from the ceiling, as well as new bedding, a curtain, and cute accent rug for his floor. I did find a little car rug, but no bedding, curtain or planes. It was a disappointment. Afterward we spent almost 2 hours in Toys R Us, so Saxon could test every toy in the store. By the time 5:30 pm rolled around, my back was killing me from standing all day long. 

So, here I am, on the net, surfing for cute bedroom stuff. So far, I've ordered a stop sign, railroad crossing sign, and a steering wheel - all which I plan to hang on his walls. I really want to find a pair of car hubcaps to hang on the wall as well. Next, I am determined to find some airplanes to hand from the ceiling. All from the comfort of my desk chair!
