The Resolution - Month 5 - Ryan's Room

I think this was the hardest room so far.  Not because there was lots of stuff to clean (kitchen).  Not because we had lots of projects to do or things to buy (play room).  Not because we were busy with other stuff this month (March).  This room was difficult because of the obvious logistical problem.  It's no secret to people with young kids that when said child is either napping or sleeping is when you are able to get stuff done around the house.  So how are you supposed to clean and organize the room that they are sleeping in?  It took a lot of teamwork, but we were able to stick to our resolution schedule and finish Ryan's room. 

Just like last month there were no fun art projects.  In our defense, we did plenty of projects when originally turning this room into a nursery.  This month again was all about cleaning, organization, and safety.  Pamela efficiently cleaned everything and put away all of Ryan's old clothes during her small windows of opportunity.  I, in turn, installed the TR outlets and attached his furniture to the wall.

This shelf isn't going anywhere

Safety is the name of the game

We have already started on the next room and it is the master bedroom.  Pamela is getting excited since we get to pick out a few new items to spruce up the area instead of just cleaning.
