The Boys get a New Bedroom and Bathroom

Lately the boys have been wanting to play in their room more, but they really couldn't because there was not enough room. Alex's toys were downstairs in the family room with a few in the living room upstairs. Ted's toys were downstair in the family room and upstairs in the hall closet. So they didn't really play with any of their toys and when they did it wasn't in their bedroom. Ted and Alex asked for a bigger room so their toys could be in it and they could have room to play. So we decided to move them into the downstairs bedroom, which is where the guest bedroom was. And move their bathroom downstairs also (also the former guest bathroom). The guest bedroom is going to be moved upstairs in the boys old bedroom. And the main bathroom upstairs will be for the guests and Sierra. Before my surgery my mom, Brad and I were playing with a few different ways to put the bedroom together. My mom made an excel graph (to scale) and we were able to decide on a layout before the big move.
So today I layed in bed and watched Brad, my mom (Chris), my dad (Gary), Ted and Alex move the two bedrooms and bathrooms around. It was so hard not to jump up and help/watch. The boys love their BIG new bedroom; all of their clothes, beds, toys, books, etc fit perfect. Once I am up and feeling better we will hang up posters, pictures, and really decorate the room. And the bathroom is perfect for them.

This is what you see when you first walk into the bedroom.

The bookcase you see when you first walk in and Alex's costume and toys.

Alex's bed and costume drawers.

Ted and Alex's beds (in the corner between the beds we are going to get/make a table for a lamp, cd player and clock to fit on).

Ted's bed and bookcase.

The closet with all of their clothes (and now all of their toy bins are in the bottom).

Their bathroom when you first walk in. They wanted red and blue in the bathroom also.

The boys love their new bathroom.
