We ordered two smaller desks and Joe put them together last night and this afternoon. This morning we moved everything out of the computer room and then moved the double bed from Emily's room and put it in the computer room. We then moved the two filing cabinets into the closet and moved our new computer desks in to the room. It was a lot of work but I'm very pleased with the results! Now Emily has more room for her toys, guests can spend the night at our house without worrying about waking Emily up, and our computer room now looks normal.
We should have done this 2 years ago . . . but you live and learn!
Here are the before and after shots:
Emily's room before and after:
Emily was such a trooper today since she went unsupervised for a lot of the time while we moved stuff around. So that also means that we have crayon marks on our wall and piano : ) But the Magic Eraser (my favorite household item) cleaned those marks right up! Emily got upset when we took the crayons away from her for coloring in places she wasn't supposed to . . . but she got over it. I also discovered that she colored on her yellow chair . . . crazy girl!
Here she is coloring in places that were o.k. These were the computer desks boxes so this kept her busy last night. She also enjoyed sitting by the door and coloring on some paper:

You are doing some serious "Fall" cleaning. The new guest room looks awesome
Kids love to play in big boxes. I know ya'll are enjoying your rooms - they look so much more organized - it was worth the hard work. Mom
