Before I was able to get pregnant with Caden I remember a plea from one of my prayers.  I don't remember all the exact words, but I recall very clearly begging Heavenly Father to some day bless me with a home that's floors were covered in toys because that would surely mean I had lots of little ones.  Today as I'm ready to rip my hair out because of the mess from my three boys "helping me unpack", I had to laugh at that very sincere prayer I utter 5 1/2 years ago.  It has most definitely been answered--it put today in perspective.  Thank you, thank you for answering that prayer! I am so very grateful for my messy floors.

Last weekend Bryan built this reading nook for the boys toy room.  I love it.  And no, I didn't stage this picture, Caden actually sits still and enjoys reading here.  Miracle.
And I'd be lying if I said it still looks like this.  Parker decided my floors weren't messy enough and pulled every last book down.  I LOVE TWO YEAR OLDS!

LOVE IT. I am so super jealous of your playroom.

Maybe I'll have to re-do mine:)

I love that reading nook! Bryan, you are so clever.

And I think your playroom is bigger than our entire apartment.

That playroom looks amazing! I can't believe how big your boys are getting. Law School is sadly starting to seem like a distant memory. Owen looks like a little sweetie. Glad to see things are going so well for you guys!
