oona's been busy

Yep, it definitely seems to be different with girls. Oona blessed us with this creative display a couple of weeks ago. She also hit the dining room and living room walls. Mind you she did all this handiwork while I spent five, ten minutes tops, packing my bag for the gym and gathering snacks for the kids while they're at the gym. Imagine my surprise when I came upon all the scribblings.
On the plus side, these are rooms that we're planning on repainting anyway. In the spring Oona's moving out of her tiny room to Owen's room and Owen's moving up to the guest bedroom (we don't get many visitors) and Oona's room will become my craft room/office for nursing school.

I like how the scribbles sort of look like speech bubbles, but don't let Oona know that I said that. Her room looks horrible right now - no pictures (she swings them against the wall), no curtains (pulled at), broken windowshade (guess who broke it), dresser taken out of room when she tried to climb it and it almost fell on top of her. Her room is a bit like a cell but she's three and pretty destructive. There are a bunch of stuffed animals though.

I hope that everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

That looks a lot like Eric's handiwork! He went at our dining room wall with a dry erase marker, which, as it turns out, is more permanent than a sharpie. And there's still some purple crayon on the wall in the family room...I suppose the medium of paper is just too boring for our crafty babes!
