Space Invaders

Until you have children of your own you will never fully understand how much space they take up in your home. Their clothing, gear, accessories, and toys slowly infiltrate each corner of your house until one night you wake up in a cold sweat having dreamed that you were being suffocated by Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Tanner and Abigail are now 16 months old and there seems to be no end to the plethora of "stuff". They have stopped using many of the toys they played with when they were younger, but they have been replaced by other toys more suited for their developmental age.

There is baby stuff in EVERY room of my (3+ bedroom, 2 bathroom) house. Tanner and Abigail have even left their mark in rooms that they don't use! I have take a picture of each room of our home to show you just what I am talking about.

Granted I have two children so of course we have double of a few items. I can only imagine what our place would look like if we had more. We would probably need to finish the other side of the house AND build an addition.

Ken and I go crazy we are super organized and our house has little clutter so we get stressed over piles. I think with the baby stuff we have gotten better but I can still see Ken taking deep breaths and trying to figure out what can go the minute Autumn has out grown it! Young'ens loves us!
