My Little Life

Am I apostrophizing "girls" correctly? As in "the possession of more than one girl"? Also, can you verb apostrophe? 'Cuz I just did. Grammar lesson aside, the girls' (correct?) room has been bedding'ed! (Can you verb bedding?) I didn't actually count the votes, but I think #2 and #3 were mentioned most often, and they were my favorites, too, so I'm glad to know we have the same taste. I would've been bummed if y'all had picked my not favorites. But, alas, it IS Belle's and Baby Girl's room, so they (as in Belle...if Baby Girl had picked, we'd prolly be back to Tinkerbelle.

Then, my parents decided to replace their "still decent but definitely used and yet in much better condition than ours" carpet and they offered us their old stuff. We thought, sure, why not and then set out to determine which of the our rooms' carpets were worse than the others. It was basically a draw...all of the carpets coming in so close to one another in their yuckiness, but the girls' room won, what with theirs being the only Berber carpet. Ew. Berber. Who invented that? Anyway, we decided that since we'd be taking out the carpet, what better ...
