Interior Decorating

I mentioned a few posts ago that Natalee is quite the whiz at decorating my walls. She loves to color pictures or make posters and hang them up. One day I came down form being in the shower, and this was up on my wall. She'd done the tape and everything by herself. My mother in law was quick to point out that it was going to ruin my walls, but somehow I think feelings are more important than walls, so we've left it up.
My favorite thing on the wall is this:Over the summer my dad brought Natalee a book that is like an encyclopedia of dog breeds. She loves it. It shows a picture of every kind of dog that there is in the world and a description of what they are supposed to look like. From the time that book came into my house, her favorite thing to do is sit and look through it and either copy down their names, or write stories about them. It's pretty cute, and good writing practice.
I finally took it down the other day so we could put up some Valentine's decorations, but I had to take a picture so we could remember it.

Ah, a fellow list-maker. Love it.

I wish I had pictures of all the lists I made as a kid: Names for my future children, favorite movies, actors, songs, people, etc.

Calvin is my list-maker so far.

We use tape on our walls and doors constantly. That Natalee is wonderful.

I love the x pattern she has going with the tape!! It looks like a custom bulletin board!
