So last night, after a few drinks...

And I had gone to bed, H was apparently feeling creative. This morning, I woke up to a living and dining room that essentially had been turned into a giant baby jail, with furniture pushed up against walls, and every toy she owns enclosed in the middle. I told him yesterday that I wanted to take the furniture out of the spare bedroom and turn it into a toy room so that all of her toys were NOT consuming our living space, apparently he misunderstood. I literally almost cried it was such a mess, and then his feelings were hurt because I didn't like it. Happy freaking Monday ya'll.

Oh man, that's rough. He obviously made a big effort so you want to thank him but its totally not what you wanted so you want to yell at him. Totally been there.

Sounds like our living room, which sucks but is the only play area available in our house. Hopefully it won't take long to put back together!

I was ready for this to be a "I'm KU" announcement.  In due time though.  In due time.

As far as the toy situation, we have them all over our family room but I try to limit the amount of toys that are accessible to DD.  She doesn't play with half of them so I leave some of them stored in her bedroom and then do toy rotations.  I know some people are super organized and have the toy shelf that has a bunch of cubes in it.  I think that would just aggravate my OCD and I would feel the need to put back the toys every night just so.  So I just have a basket from Target and I throw all the toys in there.  However a lot of nights I just leave the toys out on the floor.

@jenmbott I have terrible OCD when it comes to my house being neat and tidy, and put together.  I pick up the toys and take down the baby jail every single night, which is why it confuses me that H thought that rearranging our entire living room was a great idea.  Oh well, it was a pretty quick fix, thankfully.

Oh man. I am sorry your house is a mess.

Lol. Husbands...

Oh no! I hope he will help you fix it without getting annoyed. So frustrating when people think they're helping and really they're not listening.

After I'd have gotten through crying, I'd probably have laughed at that. Sorry that he did that, though!

I think it's awesome how he was thinking about the Hannah.  I understand how it could make you batty, but I think it's totally cute.

My DH would have gone to the garage.

@miss50 H always has the best intentions, execution...is hit or miss.
