The "Dormitory" is taking shape. Today we were able to find a cabinet on sale ~ we'll be using upright storage cabinets as dressers in the girl's room to conserve floor space. I think we now have all of the bedding we will need. Much of the bedding was given to us. For the rest, it's nice to be shopping during clearance season!
All seven girls will be starting out in the same bedroom (the dorm). The room is large, but it is our hope to be able to finish some projects here which would allow for more bedrooms this spring.
We've also been sorting clothing and getting things ready. I did the first load of laundry for Mo and Ed today! Beginning Mom tasks. Looks like the main things we're missing yet are things like pjs, jeans, and church clothes. We have not even begun shoe shopping yet, because we don't have their sizes.
It feels so great to be preparing for their arrival home!

Does this mean you got the last bunk bed set up too?
Well... not yet. Unfortunately, every time our friend has a day during which he could go get the bunk (day off from work), we have another snowstorm!
It will be here when it's time.
