Adjusting

So, we moved out of my in-laws house about 3 weeks ago. It has been taking some getting used to. I have never lived in an apartment before, so I wasn't prepared for some of the cons that go with it. I think we are finally starting to settle down and make this apartment "our" apartment.
I think Ryan had the hardest time with the change. He is used to a backyard and a house to play in. He has his own room, with all of his toys and he wouldn't go in there very much. He would go and get his toys and bring them into the living room or into our room. So, I have been making an effort to bring him in there as much as possible. Instead of folding laudry in my room, I do it in his. I lay on his bed and just hang out while he plays. I showed him where all of his toys are and made them easily accesible to him. I always make sure there is enough light in there so he can play and at night I read stories to him on his bed. He has had no problem sleeping in there, but he didn't really feel that comfortable in there, I could tell.
So I was cleaning today and I went in his room and this is what I found.


It makes me feel like he is finaling starting to get used to it here. I just have to keep encouraging him into playing in his room. When he gets in trouble, I haven't been sending him to his room, because I dont want him to think of it as a place where he goes when he is bad.
