A Growing To Do List

With less than 2 months, now, before our little girl arrives, my brain has started churning over all the things that I have to, and would like to, get done before that time. My friend Sarahjenne made a similar list on her baby blog, so I guess I’m stealing the idea from her!
Need to Do [...]

Furniture Moved

heh, I just couldn’t shake the idea, so I moved the furniture around and took some pictures of the new arrangement. I’m definitely like it more this way. I can leave the door cracked enough to peek in (and see the crib without having to actually open the door)  but it still keeps the outside [...]

Nursery Project – Weekend 3

Friday night we painted the first coat of light pink before heading to Tyler.
Saturday we got back too late from Tyler to do anything useful.

OCD at Work

I have a very OCD one-tracked mind and when I start thinking about a particular thing, it burns like a wildfire! So here it is 24 hours later and I have drawn his new room in AutoCAD to make sure everything would actually fit, and then drew/pasted together a sketch of my plans in photoshop. [...]

Some Growing Up To Do

With a new little kiddo on the way, my thoughts have turned to Jonah… he’s about to be a big brother, and about to be ousted from his nursery and his “baby” status! We’ve started thinking about all the things he needs to stop doing, or start doing, hopefully before the baby gets here. Potty [...]
