Soooo, we've been doing a lot of work around the house to try to get ready for baby boy number 2...by 'we' I mean everyone but me...First Grandma and Grandpa had a man come in to strip wallpaper, fix and prime walls for painting upstairs...Since then Adam and the in-laws have been working their tushies off!
I've been doing what I can, but I'm definitely limited with what I can help with....Paranoid Grandma J and Auntie Robin won't let me paint, for fear of the fumes..I love you both..and I can't move heavy stuff, for obvious reasons....so, Evan and I hang out...I do what I can, which has been enough to get sore (moving books/toys/cleaning)...ANYWAY, Evan's room is pretty much done, with most of his stuff back in there, but not done enough for a picture....our room is getting closer too...some beige-y walls, with a couple that are a color called Copper Mountain....Jill, you remember our living room in our old house right?? That color....The baby's room isn't painted yet, but we're making lots of progress.....
Thank you to my great family...always there when you need them and they work so hard....we'd never get all this done without them....just a little more to go!!!!!!
There have also been a couple requests for more pictures so:
Here's Big Momma herself.....31 weeks......
Auntie Robin just getting started on our room.....Grandma J has done a lot of work since then too...
Grandma J working on Evan's room....
Silly (soon to be Evan's Uncle) Paul working on Evan's room.....Silly Uncle Paul even came on Wednesday to watch Evan while Grandma was busy....he's so great with Evan and we just love this guy!!ON ANOTHER NOTE.....Adam got half his Christmas present on Friday.....he'd been talking about a live Maine lobster forever, and so I caved and ordered one Jumbo Dude for him! It came Friday and Adam boiled it up and even shared a little...that was the most delicious lobster EVER!! Okay, so it was only the second time I've eaten it, but yummy!!!! The best part was that Adam was actually surprised!! Not only am I a notoriously bad gift-giver, but he's a notorious SNOOP. So, I was so, so excited to see how excited Adam was!! He refuses to let me take his picture, so he got this one of me getting ready to chow!
Well, it's almost Christmas and my parents will be here Tuesday to help us celebrate...I'm so excited to have them here and for Evan on Christmas day! I hope all of you have a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy start to the new year! Adam and I will be ringing it in kid-free in a cozy cabin in the snow in Interlochen....the last getaway for, well a long, long time! :)
Big Momma OUT.
