Catch Up!

Happy Birthday to Alisha! We love you and appreciate all you do!

I realized I hadn't posted in quite some time, we have been very busy working on the house, going to work, church, etc. We should finish the house on Queens this week and it is looking great!

We enjoyed seeing the Haynie's this week while they were in town. We didn't see them as much as we would have liked but did get some time together. Saturday the 13th we went to Kids Market and I bought Addie 60 items for ~$115. Not bad huh? She should be pretty well outfitted for the first several months. Lacey, Michelle and I just picked up everything we liked at first and ended up with a mountain of clothes and had to narrow it down considerably...
I am now 33 weeks pregnant and getting bigger by the minute! Jarom made a tamale casserole tonight for dinner so Addie feels the need to stretch after such a big meal. No matter how much I push her out of the way her little feet make their way back up to my ribs and push and push until she is comfortable thus making me VERY uncomfortable tonight. That will teach me to not eat spicy Mexican food again.
Jarom leaves for appliance training in Atlanta tomorrow and will be gone until Wednesday. This will be only the 2nd time I have ever been home alone and the 1st time it will be longer than one night.
We bought a crib this weekend from a lady here in Huntsville that we found on ebay and so I plan to paint and antique it while Jarom is gone. Alisha, I'm sure I'll be calling you to figure out how you did the headboard we have so I can make it look similar. Then come Wednesday I have hired painters to come in and repaint the inside of our home to get ready for Addie.
Isn't it wonderful to have handy people in the family? My sweet dad is patching all of the nail holes and cracks in our sheetrock so our house will be like new again once it is painted, I am so excited to have my house fresh with new paint! The guy that lived here before us felt a need to put at least 15 nails in each room along with anchors, etc. so there was a TON of patching to do... Hopefully the next time any of you see my home it will be beautiful!

You're smart to hire someone to do the painting... it is the pits! Call me and I'll help any way I can with the bed. Sounds like a fun project!

I didn't get around to doing Noah's nursery until I was about 36 weeks so Dawn, Misty and my Mom took pity on me and did all of the work. Isn't family fabulous?! You are really getting down to the wire. How exciting. Yeah for you for your crazy finds at Kid's Market.

I never let you know about my camera. It is a Casio Exilim ex-z850. It has 8.1 megapixels. I've been really happy with it so far, no real complaints. Nate got it for me right after Nathan was born off of points, which was nice because it is a $350 camera, or at least it was that much a year ago at Cosco. Good luck getting a camera!
