Updates!

So I thought that I'd be on here sooner to get some pictures up but I didnt get a chance...
here is our updated basement after the lovely pipe burst.....



And here is the updated belly pic! I can't believe that it's already the 3rd trimester.

2 down 1 to go!!

Yesterday was my first day of the 3rd trimester! It's crazy how quick this has gone by but at the same time there are moments when it seems like it is dragging! I plan on trying to post a bit more today or in the next couple days..the basement is practically finished so we have new pictures of that....and some other things to post. Hope everyone is doing well!

unexpected renovations...

SO a couple weeks ago we came home from visiting mom and dad only to find a busted pipe in the basement. The ceiling was soaked as was the carpet. Thank God for homeowner's insurance. We called our ins and they came to look at it the next day. So this week we start EXTRA unplanned renovations... They will be fixing our ceiling, repainting EVERYTHING and new carpet. I'll have to post pics as the work begins. For now. Here's the damage. (I haven't posted pics on the updated bathroom simply because it's still in progress....as are many other rooms)

CONGRATS!!!!!

Just wanted to say Congrats to Daniel and Mindy...
Cecilia Ann was born tonight at 9:13pm weighing in at 8lbs 2 oz and 22 in long. I can't wait to go meet her tomorrow!!!

It's a BOY!

Adding another boy to the family! Maybe Ill trade the dog in for a female pup so Im not so out-numbered?

Our Crazy life is right!

I went to do an update and realized I NEVER posted on this blog about our addition! SO Here you go guys!

For those that may not have figured it out/heard by now... Tim and I are expecting an addition August 3, 2009. So far things have been ok. I had some severe morning/all day sickness for quite a while but that is all gone (Thank goodness!). Recently I have been having some blood pressure problems. One day at work I had to have someone take over my class because my b/p was WAY to high... 160/90..and the nurse was too worried. So we had a little scare and I ended up with a dr appt. It is/was completely job related and my dr put me on some medicine to help avoid going the not working route. So far so good- and I haven't had to take the medicine too often. I am def starting to show and everyone is working on their guess as to what we are having. Tim and I REALLY don't care either way but we do have our preferences as to what we would like first... But we also know we are so blessed to be able to bring a child into this world that boy or girl will make no difference to us! We have already chosen names but do not plan on telling until the baby is here. We go on March 10th to find out what we are having and we cannot wait! We have started working on ideas/gathering things for the nursery but do not have too much yet..Peter rabbit is hard to find! It's definitely going to be a great year! 2 of my best friends are also preg...Mindy is due in April, and Tiffany is due 6 weeks after me! There will be babies all around! I promise to try to update this thing more often but there's so much to get done and we seem to be busy every weekend. SIGH.... I will def update once we know what we are having..and possibly add some pictures later.
(I will get the pictures of the remodeled upstairs bathroom up at some point too!)

More renovating??

*I will post the "current" pictures soon!!*

SO since our last project we started a new one that we are in the middle of (of course its not done! we only halfway do things around here)

While still finishing up the downstairs bathroom we ripped out the upstairs... I'll let the pictures talk...Here are the before:
