We got a slow start on Monday, needing to sleep in (well Ryan slept in, I had to take boo boo to daycare at 8am), but then i settled in to read for a bit, sinus infection only a little bit better than the night before. So we got up and did some errands, we …
Ryan and his Dad got right back to work on Sunday and had the floor completely tiled by lunch time on Sunday! Everyone needed a break by that point so we relaxed, giving backs a break (and nursing my sinus infection – perfect for a vacation!). After Ryan’s parents headed home we mostly just …
Ryan and his dad worked like crazy today. The floor of the kitchen is almost done in one day! Mostly the back hallway is left. It was a lot of work, we went with a 12×12 surrounded by 6×6 tiles surrounded by 12x12s. Seems simple, but it means a lot of cuts. Also done today, …
Ryan’s parents came out this afternoon for the weekend. We did a little clean up and prep and then went over to pick up miss alli boo. A quick trip to home depot with Boo to get a few supplies and we came back to a pile of cut tiles, and a pattern laid out …
Yikes I guess it’s been a while since we did much on the house. We’ve been a little busy with traveling to NY for Easter etc. In the evenings we did manage however to get the last 2 sections off the kitchen spackled and sanded and Ryan got the long piece of baseboard scribed and …

It’s been a while since we had one of those but we found ourselves home unexpectedly this weekend because Alex got sick again! This is actually a secondary illness (ear infections) so she was feeling fine mostly, just couldn’t sleep at night but with antibiotics she is doing much better. In the meantime, rather than …
So Alex started crawling over the last couple of weeks. On Friday she did the official hand/knees crawl but she still prefers the army crawl she’s been doing for a while. Of course I can’t upload a video bigger than 1MB so I have nothing to share on that but some cute pics of Alex …

It sure has been a while, it was a nice break though after the craziness that was the majority of the kitchen renovation, then the month of illness – yikes! This weekend was a nice relaxing weekend with a little house work – a perfect balance. Saturday Ryan ran to the dump and the home …
