This week has been a bit exhausting – at 31 weeks pregnant, once I’ve worked a full day and picked up the little one from daycare, then fed her (and us usually), I really just want to rest. HOWEVER there are things to do! This week I got the 3 closet doors that we brought …
We spent the day finishing up the closet today. We started with a trip to home depot to buy the supplies, we went with ClosetMaid metal shelving. Then Ryan sanded the walls of the closet and we installed the new light. Finally we got to installing the closet system. Here are the finished closet pictures! …
Yesterday since the cousins were over we spent the day hanging out with them. We baked (fresh blueberry muffins!) and ate (said muffins for sure) and shopped! The halloween costume breakdown is this: Georgia – a witch (Simplicity 2834) Chloe – a vampiress (McCalls 6097) Maia – Rapunzel (Simplicity 2065) Looking forward to this year, …

It’s that time of year again -our August work on the house stay-cation. We started out pretty strong too. Main goal this week is to get the window panels finished (diningroom ones) and secondary goal is to make progress on the closet (master bedroom). Friday we started out strong, I managed to finally vacuum the …
