The best thing happened a few months ago! Jesse turned to me and said, "What house projects would you like to do this spring?" It was like music to my ears! It may have backfired a little because I gave him a list of what I've been thinking about for each room in the house. … Continue reading Bathroom Tiling: Any Good Advice?
Put it on a stick: Sculptural Drift Wood
A few years ago, Jesse and I spent a weekend camping on Lopez Island. It was a great weekend, yada yada yada...not the point! The point being that I found a cool piece of drift wood. My guess is that not everyone is going to think it's cool, but I do. I love the knots … Continue reading Put it on a stick: Sculptural Drift Wood
{Better Remade} Rocking Chair
Warning: post is low on words, high on photos. With a 7 month old, not only do I not have time for a wordy post, but I don't have the head for it either! Writers block :) I think as soon as I found out Lucy was a going to be a girl, I brought … Continue reading {Better Remade} Rocking Chair
Can I get a hand?
That's meant to imply I need a hand to help me back on to the wagon, not because I think I deserve a round of applause. I'm jumping back on the blogging band wagon, or at least I will try. I didn't mean to take a hiatus, but I never seemed to be able to … Continue reading Can I get a hand?
Front Yard Progress
I started back at work last week. It's part time, so I can't complain, but even part time, I feel like I am not able to get much done. My days are spent playing catch-up. Before maternity leave I never would have believed how much time I could spend cleaning and organizing, and yet never … Continue reading Front Yard Progress
{DIY} Ombre Curtains
I know I said I was going to finish up 30 Before Baby, but the other night it poured meaning that summer is officially on it's way out and I can no longer count on the sun. The rain stopped around 8am and the sun came out, so I figured this could be my last … Continue reading {DIY} Ombre Curtains
Updated Living Room
I decided that number 15 and 16 on 30 Before Baby only needed one post and since I only have a single photo, I just thought I'd throw up it! Wow, 2 posts in 1 day...don't think I've ever done that before...I'm trying to just power through. 15. Buy a TV console which I … Continue reading Updated Living Room
I’m back…well I’ll try my best
I keep not posting because I don't know how to start after being away so long. I figure before I post any more projects, I have to update by 30 Before Baby List. There are a bunch of things that I did near the end that I never posted about. I barely had energy to … Continue reading I’m back…well I’ll try my best
She’s Here!
Well we finally got our little girl - Lucy Jane, born July 5th. I'm a little relieved that she wasn't born on the 4th. I feel like it's a lot of pressure to have a fire cracker baby. Every year there would have to be an epic party to compete with all the others. I … Continue reading She’s Here!
Shades of Grey
I had thought we would put off our house painting project until August, after the baby was born and we'd hopefully have some rhythm and routine back in our lives. The house has lead paint that needs to be removed first, so I figured I would just head to my parents house with the baby … Continue reading Shades of Grey
