I've Been Bad

I've been bad. I've purposefully been neglecting this blog for the last week. It's because I knew I had photos on my camera I wanted to post and yet I forgot to upload them...but not today.

First of all here's an update on me at 19 weeks along:


Quite the little bump started there. Since the ultrasound I've been noticing a lot more movement in the tummy then before. I keep waiting for the little monkey to punch hard enough that Hubby will be able to feel as well but nothing yet.

Also we've had some great progress in our living room over the last few days. As you can see in the photo above the walls behind me are looking rather...um...well my mother in law calls it the Iraqi Neveau look.

But we've gone from this:

To this:

To...*insert drum roll here*...THIS!

Real walls! Unbelievable. The end is almost in side. Just a little sanding and some painting and those bookshelves will be done in no time. Now to just narrow down a paint colour!

Thar She Blows

So Friday night...doing dishes (yes I have no life). Actually it was Friday and we had been out for dinner and had a friend over and while hubby and he talked I thought it would be a good chance to get caught up on the dishes. Now the faucet has been whistling for weeks now which we assumed was just a washer problem. It only happened when the hot water was running and yes we thought we should fix it soon but never got around to it.

So the sink's about half full when suddenly the water just stops. No warning...and no water. The boys at this point are just loving this because you know what this means right? TOOLS!!!!



So they set to work trying to fix the problem while I sit and wait for the verdict. Verdict reads death sentence...no call from the governor, no last meal.

So we traipse out to Curtis Lumber the next day in search for a faucet. We find the cheapest (but still not cheap) one we can and start hooking it up later that night. Well guess what...we should have listen to my dad's advice which was "Do you think you'll need new pipes as well. Not all faucets have the same length to them"



So back again we go to Rona this time for the pipes. But thankfully it's all working now and I can do dishes again (um yay?). Too bad that I can't enjoy this baby for long though.


18 days left and counting.
