DD'#2's house & baby room is all set. Now off to DD#3'S (the one that they think will give birth much earlier!) She had all the water damage from the heavy rains- her MIL painted yesterday the living room & kitchen- 1 coat- FIL did 2 coats on ceiling, We will finish the walls today- hopefully this weekend the flooring will be put down. THEN- the baby's room last as it has been used as a storage room- for paint & such- supposedly BIL was painting ceiling in Nursery last nite! I feel so bad for her- she so desperately wants everything in order- soon ! I don't blame her. I have all the baby furniture in boxes at my house & I'm sure the showere presents that will come on Sunday will land here too!

This is all good for me- as I am thinking of everyone else-- not my problems!
I should go before it gets too hot! Wish me luck- that my re-constructed shoulder holds out ! lol talk later Bunny

WOW! What a great mom and dinamo to be doing all that. Be careful with your shoulder, don't want to have set backs.


DD and I painted her room and all her furniture. We had bought the unfinished furniture. After her "incident" that was one of the healing projects we did. Brand new room for a brand new start. It's the cutest room, when she chose the colors I was skeptical, lime green and purple. But it turned out so very nice, it's a very cheerful room which reminds me of popsicles, lol.

This DD is having a girl Catherine! (After DH Mom), her room is going to be a pale-pale yellow, her bedding is butterflies & dragonflies & dasies, pink, lavender, pale yellow & pale green! really cute!

We actually painted the living room & kitchen walls & ceiling,it was starting to get warm when we were done! whewwww! This is the DD that was due in August- but now it has been moved up 3 weeks & baby is already 5 lb 6 oz- they will watch her- don't want her to get tooo big for a first baby! So now poor DD is spazzing out- that nothing is done--- we will make sure everything is done! Baby's furniture is at my house in boxes- her shower is Sunday- so things will come together- a bit quicker than anticipated- but many hand make light work ! My other DD is finally all set- clothes are washed in bureau- crib all set for Cameron to sleep in! If Catherine will just give us another week or two- she will be all set too ! yikeeees!
