Make Over

Since we have moved into this house we have had plans to re do this or change this... when we were thinking of selling the house we really started thinking about it- never happened.
I told Mondo since we have a little one on the way we have a short period of time to decide what to do. We either: A-) Fix up the house so that we can rent it until we can sell it; or B-) Fix it up so we can settle into it and stay for awhile- until we can sell it.
We know this isn't our forever home but it's beyond time to do something so we don't feel like we are just biding our time until we can get out. Surprisingly, Mondo said we should just stay here and fix it up- Color me astonished!
My plan, is to do one room every pay period. That seems like forever, but it gives me nice break in between rooms and gives me a deadline so that I stay on track.
First up: Upstairs bathroom.



I will post the "after" soon, I still need new rugs and to finish the mirror. Yay for completing projects

Belly Bean

So we brought back an unexpected souvenir from Florida.... I'm pregnant!
I was hesitant to say anything right away but then I seen a little fluttering heartbeat and I can hardly wait to tell everyone. I'm really excited- it doesn't seem to have sunk in with the husband- I'm sure it will once I start showing or when we find out what we are having.
I am also quite upset that there is a shit-ton of crap that people should tell about pregnancy- like you can bleed, you are the most bloated you will ever be in your life... ya know the stuff you really need to know.


We are due January 5th, but I'm hoping our little friend will make a December appearance... mostly because our deductible will be met and then we can count him on our taxes. I have noticed that I keep calling the baby a 'him' but deep down I think that it's a girl.... Mondo really wants a boy first... so I guess we'll see!
