I'm NOT pregnant! :)

WOW, is there buzz on the blog about the mention of "nursery"! :) We are eventually moving Easton into Raquelle's room (probably within the next 6-9 months). I'm taking on a design project in the next two months or so and won't have time to work on house stuff for a while and then if we get prego, I'll probably be too tired! :) So, that's why I did Easton's side of the room now. We're hoping to get prego, but nothing on the horizon at the moment!! The room Easton is in will stay a nursery-type room, so, that's why the mural will be nursery-ish. You silly people! If there was news to report...I'd just say so! :)

Easton's side...done! :)

For all of those following my painting addiction...here's another! I just finished Easton's side of the room tonight! Thanks to Raquelle taking a long nap today! - I went into her room after she fell asleep and got pretty much the entire wall painted while she slept! It was GREAT! I just glued up the letters tonight and whhhallllah, it's done! Now onto the nursery...stay tuned! :)

More painting...

Yes...I think I'm addicted to overhead projectors and paint! :) I'm having so much fun!! Here is Raquelle's side of her room! I love how it turned out!! :) The little girl reminded me of her! So, I thought it was perfect. I still have Easton's side to do (I'm doing a baseball scene with a batter, pitcher, catcher and umpire), but that can wait a bit. Also, I painted some white canvas boards I got on sale and painted a funky frame up above our bed in our master bedroom for like $6!! It's so fun and so personal!!

Silly computer boy

Yes, he has bed head, but is soo silly! Easton's little personality is coming out in full force and we're loving the silly faces, tons of kisses, the endless waves to everyone he meets, and just his all around sweetness!! Here he is drawing with daddy on the computer! :)

I love how kids think we can't see them when they cover their eyes!

A few pics

Here's a couple new ones. I'm putting these on our family wall in our dining room...along with a couple "oldies but goodies"

Do you like my flowers?

A little paint and some decorations goes a long way! :) I found these flower graphics on istockphoto and LOVED them...so, I painted them to go above our bookcases. Then, on the dining room wall we finally got some pics hung up...although, I'm going to replace the "scenic" pics I've had in these frames forever with some pics of our kids...hence the saying in the middle of the frames. And the last is our living room when you first walk in. I LOVE the new paint colors throughout the house!! I am just so thankful for this blessing God has given us...it was SO worth the wait!! :)
I took these pics with my point and shoot camera (hence the flash) because I was too lazy to change the lens on my nice one! :) haha

Park Days

Last week we were out enjoying the wonderful weather, going to the parks, on long walks and just taking in the last bits of summer!! This week, we've been inside tending to sick kids! :( Easton came down with a pretty high fever Tuesday night and it lasted through Thursday evening. By Friday he was totally back to normal...then, Friday night, Raquelle got the chills and by 11pm her fever was up to 102.5. So, she's lying on the couch with a fever again this morning watching Cinderella. At least it's JUST a fever...I dont' know why, but I'd prefer that to snotty noses and sneezing ANY day of the week!! My sweet sweet friend Julie was supposed to be here all week...she got here Tuesday afternoon and left Wednesday morning!! It was SUCH a bummer, but we didn't think it was a good idea to be in the sickie house for very long!! We miss her already and cherished the few hours we got to hang out together!! :)
So, here's a few pics of LAST week...when we were healthy and playing at the park!! And a couple misc. shots of us around the house. The one of Easton and me (at the end) was taken by Raquelle! :) I love it! :) - photog in the making!
