Carmine's Nursery




Carmine's Nursery is finally ALMOST finished. There is one thing missing. But I don't know when it is getting done, so I figured I might as well post these. The one thing missing is the growth chart. It will be in the third picture and it is a large Cat in The Hat holding an umbrella on canvas. I love how it turned out and I am going to be very sad when we move. However, depending on how old Carmine is when we move, I may end up pretty much copying the room in the next house.

Catch Up

We have had such a busy week. Monday wasn't too bad during the day, but then I went out with some other moms to the Cheesecake Factory! YUM!! Then Tuesday we went to the zoo.
It was so beautiful out. But it also made me start thinking about a double stroller.(this is how Carmine saw the zoo). I found one at Babies R Us that has every feature that I really like except that it would be $300 when it is all said and done. So we will see. But I just don't know how long I would be able to carry one of them and push the other all day long. Then yesterday we went and got Carmine's 2 month pictures taken. We were there forever. Then last night I had a partylite party. And Rece had his first gymnastics class. Unfortunately I couldn't go because of partylite, but daddy took him and said it went pretty well. Then today I hosted recipe club for mom's club. My house is a disaster and laundry needs done and I need to exercise but I don't feel like doing anything!!! Oh well. I don't think we are going to do anything tomorrow!






And the newest thing Rece has been doing, is when I go in the morning to get him out of bed, he wants to hang out in there for a while. He just wants me to sit in the rocking chair and he hangs out in the crib. We sing and talk and play games. It is kind of funny, but hey he wakes up happy so that is all I care about.
This is him showing me his nipples :)






And Tony and I have a question for all you readers out there. We have differing opinions on this. We just recently put this window picture frame on our mantle but now one of us thinks it should stay as is(propped up) and the other thinks that we should actually hang it. What do you think?

Out with the old and in with the new

With Tony's bonus this year we are doing some home improvements. We are getting new windows, new skylights, a new bathroom cabinet, some new lights and new hardware for the kitchen/baths. There are some other things I would much rather do, but these things really need done. We are started them and here is what we have so far!
