Baby's Room



....has been painted! Thanks in large part to my friend Rhonda who offered to come over and help me paint! Don't worry folks hubby bought non-toxic paint and I used a mask and Rhonda wouldn't let me bend or reach much. I just really wanted to take part in the room as I have been thinking about it for so long! Rhonda and I were able to tackle the bottom and some of the top (well, she tackled the top as there was no stepping on ladders for me!). There is just a small bit for hubby to do which he will finish this coming Monday!

The room is down to 3 pieces of furniture: the crib, a chair and my scrap booking table. The scrap booking table will go whenever someone strong and manly visits our residence to help hubby. I told hubby to ask our neighbor but he said he would like for our neighbors to like us and whomever moves that table will not like us. I don't think it is that heavy?!?

Anyhow, I am sooo excited to have the painting over because then I can start paying attention to room details. I think the first thing I will get is some decals from ETSY. I have some pretty cherry tress blossoms picked out. Whatever I decide I know it will be fun. I was so nervous about my pregnancy for months but I feel like I have let that go and I am totally immersing myself in all things baby. It's really quite fun once you get started!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Buffalo Wild Wings

When I was going to Michigan State University, my friends and I would always go to BW3's for hot wings. They always had a variety of flavored wings from Honey BBQ to steaming hot, hot, death wings. Wings and a beer were just the thing to satisfy a busy student's appetite. When we frequented BW3's it was a dive bar but by the time my brother graduated from MSU they swapped locations for a building across the street and turned the name to Buffalo Wild Wings and the restaurant became more like a chain thing. Well, color me shocked the other day when we went to the movies and I saw a Buffalo Wild Wings being built in the AMC Burbank 16 complex. Apparently, after looking on their website they are one of the fastest top 10 chains in the US. So of course I had to introduce the hubby to one of my favorite college treats. I don't think he is so much a fan of chicken wings so we got boneless chicken wings a.k.a. tasty little chicken chunks in two of the flavored sauc...

Everyone is Having Kids

Yesterday, one of my roommates from the Burbank years gave birth to a little girl. This is her third child. While I am so completely happy for her this happy celebration has gotten me thinking about children and nosey people who ask me when I am going to have them. Some might think this subject is it too personal for blog talk but I figure if people want to bud into my business by asking me about kids then I can bud into yours by talking about them. I realize that I am physically old enough to have kids but being physically old enough isn't enough for me. Today, as I looked at my friend's blog describing her birthing experience, I realized the only reason I am thinking about children so much lately is because so many darn people are asking me about them. Every single friggin day I run into "Patty" at work. I have known her for a very long time and while I know she was super happy for me when I got married, I am so not happy about her enthusiasm about me having bab...
