New Baby Picture!

Katie had a doctor's appointment today to make sure everything was going well. They did an ultrasound and what a change from the first picture. You could see the baby VERY well and it was moving around. The doctor even gave it a little poke and the baby started doing 360's! It was AMAZING! So, here's the new picture of Baby Pidge! It definitely made it feel more real for both of us.
For those who can't see it - the baby is facing forward and you can see the face, body, little arms (one of them is waving "hi") and the little feet at the bottom. What a miracle!

The Crazy Guest Room . . . is BEAUTIFUL now!

John finally took the challenge on of the dreaded "Florescent Yellow & Purple" room! Needless to say it needed a coat of primer and then paint.

Oh the fun!
Yes, even the closet was painted to match the room. Wasn't that nice of them :)It looked 100 times better just with the primer on.Before . . .
After! We think this might be our favorite transformation yet! Now it's a calm, relaxing room instead of a blinding mess.

Before . . . very florescent.


After!



While John painted the guest room, Katie's mom (who had a broken foot) graciously offered to do the "hall" (which we had been dreading to do too). She gimped her way around and did a great job!The hall with all the "cutting in" done.The finished product! It's hard to tell in pics, but it's so much brighter!

Kichen Painting!

The Kitchen! Our neighbor, Bryan, graciously offered to help paint the kitchen one night (since Katie can't paint now). It still needs some final touches, but it looks like a totally different place!

Here they are starting the process - Butt to Butt!
Johnny, ready for the painting to be done and it almost is! Almost the final product. We are putting moulding where the white and rust color meet.
The "breakfast" area! Before . . .
After! What a difference :) We like! Last job in the kitchen is a new floor!
