The roof is done!

Hooray!

Now, we’re just waiting for the bathrooms and kitchen floor to be finished.

But it’s getting better! I think the toilet will make it out of the bathtub today in this bathroom, and then we start on the 2nd bathroom which shouldn’t be nearly as bad.

The kitchen comes next, but there aren’t any toilets involved there.

We’re having a (hopefully) big clean up/moving work party on Saturday, that Nate hasn’t informed anyone about yet. I hope we get helpers. We’re having one of those enormous dumpsters delivered today, and the dumb gray couch in the family room, that I’ve always hated, is going in first. Now that it’s lost its spring, it no longer serves a purpose and can go away guilt free.

Tuesday night, I had my first baby shower of the season. The moms in Olivia’s class at school threw a shower for me and another mom expecting a boy around the same time, who happens to be a friend also.

I now have significantly more little sleepers! This is a good thing. I now have a diaper bag as well. Also good. And I have to say, having never been to a “double” shower before, it was tremendously fun. Betsy and I both sat on the red, suede couch, opening our matching presents. I can’t exactly articulate why, but it was so much more fun than doing it alone.
