It's off to work we go! We have got lots to do before baby gets here in 7 months. We have some projects we are going to tackle in the coming months.
Project #1: The first one we are going to undergo is to make room for baby. Our spare room right now is our office/bedroom so we really don't have anywhere for our office stuff to go. Livy is getting the bed so that won't be a problem like I said it's mainly the office type stuff. After much talking and praying we are adding on to our house a sunroom where our concrete patio is and that will become the "home office". It will be heated and cooled so we can use it all year. We have called some sunroom people and they have come out and gave us estimates, and truly it's a bit high. A friend from John's work suggested that we just call a builder and have a room built on. A guy that John goes to Bible study with recommended someone that would be good and he came out to check things out a couple days ago. Hopefully we will hear how much his estimate is in a day or two. You know, we really don't want a lot of window like a sunroom would have, just a room with some windows and filler (wall) in between. Basically a room, I guess. While we're at it we are going to refiance our home while rates are good.
Project #2 is we are going to fix/tear out the shower window in our bathroom. The people that built the house in a bad job on the window in the first place, so we are going to tear that out, build a wall there and tile it over. The great part is that the builder left a box to tile in our garage when we bought the house. Yeah! At least that's one thing we don't have to purchase. As soon as the weather will stop freezing and doing a crazy roller coaster ride in temp. we will tackle that one.
Project #3 is a bunch of little stuff like making a garden, getting Livy's rod iron bed frame sand blasted and painted, mulching our flower bed, then after the whole sunroom or room thing is finished and organizing the office there's getting the baby's room ready (painting moving furniture etc.) , and getting Livy's room fixed. Ya know, stuff. Yikes!!!
Will I have any hair left after all of this?? By God's grace I sure hope so!! Jesus take the wheel!!

Sounds like a lot of work but it will be well worth it.
