bathroom remodels

Here are the three bathrooms we remodeled. They aren't decorated yet but at least they are done. We kept the cabinets in the kids' bathroom but other than that new tubs, tile, fixtures, cabinets, countertops, electrical, toilets, etc. It was a lot of work but we are glad it is done. And one thing about remodeling in the country: it isn't always about finding your favorite things but just finding something in stock and available.

There is also a frog that lives under our house. It makes little noises at us all winter and finally he came up through a vent and Kate caught him. But because it was winter Kate and Kyle let it go back under the house so hopefully he can live until spring. A little weird but maybe a funny story to look back on nonetheless.

i guess it's time to sew a few things

Ella is sewing her baptism dress and I can't find any nursery bedding I love. So it's time to sew. Well, really, it's time to learn how to sew and then it's time to sew.

Ella and the baby are going to share. Aqua and pink are the colors of the day. Hopefully in five or six weeks I will have something worth posting. Also, I am on the lookout for a really feminine, really cute name if you have any in your back pocket. I told my doctor to pay attention to all the babies he's delivering and find me a cute one.
