So Tired

It's ours...it's really ours!
The work has begun, we're already tired. We closed on the house on friday afternoon. Saturday family came down (Buzz, Sue, Tricia and Taylor) and we did some stuff. Our neighbors Jenny & Mike stopped by and couldn't resist the enticing fun of peeling wall paper! Today we went and bought some stuff. Menards for some supplies and American for appliances. We ended up spending the whole day shopping around, so not much got done at the house. Okay, nothing got done. We did peel up a bit of the kitchen floor, no wood under there.

So what's going to all happen? What's the plan? We're going to work on the joint until Feb 22nd and then move in! During this time there will be much painting, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, floor refinishing...the list goes on forever!

I shoveled on saturday...there is A LOT of sidewalk out there! Corner lot and it seems really wide. A lot wider than the sidewalk in BD. And of course a longer driveway, of which I did as little as possible.

That's about it for now! Jake's doing awesome! Knock on wood; he's been doing awesome at night. I had 3 nights in a row of no waking up! Last night was a little off, and tonight I'm sure will be a little off...maybe not, I need to feed him some food (cereal stuff mixed with baby food carrots, divine!) and then hopefully a full night of sleep since it's so late. yeah, that's the ticket. How mad will he be when I wake him up? Hee! So far we eat banana, pear and carrots.

Get this! We were in Menards and I saw my college roommate Naomi! The last I knew they were out east, but moved back to Lake Geneva now which is just a bit down the road. Yay! It must be reconnection time because Greg also started talking to his old high school buddy again too. What a coincidence eh?

Alright, I'm frigging tired. I'll get more pictures of the house in progress. Greg's doing some demo this week in the kitchen, should be exciting!

Good Night.

Go Pack Go

I'm 5 months old today! And the Packers just started the NFC championship game. One more win and we go to that game on that Special Sunday in the NFL!

Remember when I was swallowed whole by this chair? Not no more!!!

Busy Exciting Weekend

We had a pretty good weekend this past weekend! We went to BD friday night, came back sunday night. We had my mom's side Christmas celebration complete with our first swimming lesson! I'll let the pictures do the talking as usual!

Grandma feeding me delicious cereal. I ate A LOT!
Porter got a spa day for Christmas and just returned. They put another silly scarf on him (if you recall he had one last year at Christmas time too down in Savannah.)

We were able to go over by Riley and get some new duds that he's grown out of...one of them being this great hat! Perfect for SuperBowl Sunday! Hee!

And here it is! Water submersion!

Ehhh, what the hey!

Plecchhhh, what was that! I'm alllll wet!

I'm bendy!
