I know...some of you aren't very happy I quit blogging for a while...Jill :o)...but after we moved, we have been tirelessly working to get some major updates done to the house before Blay's big day this weekend.
We have painted and stripped wallpaper in 4 rooms now and replaced lighting, counters, backsplash, faucets, etc in a lot of areas. The house is a newer house just built by an older couple so we are modernizing it to fit us! We are in a stetch to do the big stuff before Saturday.
What's Saturday??? BLAY WILL BE 2!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe it. I have already been getting reary eyed just thinking about it. I look back at when he was born and his 1st birthday last year and can't believe it is here again. They grow soo quickly. I am so happy I get to spend this time with him at home. I would of missed out on so much with him!!!!
Blay has had a couple of first in the last week or so. He touched his first snake, yes, snake. And he's been stung by a bee...twice now. Luckily, I don't think he's going to be allergic to them like I am but I do still keep a close eye on him just in case he flares up to them.
Blay loved the snake. He wanted to 'hold it', and 'touch it', and 'kiss it'. Those are his 3 favorite things to do with just about anything, or anyone at this point in time. John held it's head still so he could touch it and stuff. We think it was just a little garden snake or something. Not real sure.
Blay loves his new house. He gets a whole wing to himself pretty much. He's got what John calls a 'suite' with a bonus room. We are using the sunroom as his play room. The toys end up in other areas of the house but he has done pretty good about putting them back or helping us put him back.
Well, I need to get off of here and go paint another coat on the railing of the front porch!!! Before it rains. I promise, I wll have pictures on the next posting and will update Picasa with August and Junes just as soon as I can.
Love to all!!!
