New Boy's Bathroom
















Over the course of the last week, We did a makeover of the peach and floral guest bathroom to remodel it for our little boy. So, what says little boy better than frogs?

Joshua was super curious about the painting process and he was quite watchful, from the safety of his walker. Mike was amazing: he removed the entire toilet so I could paint that whole wall without interruption. He also removed all the hardware and mirror from the walls and ceiling. In case that wasn't sweet enough, he also brought me a dozen deep red roses yesterday!

As you can see from the photos, we painted the walls aloe vera and the trim one shade darker. For decoration, I found a great dark copper sun with green streaks and several adorable frog pictures to place in a collage frame. The towels, bath mat, and soap dispenser were purchased as a set and inspired the paint color. By the way, the soap dispenser says, "Ribbit, ribbit" when you push on it to get soap. No detail left undone, huh?

Two Weeks until Our Due Date!


It's amazing to realize that we are now two weeks from our due date! Joshua is in position now (and dropped). Friday's ultrasound looked great - he's approximately 6 pounds 12 ounces and very active. We're glad he didn't decide to break any records, like that Indonesian baby in the news this week who weighed 19 pounds at birth. Joshua will be a respectable (and convenient) 7 to 8 pounds.

Sam and Amy got married yesterday and we were so glad Joshua stayed in for the event. The wedding was beautiful, complete with a sunny day be a pond with the trees changing color and heartfelt vows the couple wrote. It was so nice to meet Amy's family and have so many of Sam and Mike's relatives in one spot.

Little Shoes


This is probably silly to feel so tender-hearted, but I was very touched by these little shoes we got for Joshua. Look how little and cute they are on the doormat beside my foot!
