3 Month Update in Pictures

1 comments
So Micah is offically 12 weeks old - and in a few days will be 3 months old! So glad I got my maternity leave changed so that I still have 5.5 more weeks at home with our little man. So here are some picture updates. He sure is growing! Here is Micah in the same outfit almost 2 months ago!

Loves his play mat!
                                               

Helping out with the laundry. Finally pulling his weight around here!

Loving my bumbo (almost able to sit in it alone)

Life is hard being this cute!

Okay - enough pictures already!

Back to the Grind

0 comments
Well now that Micah is getting a bit older, we have decided it is time to get back to some home improvement projects. We just couldn't stay away! Now our problem is picking which one to start - we have compiled quite a list over the last few months. Needless to say Andrew is extremely excited that I no longer have a giant belly, swollen feet, and lack of energy to keep me from helping out. We have been working on getting Micah to enjoy the Baby Bjorn so he can join us on the fun!


Here is our list
1. Paint the wall in the kitchen an accent color. Yes - paint again. I believe this will be the 4th different color on this wall. We have decided we need a bit more color in the kitchen area so we are thinking a dark blue/gray? Also some furniture rearranging will go on - just not sure where it will go!




2. Paint the half bath. Again - this will be the 4th different color of this bathroom. I refuse to paint again since I have done all the other paint jobs. This one is all Andrew!






3. Create a photo collage on the wall in the dining room area. Our inspiration comes from our favorite blog Young House Love. Check out their photo collage! Also we bought some curtains for the area that we want to hang up. The wall on the left is where we will put it!




4. Create some artwork for the kitchen area that has our accent color - orange. Yes, orange is going to be our accent. At first I was a little like - what? But I guess orange and blue (go Warriors!) are accents so we will see if this all looks good. I am warming up to it, but just worried we won't find much orange to go in the kitchen. Anyone seen any orange hand towels??




5. Finish the master bathroom - or start the master bathroom. We have never touched it (literally - we do not even use it!) This one might take a while longer (also we need some time to save some $$ to make it how we want it!)




So that is our list of things to do. We plan on starting some of them this weekend - and when I say some I just hope we get one partially finished! Things just seem to take so much longer with little Micah around. But that is okay - we are enjoying all of our snuggle time with him :-)
