Krista stopped over for a quick one night stay on her way to visit her brother in law last week. It was a very fun short visit with her. It will be nice once we are finished with all our renovations so we can have family and friends over for a real visit. Right now we can’t really have anyone over, all and any free time we get is put straight into renovations so we can get this house finished for the summer. The only time we don’t do renovations is when Sean is working on his school, which he is doing this weekend. He will be writing his thesis this weekend and then the only school left will be his final exams in the end of June. That is another reason we are trying to be finished for the summer because Sean will also be finished school so we will have nothing on our plate but to enjoy the summer.
We celebrated Mothers day with the boys tiling the kitchen backsplash and my mom and I taking care of the kids while trying to work on my garden. We got a lot done in the garden area which was really needed. The previous owner let all the gardens grow over and turn into grass and moss. We planted a bunch of flowers after removing the grass and edging it. Sean attempted to make my hedges a regular size and shape but had no success. We decided we will use the neighbors Gardner to get our hedges off to a good start. He is pretty reasonable priced if we do the clean up.
These pictures are of how the kids help me do laundry. It was all folded nicely before I cam to find this.
“Jordan don’t bug your sister!”
Friday night Katie May got her first tooth! She had a weird 5 minute freak out in the night which we later realized was her tooth coming in. I thought that was pretty good, only a 5 minute freak out then back to sleep. Hasn’t complained since. She now has both bottom teeth coming up at a regular speed. Jordan was nothing like this with his teeth. The poor guy would have them poke through and maybe a week later they would still be in the same spot or they would go up and down. Not fun for our little man. He got the last of his molar through about the same day Katie got her first tooth. Kaitlyn has been found sitting in her crib a couple of times now. She moves around the house by a weird kinda crawl, but she moves.
These pictures are from when our family came down with a really bad cold. JJ just watched TV in his sleeping bag all day.
Sean and I are finishing up the tile grout in the evening tonight, lucky us. I will get some pictures of the finished product once we are done. I still need to post pictures of our bathroom but have not found a mirror I like yet.
