In over my head...

Wondering where we have been? I have been wondering where all the time has gone. These past few weeks have been CRAZY! Dad finally came around to install some new lights in the kitchen...which led to massive holes in the wall. It turns out whoever wired this house originally didn't do it right and left some pretty dangerous connections hidden beneath the drywall. So a small hole to fish wire turned into a large 4 foot section being removed. I have to say though, it was all worth it. It is so nice to walk in the door and be able to flip a switch and see! (Oh, and we wondered what the switch went to for the longest time. It went to nothing! Just a switch not connected to anything.) So, for a period of time, there was no entrance into the kitchen without doing acrobatic moves, of which I am not too fond of at the present time. Now the kitchen is put back together and the dust has settled, literally. This house is a mess! Now it's time to clean this house from top to bottom.

I have also shot the last two weddings of the season these past two Fridays. It feels so good to be done with the shooting part of the weddings, but now is the tedious post-production part. I have to touch up all the pictures and then put lots of albums together. It's a process and I am getting slightly anxious about getting everything done before the baby gets here.

Talking about baby...here's the latest belly shot. This was from last week (28 weeks). Jason, Autumn and I all went to the doctors this past Monday. Autumn sort of understood that she heard a heartbeat and on the way out of the room she said, "That was fun." I am happy to report that I have gained 20lbs and by the measurement of my uterus (from the outside), I am right on track. Jason still thinks this is going to be an 8lbs+ baby. So help me god if it is.


Here's just a cute picture of crazy Sadie lady.


Today was the Fiestaware sale. Dad, Jason, Brian, Laura and Laura's Mom all went. We REALLY don't need any more dishes. But, if you know Jason at all, you can imagine how many dishes we came home with. I have no idea where all of this dishware is going to go. Dad got a couple nice dish sets for himself and Katie. It is a long day for sure, but it's fun to hunt for the plate/bowl/platter/anything with the least amount of defects on it.

Jason has been in hunting and work mode. I appreciate that this season is only a few months out of the year!
