blessing day

I kinda forgot to post these! And I just found them on the computer. Steve blessed Wyatt on Thanksgiving at grandma's house. It was such a great day and I was so hapy that we were able to do it. Steve did great and so did Wyatt. He stayed pretty quiet through the whole thing! I wish I would have thought to get a picture with Steve, Court, Byron, Jesse, and Wyatt but I spaced it. Anyway, it was a fabulous day and I just love him. I can't remember how my life was without him and I don't want to!

3 weeks!

I wanted to hold three fingers up and say three weeks over and over again the way robin does when talking about her next date with Byron and Lynda. She gets so excited. However... in aproximately 3 weeks I will be able to move back into my own place. And I bet you that I am more excited than Robin is about her 2 weeks until date night! For those of you who have no idea what i'm talking about, Robin is my moms sister who is handicaped. She can't wait to go on date night with my unlce Byron and aunt Lynda, they are clearly her favorites and she lets us all know!

I was a little disappointed that they granite place is 3 weeks out, but it's okay. I enjoy getting the help from my family with Wyatt. They are so fabulous. Heck, my mom even did my laundry yesterday. She's probably scared I am going to fall apart at the seams with everything going on in my world right now. Sometimes I can be quite the wreck. But things are working out just fine, as Chad kept telling me they would. Wow, thanks Chad. haha I'm a brat.

Today at work was literally nuts. Wyatt wasn't feeling to hot and just wanted to be held pretty much most of the day. Sometimes I wish that he would pick a more convienent day to not feel well. haha right. I had to finish up with some clients while my boss ran off to meet with another one of our clients Bob. Bob is fantastic and thinks I'm just the greatest thing ever. I bet he wants me to be his grand daughter. But back to the real story. So, I'm going over their Buyer documents and then having them sign a purchase contract for a home they are buying. Which...simple, although i'm not supposed to be doing so we'll just keep that on the DL ya heard! But it wasn't simple. I had to explain pretty much every paragraph, he read through everything and then I had to make about a million changes to it all. I was starting to get a little impatient. And then he made a fuss about his name and was worrying about the way title would record this all to the county. I know this is all a bunch of mumbo jumbo to most of you so sorry. He wanted just his first initial and his wifes first initial and then their last name... no full names. After a call to his lender she ok'd it and I went to change the docs ONCE again. At this point I had been with them for an hour and it was now six, and I was getting things wrapped up, he sends me an e-mail and then tells me not to forward it on to anyone besides my boss. At this point I was like dude you have to be kidding me. I'm sure the look on my face said it all when his wife kinda chuckled and said "she obviously didn't see the e-mail address that it came from" which no I didn't. So she goes, he works for the FBI. HERRO!!! You know, if they would have explained this earlier I would have understood his reasons for being so funny about everything. So I now know a federal employee, and I know where he will be residing in Utah, and No I will not tell you where.

So that's my day. I had a lot to say. I hope all is well with you all!
Love!

the home in progress!

Okay, so here are a few pictures. The before pictures are on my computer at home...which is not hooked up at the moment. So here are these! The first photo is on my family room...full of nothing but...New appliances!! YAY and some tile and lighting stuff, but you get the gist. The second one is of all my cabinets, in their boxes :) But there is a sample picture of what my vanity looks like, which is what all of my cabinets look like! Then there is a picture of the kitchen, and Ryan in my laundry room grinding my floors so that the tile guy can do his thing. Then we have the bathroom and a view of the tub. And pictures of Ryan after his dirty job! I'm really so excited, stressed out of my mind! but i can't wait for the final outcome.!

where have all the good men gone?

so today just wasn't the most fabulous day ever. my little man is all stuffy so we have to wake up at various times throughout the night too "snork" out his nose. which he hates, so it makes it sad. needless to say last night we didn't get much sleep. anyway, for some reason chad weasled his way back in (not completely!), and he promised to help do a lot of the work on my house. he was going to save me money so why not. well after today and speaking with his girlfriend that i didn't know existed and finding out that men like him (lynette i think you can relate) don't just get better overnight...i'm having to find new help :) i'm not really sure why i let him help out in the first place. other than he has this magic man dust or something. it's horrible. although it was an answer to a prayer. not the way i wanted the answer to come. but i'll take it!

but really? where are the good men? i think we need to gather a search party and find them all.

so after this long day my mom and i went to home depot, i picked up my tile, and paint and everything is going to be just fine! all cabinets will be in next weekend, the bathroom should be finished this week and hopefully by christmas we'll be good to go! which reminds me i still need to take pics... i'll get on that!

i'm over remodeling

so the work on my condo is coming along nicely! i couldn't be happier about it...although it has stressed me out to no other (i think i'm really stressed about other things, but placing the blame on the remodel is easier). i will take some pictures of the progress thus far. i have before pictures of the kitchen, but not the bathroom. sorry. and um, someone pray that no one has broken into my house. i went and unlocked it this morning for the plumber and um, he didn't end up coming and i never had time to go lock it back up. *fingers crossed* and thanks to chad coming though on helping with a ton of things i'm saving lots of money. he may be a dinkus, but he's the only man in my life who's offered to help. so i'll take it. so in the meantime... here are pictures of the cutest kid ever! oh and... the new layout deleted the links to most of you... and kate and lynette have hidden their blogs so that I can't get your links. nerds.

my little punkin nugget

so today we went to see dr memmott for wyatt's 4 month appointment. i'm pretty sure wyatt had deja vu, because the second we put him on the table he did his freak out cry! it was so sad. so i got to hold him for his examination, which he did a little better. but i think he knew what was about to come shortly after that. and it only gets worse as they get older... their cry is more developed and they can really belt out a scream. so of course i was devistated, poor little guy was so upset. however, he's a TALL little boy. He is now 27 inches long and is in the 100 percentile for his age group. but he's a skinny one, weighing in at a wopping 13 lbs! lol he's like 30th for weight. so that's our update for the day! followed by some way cute pics courtesy of kate page!

4 months

It has been 4 months today since my little one arrived and suprised us all. I can't believe how fast the time goes! He's so amazing and so fun! He just started to roll over about a week ago. He's such a tough little guy. Tomorrow I get to take him for his 4 month check up. I'm not excited about the shots, but my doctor last time said that we would start to introduce some cereal!

Work has been good. We are getting busy and my boss finally gave in and held Wyatt, now she won't put him down. It's hillarious. I went and bought him a jumparoo and he loves it. It occupies some time while i'm working. He's so good though and is such a happy baby.

I'm about to start my remodel. I'm totally nervous and excited about it at the same time. I have my cabinets and countertops ordered, i'm pretty sure i found the tile that i want and i have my track lighting picked out and all the colors. It's been crazy and there are still those small details. I will be happy once it's done! I'm thinking it will be done by christmas.

And that's pretty much my life. Love you all and hope all is well!
