November Happenings!

Our weather has been perfect this November. Our temperatures have been relatively mild and we have yet to see snow! At this time of year I count this as a huge blessing!

Seth had his annual "committee meeting" with all the professors that will hopefully be granting him his PhD in the future. It went "well" in Seth terms which means it went really well. It's strange to think that we could be done sometime next year, maybe...

We finally got all the pieces together for the little boys bunk beds. They were busting out of their toddler beds but look tiny in their huge twin beds. They were going crazy with excitement as Seth assembled them. The difficult part came when it was time for bed and we had to explain to Matthew that he was not sleeping on the top. He cried himself to sleep for two nights in a row but has seemed to accept the bottom.

I am getting down to my last two months of pregnancy. Wow, only two months! Nope, it's more like, how in the world do I still have two months! I'm feeling ok and am grateful for a very supportive husband who listens to all my groans. Our little girl is growing fast and has turned very active, we can't wait to meet her.

My nesting instincts have really kicked in. Yesterday, I couldn't handle my red wall for another day. It was so dark and it made me feel like my kitchen was closing in on me. I've had it for over three years and have loved it until about a week ago. After a quick trip to Lowes, it's gone. It's strange that it took a million coats of red paint in different shades to achieve that wall and it was all gone in a matter of minutes! As is life! (they make amazing primers these days)

Sharon! Just found your blog and I LOVE IT! The boys' bed is so cute and their bedspreads are so adorable. I was just at Pottery Barn Kids today in Troy and it looks just like their Dr Seuss one that they have. It's really cute.
