Labor Day Weekend

I haven't found a whole lot to write about yet as not a lot of big events have been happening, but I'll try to cover the latest.

We have finally located all of the parts to the vintage crib that we will be using. Not all of them are in the same location yet, but we're working on it. This is the same crib that the four Quade boys were in when they were infants. As Bill and Alan were looking for some of the parts in the attic of the shed, the news slipped to some friends of theirs as Sam toted along to "help look for whatever it was they were looking for". I guess these things are bound to happen. Bill and Alan are going to rework the crib slots as they currently don't meet up with safety specifications on spacing.

Bill was hard at work on the past few days on sanding down the dresser and drawers that once stored all of his work clothes and such. This dresser is going to be used in the nursery. Bill is anxious for me to pick out paint colors so that he can get started painting it and the bookcase. Patience, my dear, patience. We're planning on finding out the sex of the baby, but that is still a few weeks away. Then I will be better able to pick out a color scheme.

We finally got part of the landscape lights up around the front of our house on Monday. We've had these lights unopened in the box for almost 6 years! We received them as a wedding present. So it seems we just keep doting the place up a bit as time and money allow.

Other than that, my plate is full with trying to find a decent paying full time job with good benefits. I have some leads, so keep praying!
