Craig and I tried to squeeze every productive second out of his 3.5 day weekend. Of course it "helped" that Lucy was still contagious and we couldn't get distracted by little things like visiting with neighbors, church or my book club. A little bit of what we accomplished:
- Installed shoe molding in living room, dining room and hall
- Installed window trim on one window in the living room
- Replaced shower head for better pressure (Craig's wish) and easier baby spray-off (MacKenzie's wish)
- Replace light fixture in hall (more on that later)
- Install three more thresholds (four down, just one to go!)
- After months of disagreement and indecisiveness, finally picked not just one but two rugs for the house and actually ordered them!
- Clean most of the old apartment in preparation for checking out
- Hung curtains in three rooms
- Started installing dryer vent. Hopefully this will get finished soon as I am having to dry everything on racks until then.
So after a week, the house is pretty much put together. We still need to finish up a couple projects and the basement is a mess, but most things (clothes, electronics, furniture) are actually located where they will end up. Which means pretty soon I get to start decorating!
But one of the biggest accomplishments that wasn't listed above was we finally got out the camera and recorded Lucy playing peek-a-boo. We've been meaning to do this for about a month now and it will be old news to anyone who saw her over Christmas, but she is just so darn cute, I couldn't help but post it:
Love it!!
