please excuse the horrible quality of the pics, they're from my phone... still haven't been able to get to whatever box has our camera charger...

Maternity Photo Shoot

So Christy and I had a photoshoot yesterday of the belly and I am so impressed with the pictures.

It's amazing how different you look in your head versus through a lens. Seeing these pictures made me feel so beautiful! I never thought that I would feel so pretty and confident at 32 weeks pregnant.

And it was a great feeling to SEE my hard work of losing weight from Colton (and before) and not gaining much with this pregnancy.

I'll put the tame ones up first...










and then here are some of the more artsy shots. They came out beautiful!!!





My favorite one:

Another room done!!!!!

Well, almost...

The kids bathroom is sooooo close to being done I can taste it!!!!! I only have two teeny tiny little things left to do, and it will be 100% done!!

Colton took his first bath in his new tub last night and man, oh man, was he in H-E-A-V-E-N!!!!! He was going crazy!! Just sooo in love with it!! And I love being able to give him a bath in a tub without a metal sliding door in the way. I'm going to have to wear rain gear while giving him baths though, because he got me SOAKED!!!!

Here are the pictures of the kids Bathroom:
before:



after:




And then just for fun... Here are some pictures of the kitchen:



And here is the babies room with the chair rail up:

The Family Room... a work in progress...

So here are some pictures of the family room as it was and as it is now... it's not done yet, this couch isn't going to stay, and neither is the entertainment center. The shopvac might stay, because it's so pretty and all.. and the mess in front of the fireplace will be gone as well as the two chairs that are in front of the fireplace... buuut here it with the beautiful new floors...

Oh yeah, we haven't had time to pull the tape down from the wood beams yet, or put the trim back up, so the room is far from done, but at least it has furniture and a FLOOR!!!


Then (the walls are textured wallpaper over awful 70's faux wood paneling, the carpet is beyond nasty)




Now... new flooring, paint (a beige) and new sheetrock...







and here is Miss Eloise "Weezy" Gerber doing what she does best... pester Jarro.



and this is how she sleeps...
