This weekend was girls weekend away. So my Mom, sister, and I headed to Lititz, PA for a stay at an inn, some shopping, and leisure time. It was so nice to get away and take a break from the stresses of motherhood and the household.
Josh in a large part made this possible by understanding my need for a little "me" time before I am totally devoted to a newborn. Madi as a newborn was very demanding until about the 11 month mark, so we are both trying to prepare in case the second has a similar demanding schedule.
Well, you might be thinking that Josh slacked off on the house work since he was busy with a 19-month old, but this is not the case. Nana stepped in to watch Madi on Saturday, so that Josh could continue house renovations.
So here's the impressive update:
1. family room is fully painted!!!
2. bathroom is sanded and the second coat of spackle is applied.
3. living room (I know--how did this make it on the radar) has a few exposed nail holes filled, primed, and painted with their first coat.
Oh, and we picked out tile Friday night for the bathroom floor. So things are progressing nicely for our March 28th deadline. More updates later this week.

wow, you guys sure are doing a lot with that house! keith & i want to do so much to ours, but we need to stop having kids first i think.
Megan,
We are doing a lot with this house, and if you had seen the condition it was in when we bought it you'd understand! We knew we'd have to do a lot of this when we purchased it as the bathrooms all had carpet and the walls had hand prints and were written on. I will admit to being a little overwhelmed during our final walk through, as they didn't even vacuum after removing their furniture, so there were huge dust clumps all around.
Your house is beautiful, so don't worry, you're plans can wait until the kids are a little older. :)
