Ok so no baby yet. I am now 38 weeks and counting. So I thought it was about time I just got back on this blogging bandwagon and got you all caught up.

As I have mentioned before, in light of a certain rodent in our house, we ended up gutting our kitchen and installing new cabinets.

Here are some pictures of the progress:


The right side of the kitchen BEFORE. We got a little demo happy before I remembered to take a picture.
right side.
Right side bottom done.

The tile went up too high so we started to tear it off. Only it took the wall with it. Hence the big hole.
Hole fixed.

Almost there!
Yay! Don't mind the dishes. It didn't take me long to move back in.
The right side is done. Just have the painting and tiling to finish. My husband did a great job.

The left side of the kitchen BEFORE.
All gutted.
Man I love the color of these cabinets!
My favorite section. We had zero drawers before. And we were able to miraculously find an already pre-cut section of counter top that just happened to match the counter on the other side.
And the finished product. Still have handles and painting to do but at least I have my kitchen back!!

Plus ...I haven't seen traces of or heard a mouse since! All worth it just for this reason alone.

Blah

no baby and no desire to post anything right now.

definitely not for lack of things going on.

i'm just plain tuckered out right now and have been using my energy stores for things like getting food on the table and hauling myself up and down my stairs every time i have to pee.

pray for me that this baby comes healthy and if God willing soon. i'm 37 weeks and considered term. so anytime would be nice.

sigh.

Going to continue to be away from the computer for awhile. Had a very nice week back home visiting family. Now we have visitors at our house for a week. My sister-in-law and her two kids are staying with us while she is a hunting widow. 'Tis that time of year.

Will post again when life settles down ~ at least we should get a break before the baby comes.
