No naps for the sleepy


My sweet girl is fighting napping, as usual, but I thought I would take a second to update. We got all of our furniture in finally. It all came within a week, except the table, which they ordered the wrong one. So they reordered & we got it also. I also decided to redo our guest bathroom. I've been wanting to for a while, but couldn't find what I wanted to do it in. I really like it. We were going to have to get a new soap dispenser anyway, since ours broke, but I guess I went a bit overboard. =)

New, not glass coffe table & end tables.

Our dining room. Now I can show off my china!


I did this painting to match our shower curtain.


Now that wall doesn't look so bare!




Now to other stuff. Last Friday, my great-grandmother passed away. Although I know she is much better off (she had severe Alzheimer's), it is still sad because Madelyn never got to meet her great-great-grandmother. Her funeral was Monday. Other than it being a bit chaotic at first (the downpour didn't help any), it turned out very nice. My dad did the service, and it was really great. Now others have recruited him for their services - I thought that was amusing. Of course, I am easily amused. Madelyn did well for all the travel & noise involved. My family is very loud...Otherwise, not much new to report. Madelyn is doing great, other than fighting naps. She is loving cereal since I thickened it up a bit. She flirts with her daddy all the time, and there are some things only mommy can make better. We love our girl so much, & can't imagine life without her!

sorry to hear about your great grandmother! We buried Tim's grandfather Monday as well, it is amazing how draining all of that can be!
Love the new stuff and Madelyn's pouty lips

I think Friday would be best... unless Corban's doc calls and we have to do something different for him....
