Since February we have been working hard to frame and finish the basement and then we moved the big girls down in their rooms.  Our plan was to rip out the carpet upstairs and paint the three rooms upstairs before we had the carpet laid.  It was a race to the finish, but it has all worked out.  We  have the babys room painted and the changing table done, but we are waiting for the Crib They are not going to ship that until the middle of May.  It will probably work out ok since he will probably sleep with us in the pack and play for a while whilst his mother is feeding him.  We are really hoping that the Ultrasound is correct or a little girl is going to really have to love Blue.  That Dark Blue below the Chair rail was a difficult color to paint.  Took about 5 coats.  The girls all slept in their own rooms last night.  I thought that Hailey would not make it all night.  She has been on the floor of our room for the last 2 weeks because of the all the construction going on, but she made it.  I also was a bit worried that she would fall out of bed since she has been in a trundle bed for a while, but nope.  All is well..... We are closer to having the house where we want it but I am tired of working on it and when I finish the bathroom downstairs, we may take a summer break and just play a bit......

I have not been very good about doing this.  I have been busy getting the basement done and getting ready for the new baby.  Kim is going to have a c-section in  18 days.  We are very excited.  Everything has gone well thus far.  She is doing well.  I finally got the FJ.  I went down to Moab for Easter Jeep Safari and picked it up.  I think the builders were more than happy to be rid of it.  It ran great.  I think that I may add a few creature comforts like 110V plug, Cigarrete lighter plug and an interior light.  I also need to hook up the heated seats and the heater.  I am not certain why they did not do this, but they did not.  I have a little tile to do in the bathroom downstairs and some painting to do.  We have to add cabinetry to Kims new craft room.  The girls really like to play down there.  We put in a little play room with a castle that we have cultured stone on the outside and and loft with a slide.  The slide is a tad steep and sends the littler ones careening into the wall.  I guess that it is our way of toughening them up.
