Trying to get everything done

I am quickly approaching my due date, and am trying to get so many things done.  I am due on the 24th, however the baby is breech.  So we have a c-section scheduled for September 22nd. So we know we have just a few more weeks left. I needed to get some green beans canned, so the whole family pitched in and helped.

We finally got the baby's room finished.  I LOVE how it turned out.  I think it might be my favorite room in the house.

My office threw me a baby shower.  It was super sweet.  We were supposed to be doing a potluck breakfast, and it turned out to be a shower.  It was fun.

Remodel

We have decided to remodel our bathroom. The shower tiles have started coming off and we aren't quite sure how we can fix it. We have decided we are just going to redo the shower. We used Rebath and selected material that looks like tile but it is all one sheet.

This is what it currently looks like.



Starting to take off the tiles









It was fun to watch the progress.














They got it all done in one day.  It was so nice that it went that quickly.  We did have to wait about a day to shower, but with it being a weekend, it was just fine.  I am so happy with the way it turned out. I think it looks great. And now we don't have to worry about any tiles falling off anymore.

Finally!!!

About a week before Christmas, our dishwasher went out.  So we have been washing dishes for about 3 months.  We were finally able to go look for dishwashers.  We found a really good deal on a dishwasher and it came today.  I am so excited to be able to use a dishwasher again.  I guess I am lazy, but it is so much easier to do the dishes when you can just throw them in the dishwasher.  Jon got it all installed and it is working great!  I am so glad that we finally have a dishwasher!!

Another Home Project

Jon and I got ambitious over the weekend and decided to do a couple of home projects.  We were finally able to get soil for our 3rd garden box.  We are excited.  We are hoping to have a good garden this year so we will be able to can more vegetables.  With more room we should be able to grow more vegetables.  Here is our new planter box.

All we need to do now is plant the seeds.  By fall this should be full of beans.  :)

Another project we tackled this weekend was painting the bathroom.  When I first bought the house, I painted all the bedrooms and the kitchen.  I hadn't gotten around to painting the bathroom.  Jon and I talked and thought it would be fun to do a beach theme in the bathroom.

Here is the bathroom before.  Needless to say, I did not like the colors that were there.

Jon did a lot as far as painting, because he had to do all the high parts because I couldn't reach. I guess that is one advantage to being vertically challenged. :)

We chose to do two colors.  One wall is a dark teal color, and the other walls are a turquoise color.  The trim is white.  We love it.

Disregard the shower curtain.  Of course we will be getting a new curtain, but for now we just need to have one to shower.  We are also looking for some fun beach decorations.  Every time I walk into the bathroom I just smile.    It was a fun quick home improvement project.
