I must say that I don't know what I would do without my mom and Sonya! Mom came up Saturday and helped me finish drawing the stripes on the wall. We would have gotten them all taped but we ran out of tape again! After about 4 rolls of tape I am sooo happy to report ALL THE STRIPES ARE TAPED OFF!!! Sonya even came over on Sunday and put the first coat of paint on them! I wanted to pull the tape off sooo bad! But she told me no! :( it does need another coat. Now I'm looking for a cool polka dot pattern. I want sporadic polka dots, nothing uniform, but I'm afraid that if I just draw them on my own then I'll get the colors messed up and have a blob of blue polka dots all in one spot, or green or yellow.
The yellow... Drama behind that! Mom and I was at Wal-mart looking at yellow paint. We found two colors. One I really liked and one I thought Brian might like. I really only wanted to give him a choice between two different shades. Thinking he would agree with the one I liked of course... WRONG! He liked the darker of the two and I like the bright cheery color of the two... To give you an idea of the yellows... In the words of Sonya... The one Brian likes looks like a breast feed baby's crap! Enough said there! The one I like isn't as bright as a lemon, kind of a dulled down lemon color. I actually think I'm going to win this argument because simply I will probably be the one getting the paint! Plus as I look at it I really don't like the darker one. The babies' room should be bright! :)
Anyway, hopefully I will get some pictures of the first coat of stripes posted soon. And by the way... If I ever say I want to paint stripes ever again just remind me of this experience. It is sooo Time consuming. It better look awesome!
Anyway, I can't believe it is only Monday! This weekend went by so fast. I worked my butt of! Cleaning house, Brian invited people over to watch the super bowl, then fell and hurt his foot so I was stuck cleaning all by myself on Sunday. I hope the week goes by fast! I have next Thursday off. More cleaning and hopefully arranging the basement. Brian tells me that he is having Plato come over Wednesday and help move the furniture back into the basement... Keep your fingers crossed! Then I am co-hosting a baby shower for a friend at my house next Sunday and then I have that Monday off! I can only hope the work day goes fast and the evenings go slow!
I'm in my 27th week, the start of my third Trimester! Holy cow! That means according to all the books I have like 10 weeks or less left with having twins! OH MY GOSH! We have another appointment on February 11th. Then after that they said I will probably go to weekly status for check ups. I'm seriously starting to freak out! Not so much about the house anymore, but in like 10 weeks these babies are going to be here! We have nothing, (showers are coming up) But oh my gosh! We don't have much time left! I'm starting to feel the pains and stuff more and more. Before they were just on occasion, but now there is a pain more often then not.
Anyway, I guess I should probably get some work done... Hope everyone had a good weekend. I hope to get pictures posted soon!
Later taters, Leslie :)
