Whew! A busy January

It's a lot of work getting ready for a new baby! We have converted our office/playroom into Maddox's new room. Finding a new home for all the "stuff" that was in that room has been a challenge. We love our house and are thankful that we have 4 bedrooms, but we could really use a separate office. Oh well, we are going to make it work!

Maddox's old room will now be the baby's room. Both bedrooms have gotten a new paint job as well as the den, foyer, and hallways. Two bathrooms to go and the painting will be done for now. The master bedroom and dining room could use a fresh coat, but that will have to wait!

Our house has been a wreck pretty much all month and it's about to drive me crazy! Our schedule is pretty hectic this semester, too. The kids and I have school/work three days a week. Kindermusik one day and my junior league placement at the UCP preschool the other day. Of course, we have church on Wednesday nights and Sundays. Saturdays have been painting/organizing days pretty much all month! I'm now in the third trimester of my pregnancy and running out of energy! Britt has been really busy with work and church stuff, too.

We have found some time to play! Here are a few cute pictures of the kids from a couple of weeks ago.

Maddox is turning into such a big boy and Briley is talking more and more every day. They are at cute ages right now. They are playing together more. Briley loves to hold Maddox's hand when we are walking into school in the mornings. If they start fussing with each other, Briley will say "tiss, tiss" (kiss) and lean over to kiss her brother!

She is saying short sentences now such as "Where's Dada?" and "Look, look, there's a dog"!
