Stomach bug, house & photography

Yes, you read correctly....stomach bug. It has wiped me out. I think Rick's had a mild version (to me it seems mild.) I've been doubling his trips to the potty and his lasted a couple days while I'm definitely on day 5. I'm not going to complain for the whole post though, everything else is going pretty good for us.

The house is 99% finished and our loan is being processed. Closing date is set for March 17, if everything goes according to plan. Here are some of the latest pics.




I'm gonna be cooking lots of yummy stuff in here!

I love the trim and the doors!

My photography has really seemed to pick up lately. I really feel like that is what God wants me to be doing. He's made it quite obvious recently. I've had lots of interest from the bridal show (Feb. 21) and from weddings I did last year. It's really exciting. It's my dream and...the more photography I can do, the longer I can stay home with my boy.

Speaking of the boy, I guess I couldn't write without mentioning him. He's been an angel lately. I mean we still have non-stop craziness at our house and toys, blankies, etc. strung out all over the house, but that's normal I guess. I found a toothbrush in my drawer the other day when I was looking for my shorts. :) He has been the sweetest thing lately. He's in a very attached phase right now. With both me and Rick. He kind of has a melt down when either of us leave (not easy- Rick leaves every morning.) He's also addicted to his blankies! Every time we go to bed/nap, he gets to pick out a blankie from his massive collection. He usually picks 3. He will lay his head down on my shoulder, but only after I drape his blankies on me. He will then pat my arm if I haven't started patting him yet. When he wakes up, he cannot wait to get OUT, but not until he hands me all 3 blankies. We walk around with them for a little, then find toys to play with instead.

The house is looking awesome! I can't wait to see it when it's finished!
Sorry you have the stomach bug, I'm guessing that's why you never called me back :)

Oh, I LOVE THE HOUSE!! (Please get as addicted to blogging as I am so I can be kind of nosy :) The button is awesome! Matt looked into all the different features I wanted and we decided to let them go ahead and do it. I feel kind of terrible you went to all that trouble!! But I will probably let you help me add some more things like that?? If you'll forgive me for putting you to work! :) So far, we're not sick either...I hope Benjamin is feeling ok. Back to the house, I love the door trim, too! I can't wait to see it in person and again, yay for blogging!
