I’m not a juggler. In fact, I like to focus on one thing…get it accomplished…and move on to the next.
However, with it being crunch time until the baby arrives, we are on a mad race to get MANY projects completed before my life becomes too full of kiddos to think about projects.
Our biggest project we have started…the POOL!
Luckily, all of my decision making for the pool project is over. You know. Shape. Size. Liner style. Granite color for the step. Concrete layout and color. ETC.
I never knew that a pool had so many options. Geez.
Now it’s the pool guys turn to execute! They started a little on Saturday, but the main digging starts TODAY! They are saying 3 weeks till completion! I told them, “take your time buddy…I don’t plan on sporting a swimsuit until this babybelly is gone.”
Just sayin’.
The next project. The nursery.
I am so excited about Sloane’s room. The painter finished last week and here is a sneak peek at the walls (picture from my phone).
I will take better ones once we have the room set up. Right now…Sloane doesn’t even have a bed. I guess that’s another project I need to add to my list. Darn. I hate when I come up with more things to think about.
We moved the glider to the nursery this weekend so at least we have a start. The boys thought it would be fun to ride in the chair as daddy moved it from one room to another.
Is this a sign that Bents is no longer my baby? Oh man.
I did get the custom bedding and curtains delivered for the nursery too! I CAN NOT wait to show you how cute they turned out. Again, probably gonna need a bed first before I can show off bedding. 🙂
And our last BIG project. Home office re-do.
That’s right. My dad is completely re-doing our home office. Building custom bookshelves and a built-in desk. This is a picture from last week of him working hard.
He has turned his garage in to a work space.
Actually, yesterday he turned it in to a paint shop. He’s pretty creative like that.
I am overly excited about this home office project. Why, you ask? BECAUSE I ADORE BEING ORGANIZED!
And with my dad’s talent…this home office is going to be everything I imagined and then some! Including butcher block counter tops for a desk top!
As you can see, the next 6 to 8 weeks are going to FLY by for me. I am trying to enjoy my last few weeks of pregnancy and my life with just 2 kids. I have a feeling…life ain’t about to slow down when the baby comes.

I may be just as excited for you as you are for yourself!!! The nursery looks FAB! Cannot wait to see the finished product! The boys, adorable in that chair! And your dad? Well he’s nothing short of amazing! Can I come swim when it’s done?

I swear I don’t know how you supermoms do it all, I can barely manage one teenager and still can’t figure out where all my time goes! I love the nursery, the stripes are awesome -I can’t wait to see it all finished (but no rush -LOL)! Your dad is amazing -what talent!
