Happy One Month Patton!

It is amazing how much has happened in one month! At the end of this week, we will have a living room (which is the back of the house) for all the toys and a front room without clutter, which will be a first in this house! I have checked myself into the hospital two times (once for the birth of Patton and the second for a 2:00 am run to the emergency room due to mastitis). Only to discover that I too had a yeast infection in that same area, which caused Patton to have thrush! That was a great week. Needless to say, we are now on to liquid gold (Enfamil $30 at Sam's for the big jug of it). I would rather have 100 c-sections over getting mastitis again! We have lived in Hebron for a week, grandma Carlece has been the first to stay in our guest bedroom (and got up with Patton during the night...WooHoo for me!), and countless trips to Menards to get the finishing touches to our upstairs, upstairs bathroom/laundry room, and our living room.

All of us have healed/rested up (as much as we can) and are now on to stripping and refinishing all the woodwork that goes upstairs. We will be priming and painting the back room this week and we will be moved in to the back room by next weekend (now sleeping may not happen...but my sanity will be back!) Hopefully the dust of our remodeling will be settled for a while, so that we can enjoy the work of Casey and the help of others in our remodeled parts. So if you come over...just pretend to not notice the huge holes in the ceiling of our kitchen and downstairs bathroom:) and come see what we do have done!

We will be taking our one month pictures tomorrow (Monday) at the Svitak Portrait Studio...so stay tuned for more pictures.
