A May Update

We had another full but fun weekend. The Walk for Life went well on Saturday morning... I hadn't been to the zoo in over 20 years! I forgot just how cute giraffes are! :) **Thank you to everyone who pledged to support us! You'll receive something in the mail in a few weeks to fulfill your pledge.**

We finally found a changing table/dresser at a consignment shop this weekend, so now painting it is next on the project-list! I'm also still searching for some modern fabric to reupholster our cheap glider with! Check out this cool glider makeover - I'm hoping mine will turn out that well. I'm hoping to make some progress on both of these by the end of this weekend. With only 10 weeks left, it really feels like time is flying!

We've gotten lots of calls & emails about our condo, but no one has actually come to see it yet. We do have an appt. set for tomorrow, so hopefully they'll show up! We've worked our butts off to get it sparkling clean several times only to have people stand us up... frustrating for sure, but it's probably the cleanest we've ever lived! We're getting close to our cut-off time... but we're still hopeful. As much as we'd love to sell it though, the thought of moving before July is definitely a bit daunting! But God's in control so we're just along for the ride!

Getting Antsy

I love to decorate. I've been brainstorming nursery ideas since long before we were even pregnant.... it's just my thing - I enjoy it! So here's the dilemma: since we are hoping to sell our condo... it doesn't make much sense to paint and decorate a room in our current home when we're hoping there's still a chance we could move before BabyW. arrives.

But...I still really want to! My logical side has been holding me back... but now that we're only like 10 weeks away from July, I'm really getting restless to setup his room. Our original plan was that if the house hadn't sold by June 1st, we'd decorate then... but that's not leaving much time! And we already have 2 weekends full in June. Hmmm... maybe I'll just get some paint samples this weekend. :) I really LOVE this idea for the walls... but maybe I'll just go simple, and forego the stripes since there's a hopeful possibility we won't be living here too long. But aren't the stripes great?! (sigh...) What do you think? Vote on the right.
