Well, it's been quite awhile since my last post. I've been pretty busy around the house installing some new things we received around the holiday season and building some things to organize some things we purchased during the holidays. We've changed the "Man Room" around a bit, We stacked and turned the washer/dryer to make more room for seating in front of the TV and with the help of Jeff, I built a cabinet/shelfing system to house the washer dryer and cut down on the noise a bit. It looks pretty good, I'll post some pics in the near future when I have a moment. Jeff and I also installed a new bathroom fan in the main bathroom. We got a little confused on the wiring, so I ended up hiring an electrician friend to come out and finish it up. Jeff helped me run a new icemaker water line under the house so we now have an icemaker and water dispenser in the kitchen on our fridge. Next up for household projects is installing the bamboo hardwood flooring in the 2nd bathroom and entry doorways Jaime bought with her Christmas money. I've never done that before, so it should be fun, what could possibly go wrong??! ;)
McKenna is growning up fast. She's 2-1/2 months old already. She's starting to smile and giggle when you make funny faces or tickle her and she is trying to talk a little bit as well. It all comes out as "GGGOOOGGGDDDDRRRR!". Yeah, she's advanced. :-0 I've started sleeping back in our main bedroom again as she is almost sleeping through the night. Jaime feeds her at 9pm before we go to bed and then again at 5am or so.
Jaime went back to work for a few days at the beginning of the month and is kinda of hit and miss until our daycare starts up in February. We're still trying to figure out how we can work less and be at home with McKenna more when Jaime does go back to work. I think that will be a never ending battle.
Jaime, McKenna and I visited my mom in Moses Lake this weekend. My brother Shawn came down as well and we fixed up a few things around her house. "Grandma Joy" watched McKenna while Jaime, Shawn, and I went to see King Kong at the theatre. It was pretty good but waaaay too long. The CGI was excellent, Kong was realistic, and Jack Black was funny. All in all a 3-1/2 diaper rating out of 5.
Other recent movies and their ratings:
Wedding Crashers = 3-1/2 diapers
Red Eye = 4 diapers
Into the Blue = 4-1/4 diapers (most of that is for Jessica Alba)
Must Love Dogs = 4 diapers
Fantastic Four = 3-1/2 diapers (most of that is for Jessica Alba)
Nip Tuck (Season 2) = 4 diapers
Thankfully LOST is back on TV with new episodes now, if you haven't got hooked yet, it's not too late! (The Title of this blog is taken from the episode last week)
I hope all is well with you and yours and that you had a wonderful Christmas and New Years. I know ours was splendid.
Until next time....
