What ... a post??

It must be a miracle. Well, in case you don't read my other blog, Baby M arrived (Nathan) on May 20th (read about it here). So, as you can imagine, work on the house has slowed considerably.

One thing we have done since Nathan was born is to get some more drawers installed in the kitchen. None of our drawers were sliding very well and we weren't sure if it was our workmanship or the sliders. We bought another type of slider and it totally fixed the problem - yay! So, we're slowly replacing the 'old' ones with the new ones. Peter recently cut out three drawer fronts and finishing them will be the next project.

Shortly after Nathan was born Peter's Dad came up and finishing crack-filling our bedroom closet. We finally got around to sanding and priming it in the past few days. This morning it looked like this (after Peter sanded it and I washed the walls):


And here it is after a coat of primer. A big difference!


The goal for this room is to get it painted (white) and the move in two portable hanging racks along with our dressers. Then we'll put the doors on (they've been in our back entryway for months) and leave it alone until we have time to design a nice organizer. That could be a couple of years, so once the doors are one we'll consider this project completed for now. I can't wait!
