It has been a long time since I’ve posted. But its been a busy long time! We got moved to WordPress, moved to a new house, got the wonky feed issues worked out, the entire house was painted, and we’re back in business!
Here is what has been going on in the meantime…
- I am in the midst of the worst case of baby fever, ever. Like epic. Baby fever to the point that YouTube videos of women having a natural labor has not brought the fever down.
- But my office upstairs is painted a shade of blue that would look gorgeous as a nursery.
- Marmot says could we please just have the guest bedroom not be neck-high in boxes before we start thinking nursery?
- Even though the guest bedroom is a disaster, the house overall has undergone a HUGE transformation. I’m working on the photo album right now, and OMG its amazing.
- The best transformation is the living room with a gorgeous Persian rug that looks like it was made for my living room- and a steal at $200 for a $1500 rug. I heart Craigslist with big BIG hearts.
- And speaking of good deals, the couches that were left in the house are awesome- we’re using them in our formal living room. I have learned that while I do have some pride, I have more cheap.
- Brewer (the new dog) uses said couches as his own personal House of Bounce, which I am still trying to catch on video.
- Max and Snooty Kitty are SO not amused by Brewer.
- Speaking of not amused, Marmot invited his entire family (four adults, one toddler) to come stay with us the last week of October.
- Yes, that would be all of us sharing the one bathroom with a shower.
- And since we lived like college students before moving here, we have to buy two more beds or the guests are sleeping on Brewer’s House of Bounce couches.
- But if we have a baby, couches used as House of Bounce is only the beginning right?
- Oh the baby fever rages on…
So what have you been upto these last few weeks??

I know where you’re coming from with the baby fever. Hubs and I haven’t been doing so well in the TTC department, but it’s the beginning of a new cycle and I’m determined to make it happen! I keep using the phrase, “put a baby in me”. That’s not weird, right? … Yeah, it kind of it, hahaha!
But I haven’t really been up to anything. We’re going to be moving soon, probably and Hubs doesn’t have a job still so I’m not sure how that’s going to work out. There’s a chance we might have to live with the in laws. I don’t WANT it to happen, but it might.
We should catch up sometime soon!
I miss chatting with you.

Welcome back girl!
You’ve been busy. You’ll be glad you weren’t around earlier this week, I had full blog mamas (preggo bloggers) posts, I’m sure that wouldn’t help your baby fever.

Oh wow, you know the baby rabies are in full force when even labor videos don’t shut it down. Good luck with that!

I hear ya! Labor Day weekend, my 1200 sq ft 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home will be hosting 10 people including Gary & me! Three are camping in the backyard. I have no idea how the bathroom is going to hold up.
