Painting 101

Thought I'd give a little update for what we've been up to....no, no baby yet (sorry for the lapse in posts). Ryan and I spent several hours Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday painting the baby's room. The room is not that big, but there is a lot of trim and we are doing it in two different colors with molding and stencils/etc (not your average paint job). Let's just say we remembered quickly why we usually have my dad do all the painting. Painting is no fun at all, plus we are no good at it. My father should really teach a class on painting, because he uses no tape or extra tools to do the trim (and we had to use both), you just give him a paint brush and he's done in a few hours. Well at least I can tell my little girl I was slaving away on her room while I was very pregnant....hopefully she'll appreciate it that much more:-) We still have a lot of finishing touches to make the room complete, so I'll post pictures once that is all done. But we are making progress and I'm fulfilling the nesting desire that comes with pregnancy!

That makes two of us! Sounds like it's going to be adorable and very feminine.
