Time goes by…
October 21, 2008
We’re really sorry for not posting any updates in a while. It’s amazing how fast the time is going by these days.
We’ve been spending quite a bit of time painting in the Nursery and it is starting to look really great! We took on a project that is a little larger than we expected, but we are having fun spending time together getting the room ready for our little girl.
I don’t think either of us would ever make it as a professional painter. You see…we decided to paint stripes on one wall. A 4″ tan stripe, then a 1″ white stripe, then a 10″ pink stripe…and so on and so on. Originally, we thought the pink stripes would be 8 inches wide, so we laid down a coat of white paint in the areas (not the whole wall) of where we thought the 1″ white stripes would fall. Of course, we then decided to make the pink stripes 10 inches wide, so all of our white paint was way off. Yikes…and we’re going to be raising a child???
Anyway, we had all the stripes painted and it looked AMAZING until we pulled all the 1″ painters tape off to expose our white lines. Well, as you would guess, the tan and pink paint leaked through some of the tape so our lines are not quite perfect. As you can see in the picture, Kyla’s been spending a lot of hours touching up the white lines with her little paint brush to get the lines straight and look good again.
We’ve since painted one of the other walls all pink and the opposite wall a deep chocolate brown. Our plan going forward is to paint some hot pink, brown and white circles on the striped wall. I know, I know…it probably sounds confusing but it’s going to look really cool when we are done. I’ll try to post some pictures of our progress.
Everything else is going pretty well. I’ve been spending a lot of time on my photography and I’ve also picked up a couple of extra web development jobs that has been keeping me busy too. I’ll let Kyla fill you in on how she’s doing in the next blog.
I hope you are all doing well.
Take care and God Bless!
