Saturday Fun

Well, we've made it to Saturday and I think we just may come down to Hastings for Courtnie's shower. We got Abby to eat most of a stick of string cheese last night and this morning she had a few bites of melon. That's a pretty big improvement for her. Before we decide for sure we'll have to see how she does at the Angel Food distribution this afternoon. We'll have to head out soon to get things ready and help Steve unload the truck. I'm sure he'll be tired after his early morning drive down to Gaylord to pick up the food.

Abby and I picked up more paint cards yesterday. I am trying hard to figure out what color to paint her room and what color to paint the extra bedroom, which will probably someday be for a little brother or sister. Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful. I've been trying to to find a perfect quilt for a little girl's room too, but finding something cute, but that will grow with her is quite a challenge. Plus a lot of the "kids" bedding only comes in twin or full size and we have a queen size bed for Abby to use when she gives up on the crib. I didn't see the point in replacing a beautiful queen with a full just because that is what most kids use. Aah.... decisions, decisions.

Abby will be happy with most any shade of pastel, she is so adorable.
I bet it will change a few times.
I love the look inside your new home. It looks like possibilities!!!!Great Grandma

Jen, do you have an extra bed for the spare room yet? You could always use the queen bed in there for the time being and then purchase a smaller bed for Abby. I'm partial to pink...but that's me! I have a pink room in my house just because!! :) Congrats on the new house, it looks very beautiful!
