catching up

We've had lots going on lately... don't we always?



I finally finished painting our entry way and the kids' hallway. We decided on a light grayish color but it actually looks light blueish gray on the walls. It's really pretty and we're happy with it. I was going to paint the hallway, entry, living, dining and kitchen all the same color but I think I've changed my mind. Our main living areas are all open to each other but even so I think different colors will work in different rooms and kind of define each area as a separate space rather than using one color for everything which would kind of define everything as one huge room. Make sense? So now I need to pick out another color or two for the kitchen and dining and possibly another color for 3 walls of the living room.



We had gorgeous weather Monday. I think I overdid it by cleaning off our filthy back porch, cleaning out our filthy garage AND painting Monday evening. I got a terrible migraine that night and it pretty much lasted until yesterday (Wed.) evening. Luckily my mom is awesome and she REALLY helped out Tuesday and yesterday. I decided to get a shot for migraines (no idea what the name of shot was) yesterday afternoon and it didn't even work! I was SO annoyed. I'm feeling okay now (keeping my fingers crossed that it lasts!)



J is loving school! She did not do well in the Spanish immersion class so we pulled her out a few weeks ago. She's in a regular 4 year old class now, two days a week. We call it "school" or "preschool" but it's technically Mother's Day Out. I'm hoping we can get C in a class this fall. I think C would actually do great in the Spanish immersion class just because of his personality but he'd also love a regular 3 year old class.



I think I've successfully switched my blog from a "no-reply" blogger to a "reply" blogger. Could one of you kind readers let me know for sure? Thanks! :)
