Will’s first birthday is coming up next Saturday. I know, it is hard to believe that he is going to be one already! Time sure flies fast. With everything that is going on with the basement, it has been a zoo at my house. The thing Bill and I are struggling with (besides whether the basement is going to get done in time) is what do we get Will for his birthday. Madison thinks we should get him this Lagoon Pool that I posted a picture of. I think he is a tad too young even though it’s on sale (though I am sure she wouldn’t mind having it). Most of the big stuff we already own, so we are seriously at a loss on what to get him. I don’t want to spend an arm and a leg, so please let me know any ideas you guys may have! We already own a swing set, an easel, a basketball hoop, a house, a sandbox, toyboxes, at least 100 books, riding toys, and blocks. I bought some sand toys for Madison to give him, but that is it. Can you see why this is an issue? I only have a week to figure something out! Help!

Will’s First Birthday
Thursday, May 29th, 2008The Basement Remodel: 2 days left
Thursday, May 29th, 2008



Everything is coming together quite nicely. I think they are finally done mudding the walls. After I took these pictures yesterday, they started the floor. One of the guys is outside right now painting all the doors too. I’m not sure if they will really be done tomorrow or not (which makes me a tad nervous).
Summer Allergies
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008Ick. This year they started early, and I am miserable. Between the throbbing head, runny nose, and sore throat, I think I am going to go insane. What makes it worse is the construction going on in my basement. I don’t ever remember having my allergies kick in this early though. I am hoping to run to the grocery store later today (like when Bill gets home) and see what I can find. I know Clariton works pretty good. Any suggestions on what I should try?
Getting Dressed All By Myself
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008
As you can see, Madison got herself dressed this morning. Now, I had picked her out some matching clothes and put them on her bed. Why she didn’t put them on, I’ll never know. However, she must have her daddy’s fashion sense if she thinks yellow and purple match. LOL
