On the Go!

Makenna is offically walking! Hooray! She took her first major steps of May 26th- She is SO proud of herself too. And of course we are super proud of her! Check it out... (dont mind the painting clothes!)






Also, the playroom is coming along nicely! We have made a few changes along the way. The Lime Green that I chose (a few posts back) ended up being a little too bright. I swear it didnt look "lime green" in the sample but it sure was lime green on the wall! We ended re-painting it with Olympic Paint's Asparagus check it out...




Lime Green (the before color for the stairs/ upstairs hallway)









Asparagus (the current color of the stairs/ upstairs hallway)



Just a shade darker but it makes a world of difference.


Also we are not going with the bright blue are carpet for the playroom. We decided it would be too much in that room so we are going to match the carpet thats on the stairs. It will look much better IMO. The carpet should be install this weekend though- YAY!


A big BOO though- I hesitated on ordering the bean bag chairs from Walmart and they are ALL out of stock! Grrr. I am really hoping they restock them. I actually stalk the Walmart site one to many times a day to see if they are available.


Anyway- Im so excited to have it all done. We have almost all the trim up, the railing and most of the spindles up...I even put up the wall decal tree. :o) Im waiting till it is finished for the big reveal though!


In other news, I am really excited- this weekend we are doing a local 3 mile walk for Breast Cancer called Paint the Porch Pink with a few friends. Its a cause thats really near and dear to me since a few wonderful women in my family have been survivors of breast cancer. And my wonderful Nana passed away from it when I was 3. Im excited to help support these - and the other amazing women out there who have battled with it!


Hope everyone has a great weekend!
