An important month

Today is July 1st. This is the crucial month - if we can get through July, I'll be over 30 weeks along, which is great. I know that every single day that these babies stay inside is an accomplishment, but when I have weeks and weeks to go, getting through each long day is tough. I'm not bored yet, thankfully! I'm working on the thank-you notes from my shower, I have a few books to read... plus Larry brought home some lawn chairs yesterday so that I can lay out in the backyard and get some sun if I want :)

My sister Katie came over on Sunday and helped Larry paint the babies' room - I was so grateful! I think he was not very excited at the prospect of having to do it all by himself. Not only were they able to get all the painting done in one day, but they kept each other company, which was really nice. I kept hearing them laughing from downstairs in the tv room. Now all we need to do is a fresh coat of paint on the trim, and get that new rug installed (just waiting for Home Depot to call and let me know that it's in). We have all the furniture and the bedding, so everything is falling into place. Oh, and we're still waiting for our glider to come in as well.

Here are Larry and Katie painting:
