Kitchen Renovation – Part II

June 26, 2008 TL

Here’s part II of the project. Drywall mudding through installation of new windows, a new patio door, painting the walls and installation of the light fixtures, kitchen cabinet bodies, and countertops. At least we finally have a workable kitchen, just no cabinet doors and drawers…although we can easily find what we’re looking for!

No sleep for me!

June 20, 2008 ML

Henry is a night owl! He refuses to sleep and so Tommy and I take turns holding him and walking around the living room. Here are some pics of Tommy’s turn with our little sweetie.

Henry and Daddy — I'm not going to sleep!

Mom’s visit

June 19, 2008 ML

Mom came down to Tucson for a couple days and shot these pics while she was down here. This is the most smiley that Henry has been. I would touch his chest and say his name and he would start smiling. It was really cute.
