The "GOOD"....
I've had a week off of work due to the swine flu outbreak and it was great to have some R&R. Andie and I spent a day at the lake which was very relaxing and fun! I'm pregnant and wearing a bathing suit...never thought I'd see the day! We also got some work done on the bookshelves in the nursery and they are completely installed- we're getting really excited that the nursery is coming along!

Working on my tan at the lake!
Here's the finished product of the bookshelves- we're thrilled with all the added storage they'll provide!

The "BAD"....
The bad was that getting those shelves put in was a LOT of work- priming, painting, painting again for a second coat, then installing into the room. I overdid myself and my back and feet hurt for a couple days afterward :(
****
We had to bring them in through the window cause they wouldn't fit through the hallway! Boy am I glad my husband is strong!
Andie and Jordan working on last minute details...such a nice gift from uncle Jordan and his friend to build and install!
The ceilings are 10 feet tall so it took three guys to lift the top shelf into place- it was difficult but they got it in good and snug.
Here's the shelves prior to being primed and painted- I'm not volunteering for that job again anytime soon!****
The "UGLY"....
The "UGLY"....
Here's my skinny ankles and my swollen, fat, UGLY ankles! Doesn't get any uglier than that!

OMG- where do I start?? Lol. The shelves look great! I am impressed with Jordan doing all of that! You look so incredibly cute in your suit- just adorable. I still really like your hair that length. Your ankles, however, are horrific. HA. But you know what to do...
ReplyDeleteHoooweeee, those are some wacked out ankles! Brings back oh-so-fond memories....
ReplyDeleteThose shelves are AWESOME, with a capital "A"! It amazes me when people are talented enough to make stuff like that with their hands. I wish we had some really nice built in's too. I can't believe little Jordan made those.
You sure do look good though! Keep those tootsies up!
Jordan helped his friend do it...his friend's dad owns a cabinetry business so the friend did most of the main work and Jordan helped finish out and install. Yeah, the ankles are insane aren't they!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Those shelves are really cool. That's awesome that you have such a talented husband and strong friends. The ankles look painful. I have almost the same picture of mine looking like that right next to Kelly's ankle. ouch!
