January in a nut shell

So January was full of home improvement projects and getting the house and baby's room ready. 

We have been here since May and I still have a TON of things in boxes. This month I got a chance to actually hang up some of my pictures! EEK! We also had a number of things that were just cluttering our house, and in order to get ready for this little princess, they needed to be sold. We painted the baby room, but I can't seem to get the color to come out in a picture so we will hold off on that photo for now. And many other randoms... 

So rather than bore you with my ULTRA exciting life, I think I will just do a photo sesh and explain. 

Capiche? 

 So I bought this guy a new hunting rifle for Chrimmas, so he was itching to take it out and put a few rounds through it. One Saturday morning, we went up to the mountains (around Marys Peak) so he could have some fun with it. I had fun hiking with the girls, but the girls were a little less than enthused on the ruckus their dad was causing.

Here is a photo of the picture wall that I finally got to hang up! I love it and can't wait to add more pictures to it.

 

 Went to our works fancy schmancy "Winter Gala". Really, it is kind of lame, but the food was Delish!!

 And again at the gala...hellooooooo boobs

 Around Mid January we made a trek to the Oregon Coast (Newport) to just get out of town. We explored the beach, ate some delish fish and chips and bought some fresh sea food. Never mind the fact that I look bald here...the day was pleasant

Spent many hours at Goodwill, trying to be bargain hunters and find organization tools to get this house in order before baby comes...One of these trips..I found these little babies....why anyone would want to give up THE WHOLE COLLECTION OF SPICE GIRL DOLLS is beyond me. Clearly it was a mistake.... They must be collectors items by now...

Made these little closet dividers for our girls closet...I have them from 0-3 months -18-24 months. The paint pen that I was using was not cooperating, so they didn't turn out EXACTLY as planned, but for being in a closet...they will do! 

 

And made these little babies for a food day at work. Mountain Dew Cupcakes! Oh my gosh...they were heavenly! Pretty easy too, and for a girl that doesn't love soda pop...they were still delish. 

We finished the month of January with Tim's birthday, I will do a whole other post to follow, because that was an event! 

Love you all
