It's a boy!

Steven and I are so excited we are having a boy! The ultrasound tech wasn't sure she would be able to tell this soon (I am only a little over 12 weeks) but she said it is pretty obvious we are having a boy! Here are some pics.

Of course you cannot tell from the picture but the baby was jumping and waving like crazy. I thought it was so funny because I can't feel a thing yet!

Here is the picture showing us that we are having a boy.

We're Having a Baby!

Steven and I are super excited! I am now about 8 1/2 weeks pregnant. We were able to see our little baby and hear the little heartbeat at my first prenatal visit. It was so awesome. Here is a picture.

Finally! Finished kitchen pictures!

Steven and I have FINALLY finished our kitchen! Actually, it's been 90.9% finished for awhile...we just put the finishing touches on. So, here are the long awaited pictures!


The dining area.

The island. I am so proud of how it turned out. I never stained anything before. It was super easy!

The sink work area.

The stove, microwave and dishwasher.

I love it!

The Fridge.

The refrigerator came today!

More Kitchen Pics!

Here are some new pictures Steven took this morning.

Here you can see the new dishwasher and microwave. The missing cabinet doors need to be re-sized so it will be awhile before we get those.

Here is a close-up of the island.

New Floor

This Saturday we put the new flooring in. I love it soooooo much. Here are a few more updates.

The new sink and faucet. Look, the countertops are in!

The old bookcase is gone and we have a nice little half-wall.

The island is installed. The top was put in yesterday... I don't have a picture for it yet. Steven and I did all the painting. Since these pictures were taken at night you can't really see how cheery and light the colors are. I will post more pictures soon!

Kitchen Chaos

The kitchen is coming along slowly but surely.

This is the new pantry. We kept the old doors because they are still perfectly functional. We are debating whether or not we should paint them.

Here is the pantry with the doors open. The shelves are much deeper. I love it!

The peninsula is completely gone now! I can really picture myself cooking up a storm in my new open kitchen!
