Okay world, I have officially been a slacker!! I haven't had any time to post anything for like a year! I finally made time. So things are going great in the Spaulding house, we are very slowly putting things together. This week we made the downstairs bathroom more kid friendly. We added a ton of fish! it is soo cute. there are fish everywhere. The kids haven't seen it yet but i think they will be very excited. I'm not a huge fan of fish but with two kids sharing a bathroom its hard to find something that isn't too girly or too boyish! I am very pleased with how it turned out. We just have to add a few small things and it will be off to the next bathroom to make it less kid friendly and more mom and dad friendly! Joe has some really good ideas for what we want but we are still undecided. We will see how it goes1 One project at a time! I think I am going to focus on Melyssa's room next. It needs the most work, I'ts a nice room it just needs to scream girl because Missy will have nothing less! She is so cute, she already knows how she wants it decorated, I think she changed her mind about 20 times but we have a winner!! Polka dots!! I'm excited and worried, the dots will be great but we already have crazy colored stripes and some bright curtains with daisies its going to look outrageously girly when we are finished! I hope she likes it. Austins room on the other hand is still just blue and plane. He doesn't know if he wants camo, or blue pirates, or ocean sharks. He will have to make up his mind soon so we can get started on his room but for now we have plenty to keep us busy! This thing with having my own house and doing whatever I want with it is great!! I am loving life. Okay enough about the house, the kids are getting big! Every time I see them its like they change so much so fast I have to re learn what they like! It keeps me o my toes though. I am looking forward to summer so we will have more time with them!! They are coming early this week and I am already making plans for what to do over the weekend. I know we will make mother's day cards and i think Joe planned a swimming trip on Saturday so we have enough to keep us busy if we put house work in there sometime! Wow there is so much to do and see and talk about but not enough time in the day! All in all we are all doing well and are taking things a day at a time! I love my life!!
