Bean room photos...



Here's a photo of our latest finished projects--The bean room and the Elvis Bath. The Elvi bath is still set to get some new soap and towel racks, and a new mirror and lighting scheme around the sink. But, the big work- the floor, toilet and sink are finished. Hopefully there won't be too much time before more work gets done around the house. Although, taking care of the new baby bean is pretty all consuming right now. I'm hoping things will calm down a little more with time!

The baby bean has arrived


Well, we finally did it. The new baby Bean (Raymond, after my grandpa who died last March) arrived April 1 at 7 a.m. after only 25 hours of labor. Phew. There is a reason they call it labor and not tickle party.

We've been home from the hospital for 3 days. Everyone seems to be in good health so far. Although, mommy and daddy are exhausted. I knew it would be hard, but I didn't know it'd be quite this hard.

No sleep, constant feeding, crying. Seems like the little guy is either passed out asleep or if he is awake, screaming his lungs out. I'm hoping that's just a phase. He is after all, brand new and the world must seem pretty overwhelming.

Of course, I'll post some new photos of the completed baby room soon. It looks fabulous. But first... I have to go run and change a diaper. Of course...
