I have been blog neglecting for 4 months now.  Gosh, I’m the world’s biggest slacker!  Two months ago we hired Vaughn’s Remodeling to come in and do a ton of finishing work on our bedroom.  If you’ve ever worked with contractors, you know that their time lapses much different from ours.  Two weeks to us is two months for a contractor.  Just keep that in mind if you ever hire one and they tell you they can start the job in a week.  Anyway, I should have taken pictures of these guys because I swear one of them was a masculine Elton John.  Anyhoo, enjoy a couple of finishing pictures.  Matt and I painted the accent wall tonight - Benjamin Moore’s “Autumn Purple”.  Some of the guys at work were harrassing Matt about his “girly” bedroom.  This purple is in no way girly.  I’ll post pictures of the wall once we have the second coat on it.  Meanwhile, enjoy these two:

In this pic, the wall on your right is the accent wall that is getting the Autumn Purple.

Pay no attention to Beth’s Christmas present there.  I had no where else to put it when it was delivered.  HA!  We got a coat of KILZ on the wall to your left.  That was the original sheetrock from the garage and had apparently seen the weather a time or two.  Not enough that it couldn’t be salvaged, however.  The ceilings are level, pay no attention to how it looks in the images.  I never can get pictures to post correctly on this thing!

The palate team called me today to schedule Beth for her 2 year evaluation.  She has to go every year to see the team in St. Louis to make sure she’s healing and progressing normally.  She had her palate repair in November of last year and she’ll be seen again this year in November for a hearing screening, speech eval and the doc will look at the palate.  We saw them in April, I believe it was, for a pin hole.  That may or may not be anything to worry about.  Only time will tell.  So far though it hasn’t had any effect on her at all - at least not that we can tell anyway.  The team coordinator tells me today “I Can’t Believe That Baby Is Going To Be 2″ - neither can we.  Didn’t we just let her turn 1 a few weeks ago?

The time flies folks.  It really does.
