We have grass!

This weekend was very productive...actually the last few weekends have been very productive, I'm not sure where we get all the energy from.  Saturday morning Peter and his dad picked up sod and now we have grass in our front yard.  It looks amazing!  Oh so much better than what it looked like before and all the neighbors are well pleased.  Now apparently we need to buy a lawn mower for our tiny grass...but we intend on having grass in the backyard at some point so it's all good.  Peter also played with another set of sprinklers which are on his to do list for next weekend.  There are two lines that are capped.  One we will uncap and use with a drip system for our veggies that we'll plant in the front yard.

I don't know why this picture turned the background pink...but here are Peter and his dad laying sod.

 Connor loved rolling in the grass...

...and in the dirt.

Isn't it pretty?

Then we watered it...

...and the boy too.

Also on Saturday we bought several veggie plants...Home Depot is having their spring Black Friday sale until the 10th, so the plants that are normally $3.98 each were 5 for $10, so of course I bought 10 of them.  They also have Behr paint for $5 off a 1 gallon can, well I need like 6 cans so I'm meeting my mom at Home Depot tomorrow after work with some fabric samples and hopefully we can pick some great colors for Connor's room and the nursery.  We've also changed our minds on what the nursery will be...yes it's still Winnie the Pooh, but there will be a cute Pooh border that we're doing.  The bottom portion of the room will be a light green and the top and ceiling will be a light blue color.  I'm also adding in some cute butterfly sticker decals too.  The back of the shelving unit will be yellow and the shelves will be white with baskets to hold baby clothing.  It's going to be really cute.  Connor's room will be yellow with two colors of green as mountains.  Then we'll put up these cute safari decals.  I'm excited to see some progress with the rooms.  I also might be nesting a little bit. :) 

Next week's project-Insert drip system and garden in this area.

The upstairs bathroom is a work in progress again.  Frank came by this weekend and worked on the tile for the shower and the floor and installed the vanity.  Now we can call our granite people and have them install the counter top this week hopefully.  Frank said he'll be by a couple times this week to work on the tiles.  He'll be gone for a business trip this upcoming weekend, so he's trying to get things done with the bathroom so he can work on the rooms.

 Here's the shower tile and the nook for soap/shampoo that Frank created for us.

 And the bathroom...yes it's small, but it is going to be oh so cool when it's all done. 

 I can hardly wait!
