Stay-cation 2010

This year, instead of going to Gulf Shores, we opted (for several reasons--me being largely pregnant and the Gulf oil spill, to name a few) to have a "stay-cation" instead. Corey's parents came to Indy and we worked on the house all week. We painted the entire living and dining room, up the stairs, and the nursery. We also took down old curtains, hung a chandelier, painted the fireplace, and got out all of the baby clothes (seeing the teeny tiny clothes made me really excited for this new little one to be here soon!) I use the word "we" loosely because I wasn't involved in much of the work this week. I did some painting and lots of supervising. Corey and his Dad hung the chandelier for me (and only ALMOST caused a fire.) My in-laws and husband really served me this week by letting my primary responsibility be to entertain the children while they worked. I'm so thankful for all three of them! We tried to mix some fun into the week as well so we visited the zoo, a local pool, some local restaurants and, of course, we shopped. :)
