passing the time

From April 11th until May 8th, Josh had the opportunity to go to Pasadena California to head a project that dealt with the remodeling of some stores. Although it was a great experience, this left me, home alone, 5 months pregnant and bored. So to pass the time I was experiencing the beginning of my "nesting" phase which caused me to get SO MUCH DONE in Harper's room along with random tasks throughout the house!

Things I completed while he was gone:
  • I decided that it would be a fantastic idea to rip up the carpet in Harper's room so it would be easier to paint the trim
  • Painted the trim with the help of my lovely mom!
  • Worked in the backyard, trimmed trees, cleaned out all the bricks lining our flower beds, picked weeds, and mowed
  • Worked in the front yard....I tore up my front flower bed & chopped down some bushes that I apparently hated that day? This left random sticks sticking up out of the flower bed that I claimed looked "artsy," thankfully they are growing back normal now
My beautiful Hydrangea my mom got for me. This plant makes me smile =)
Freshly planted flowers alongside the sticks that I chopped off the tops!

Josh approving of the flower bed... mostly because he did not have to help!!
