Been a while since my last post. And boy, do I have some updates!
First off, LETS GO YANKEES! Yes, that was the chant around my house throughout September-November. Heck, I even got Abby chanting it too. And it worked! The Yankees won their 27th World Series Championship. I can’t think of a better way to spend an evening, then with my daughter on my lap cheering on the Yankees during playoff baseball.
I’ve been busy in the garage since my last post. I built a set of cupboards under my desk in the garage to store my tools in. I also built a storage unit above the garage door as well. Good place to store our folding chairs and other items which aren’t needed too often. Both turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. I still have a bit of work to do: mounting whiteboard, some more wall brackets for larger hand tools etc. Come the spring, I will finally be ready to paint the garage and hopefully cover the floor with some sort of coating as well. Need to be a nice home to keep my bug in 😉
Christmas is on the way, and I have one excited little kid. She has really embraced the whole ‘ho ho’ thing. Christmas decorations, lights etc really light her up. Cutest thing you have ever seen. The house is lit pretty well this year. Slight increase from the last couple years. Each year we spend a bit more on lights, so I figure in 5 years or less, I should rival Clark Griswold 😉
If you have been following my facebook status, you probably already know that i’ve put my Subaru up for sale. I know I haven’t had it too long (only a year). It’s a great little car, but I’ve decided I’m more of a hatch man…. oh, and since Shannons lease comes up next year, and the fact she is pregnant with our second child, we need something slightly bigger then the roo. Putting a rear facing seat in the Subaru won’t likely happen unless Shannon stays home all the time.
Yes, you read that right. We have a baby on the way!!! I couldn’t be more excited. The due date is June 21st, so I expect the baby to come a bit late. Likely June 27th (the day of June Jitterbug). Before you ask, no, we won’t be finding out the sex. Shannon is starting to get a nice baby bump. Hopefully going into the second trimester she will start feeling like herself again.
