Well, Todd and I are back in Kansas and it has been busy! Family visits, a doctor appointment, a vet appointment, many loads of laundry, and some Inna shopping! I've even managed to get a few hours of sleep but I haven't quite caught up yet.
We arrived and my niece, Jade, picked us up from the airport. What a HUGE blessing she is...I came home to a clean house, clean sheets, and clean towels! She also moved all the furniture out of Inna's room that I have been storing for a friend, which I was dreading!! AND, she put together our white, twin bed, moved in our twin mattress from the "boy room", and printed a beautiful picture of our Inna and framed it in her room!!! I love you Jade!!! Thank you so much! Plus, she had two dresses and some pink jellies in her closet waiting for her:)
Then we did some Inna shopping and purchased some things for her room. Thanks to my mom, sister, and Jade, the room is nearly complete! We completed some touch-up painting, cleaned out her jam-packed closet, and Todd fixed her chair-rail. I used my "scrapbooking skills" to complete her name frames to match her bedding too, which was fun:)
Once Jade left, my good friend Deb came by with a carload of goodies for my Inna...and me! Two beautiful carseats, two extendable baby gates, some room decorations, and a little table for her! Yeah!! So, now I just need some furniture.
My mom and dad are came on Saturday and I couldn't wait to give them both HUGE hugs when I saw them! Sunday was a fun day at church where we were greeted by all our praying friends!! So many hugs and hugs and more hugs! Such a needed welcome home party:) Then, we traveled to St. Joseph to see Todd's parents for some yummy Mexican food!
This is a very busy week but today I just layed around...literally. I hung out on the couch with my dogs while my wonderful husband headed off to work. I enjoyed every bit of being lazy. It's only 7:22pm and my PJs are on and I'm heading to bed. I'm still not feeling well and I think it mostly stems from not sleeping so I'm off to catch up!
Inna is just waking up from a nap and getting ready for her snack of cookies and sour milk. I bet she is loving her sweet treats...but momma and daddy are going to bring lots of bananas for her!!
I hope to post pictures of her half completed room soon!
Alicia- I am just so happy for you, Todd, and little Inna! Are you planning on having a baby shower or anything? I would love to get something for you, and hopefully come by after she's home and you all feel a little settled.
ReplyDeleteAlicia - Michael was so thrilled that you stopped by class yesterday. It was the first thing he said when he got home. He teared up over his happiness/sadness. We'll be praying for you as you return to get your Inna and I hope you'll continue this blog as we won't get the regular updates (unless you decide to teach 5th grade... hint hint).
ReplyDeleteGod bless you and Todd.
