the fair in Lynden... it's all about the animals for J... the food for me! we were so close to trying a deep fried candy bar! but $5... it couldn't be done! (which reminds me... i was going to look up a recipe)

checking out the calves


hi pigs



J fairly consistently answers that he want a goat for a pet over a dog


and now for the around the house updates:
i decided one day after watching a bunch of HGTV's "wasted spaces" that i was going to just check and see what might be able to be done with our deep (and very messy) bathroom closet... well that ended with lots of hammering and dry wall dust and J saying "mama made mess!" alot :)

here is the result though: beautifully organized! still tons of storage!


before moving to show you the other side... J decided it was time for and impromptu photo shoot :)












back to the unveiling:
ta da! our one messy closet turned into 2 functional and tidy storage spaces!


AND i used the wood from the old shelving to build J this little, excuse me, "big boy" bed.


don't knock the nesting! i get so much done when i am pregnant! :)
