Tuesday and Wednesday = clean floors and laundry

I think the title says it all. Pictures of my carpets and piles of laundry would be pretty boring so there won't be any pictures accompanying this post. :)

Monday = clean bathrooms

I started a new cleaning schedule today and today was bathroom day. I haven't REALLY cleaned the bathrooms in a LONG time so it ended up taking me 6 hours (with some breaks in between) but the bathrooms are now the cleanest they've been probably since we've lived here.

Camping

Well, we headed up to Baker Lake (kind of by Sun Valley) this weekend with Aaron's parents for a weekend of camping. The days were a lot of fun filled with biking and hiking and smores by the fire but the nights were a different story. Eva did not sleep well which means that I did not sleep well. I think I got about 1.5 hours of sleep the first night, the second night went better and I got probably a good 7 hours of sleep, and then the third night was turning out to be like the first night so we left and headed home at 3:00am. We got home a little before 6:00am and then slept until about 10:00am.

Eva's new room

Here is the progress so far. I still have to finish the walls and then paint some musical stuff on them but I'm getting there....slowly but surely. Once I'm done with this we can move Eva in and then start repainting her old room for baby Eli.

Before....


The process....



And getting a little closer to the end product....

Oregon coast 2009

Every other year we head down to the Oregon coast with all my family (parents, sisters, and their families). They do it every year but we only make it every other year as the other year is spent with Aaron's extended family. We had a blast this year going to the aquarium, hanging out on the beach and in the hot tub, eating at Mo's, and just having a great time with family. Eva had lots of fun playing with her cousins and she got to see her Gigi and Papa Wally (my grandparents) as well as great aunt Debbie and Gail and great uncle Chris and my cousin summer and her little girl McKenna. On our way up we stopped in Newberg to visit the McConaughey's and on our way home we stopped in Newberg to visit our friend Jamie. Jamie and her husband Luke have chickens and goats and Eva got to pet the goats which she thought was a lot of fun. Check out our shutterfly page for all the pictures.

Give me names!

I am so tired of searching through thousands of baby boy names online so I am giving you all the task of commenting with boy names for us to consider for this little guy. C'mon, help me out.
