Lots of catching up to do…

Us the day he went back. It’s the best picture we took the whole time he was home. We really need to get better about that.

A couple of months ago I came up with an idea for a nightstand with steps in it for Ki to use because she’s scared to jump on the bed. I told Nicholas about my idea and he thought it was crazy but figured why not! lol We had fun building it because we didn’t have any step by step plans and had to figure it out as we went along. That’s how I build most of my projects but it made him twitch a little bit. Poor guy.

Ki and I are still having a battle of will on using the steps. She doesn’t want to and I make her anyway. She would rather me still pick her up and put her on the bed, not doing that anymore. I will win.

When I got rid of the old night stands I just piled everything in the corner so that mess is cleaned up now.

So yep, that was the second week of R&R. Time in the garage and playing Wii, it was almost too exciting. Yay R&R! Tomorrow I’ll post some videos from my volleyball game to prove that I really do play and I’m not just telling people that as a joke. Oh and pictures of the bed that I built for the boy’s room and didn’t post because I wanted it to be a surprise. And he was really surprised because he walked back out as we were unloading the car and said “Um, did you build that bed because I was really confused when I walked into my room”. And just to be clear I don’t make him sleep in there that’s just where all his clothes and Army crap lives so he can get dressed in there and I can keep sleeping in peace. We learned a lot time ago what keeps our marriage happy. :)
