Well, we (Meghann) made it through the wedding. She was pooped afterwards, but it was uneventful in the child-labor department. It was very lovely and we had a great time. Congratulations Andrea and Ian, we love you. Select wedding photos “here”:http://www.labrodeurs.org/photos/2005-06/wedding/ (lots of matron of honor photos )

We spent yesterday putting some finishing touches on the nursery and the guest room, hanging puctures and other things. It’s starting to look like a real home in here. It’s been a long time in coming. We’ve been living here nearly three years now, and it’s been a semi-disaster-construction zone the whole time. It’s a welcome change. Too bad there’s still some work left to be done…. but not today.

I had my first Father’s Day today, even though our baby boy is not quite out yet. I got a bunch of cards. Very thoughtful of folks. He is getting closer though. Meghann says he has dropped for sure. He’s lower and pressing down low in her belly. She says it’s somewhat uncomfortable, the first time in here easy-breezy pregnancy. That kid will be here anytime now. We only hope he waits at least a week so Meghann can go to her best friend’s wedding. She’s going to be a sight as the Matron of Honor!

Happy Father’s Day!

More progress today, but not as much as we would have liked. We spent a whole bunch of $$ at Lowe’s on closet gear. We decked out the closet with shelves, drawers and bars. Money well spent, we hope. You can see photos by clicking “here”:http://www.labrodeurs.org/photos/2005-06/closet/

We also put together the cradle that Grampa C. built back in 1972 for Dave Cecka and grand kids to follow. There sure are alot of names burned into it now, but there’s plenty of room for more. We can’t wait to add our little baby’s name to the heirloom. Again, you can see photos of the cradle and Meghann by clicking “here”:http://www.labrodeurs.org/photos/2005-06/nursery/

Well, it finally happened. The instant the carpet was laid, we descended on the bedroom like vultures and moved into our new territory. We’re ecstatic! It looks sooooo nice. Of course we posted photos. Click “here”:http://www.labrodeurs.org/photos/2005-06/move_in_day/ to see them.

After what seemed like forever tiling the shower, we’re finally making progress on the rest of the house projects. We created a countertop for our master bathroom, out of plywood and tile. It turned out pretty nice. We even had enough tile! Now we’re only short one piece in the shower. Tim will go next week sometime to get the replacement tile.

Meghann painted the nursery ‘Oh Boy’ blue (What a trooper she is). It turned out very nice as well. It’s almost ‘neon’ in color so it should be very stimulating for our new child. This kid is gonna hate blue and Pooh after a while. :p
