More Drywalling....

Joe rented a drywall lift on Saturday. The bedroom ceiling is done (woohoo!) and the livingroom is almost done. We were up until 12:30 getting all the big pieces up. There is just a six foot by 29 in piece we need to get up. We don't a lift for that. The other sheets were up to 12 feet! It was a long, exhausting evening.

We were hoping to be done before Dan & Becca came this weekend, but no can do. I will spend tonight putting the livingroom furniture back in place and sweeping & dusting. And laundry. Since I did very little over the weekend.

Butterfly Eggs!

Robert is just so doggone cute! Last night when I picked him up he was all excited!
"Mommy! Look, I found butterfly eggs!" he told me, holding out his little hand to display what looked like little pebbles. "I digged them up on the play ground."
He could wait to show his sisters. I was afraid Bridget would try to ruin it for him, by telling him that butterflies do not lay eggs, but she didn't. Katie thought he was cool for possessing actual butterfly eggs. They were trying to figure out where to store the eggs. I convinced them it might be best to lay them in our yard so they could be with their butterfly friends when they hatch.
