or not...

remember this guy...

well, keeping with the true nature of renovations...

he's still with us!

 turns out this guy, is backordered!

so while other people figure out how to get it to us

{worst case scenario is december 5, not that bad}

we keep chipping away at the new floors.

baby room done!

{notice that new window?! but ignore that old fan!}

husband hard at work finishing Gray's big boy room!

{guess our clothes need to find a new home!}

and finally the transition between the kitchen and the living room.

{now the "easy" part of the living room can begin!}

all in all,

can't complain, because we did get this beauty in...

{wait for it....}

tah-dah!!

so worth it!!

{don't worry, we're changing the handles and staining the wood!}

you ask...

we deliver...literally!

{well one of us does anyways}

when are we going to have another, you ask?

well, april 2012 as a matter of fact!

meet our baby no2

we don't know what we're having yet...

{oh yes, we're finding out!!}

but maybe you do?!

there's two more months until we know ~
so let's take an official poll and see who's right!

will it be a boy or girl?

one down...

one decision that is -

paint colours!!

clearly, it only takes one trip to Restoration Hardware

to fall for their colours!

it's almost impossible to leave the store without paint samples,

case in point - picked up a paint deck:

{husband drew on them with pen - for shame!!! those are sacred to a designer!}

then husband picked up some samples, 

and I painted the swatches

{Gray's room first!}

the ones that made the cut?

* 1 - buttermilk     2 - ash     3 - graphite *

Gray picked number two for his room

{no really, he did!!},

number 1 is going in the hallway because it is dark

and needs some light,

and number three is going on all the doors!!

yep, grey doors!

I'm very excited to see how those turn out! 

I would paint the whole house in that colour -

but I love light and airy spaces too,

so I'm containing myself and limiting it to the doors

{for now...hehehe...shhh don't tell husband}.
