Well we had a busy weekend. First I moved my office furniture on Saturday while Kelly and the Baby were hard at work selling real estate. Then on Sunday we decided to get a load of bark mulch and finally finish the flower beds. I had to pull quite a few weeds and use the weed torch to burn some others. It all was going fine until the propane ran out and I had to resume pulling weeds the old fashioned way. Meanwhile Kelly and baby decided to detail the Yukon so it was all clean and ready for our new arrival. For those keeping score we have only about 3 weeks left if we are on time. Kelly also packed the baby's bag so we are getting close.
Here is a pic of the truck all loaded up with one of my many loads. This was the last load so I saved all the light stuff for last.
This is my new office. Very organized I know. I still need to move my desk and computer but for now I am working on a card table until I can get things unpacked.
Here are the flower beds we mulched and weeded this weekend. Plants are starting to bloom but the grasses have not started to bloom yet. I hope they do soon or else the may get replaced. We pruned them back as recomended but I am not sure they made the winter.
Brace yourself, this is me hard at work. This is a rare sight so savor it and add to your mental rolodex. It does happen ocassionally.
Kelly spent the day detailing the Yukon. She steam cleaned it, she shampooed the carpets, she antibacterial wiped everything down, and even cleaned all the cupholders. No dirt or bacteria survived!!! In fact she worked so hard that our shampooer bit the dust. It has served us well for 10 years, but it finally gave out. Now she wants a new one.
Finished product. It's starting to look good. We only need about 10 more yards of mulch to finish this side of the house. Also have to get some more gravel and kill some more weeds.
By the end of the day Kelly and Baby decided to relax in her mother's day gift.
Thanks for checking in on us. Hope all the mother's had a nice mother's day. I know this one did. The nesting phase has offically kicked into high gear.

You guys have been busy! The yard work looks great! I think I want some mulch! And detailing the car, that's a dreaded task when you have a 7yr old! Hope Kelly likes her chair, I know I love mine!
If I order some mulch will you come place it for me? You do good work, both of you.
The nesting phase is the BEST! You'll never be more productive!
Hope you're feeling well Kelly! Treasure these last few moments with your bub on the inside. I promise you, you will miss it. It's a very special time that just you can share with the wee one, so take the time to stop and sit quietly, just the two of you!
