Well it is official. We made a month with all family members intact. At times it has felt a lot like Raiders of the Lost Ark. You know... where Indy is carefully weighing out the sand to escape with the golden idol. Like Indy, we were often unsuccessful. With flying fecal matter as we duck and cover, tiptoeing past cribs where angels and demons lie and making leaps of faith hoping we might see the light of day once more. Yes these are the joys of child rearing and I Am a Parent!
On a more optimistic note, Evan is gaining weight, at a rate of about a pound a week, we've finished the downstairs bathroom (sans trim) and I built a bench on our deck this week.
The bathroom is AWESOME!! We tiled the shower awhile ago and grouted last week. This week we installed the door. While pricey at 700 bucks it does look great and it complements the decadence I call "Aquatic Symphony". We've installed two shower heads which can be considered over the top or thrifty depending on your point of view. Considering we can fit the whole family in this shower it's really 3 showers for the price of 2! I'll believe this if you will.
The deck bench was a 1/2 day project that added a nice element to the back yard. Logan uses it as a table, chair and launching point for airborne assaults. Really, only 1 band-aid so far! Also you can see our pot-o-carrots too.
To finish this posting, I'll add a few pictures of Evan since he is the newest addition to the family.

Nice work on the bench - and I loooove the pot o'carrots! Thanks for blogging so much. I wish I could visit to meet Evan, but for now keeping up with your adventures through the blog will have to satisfy me.
