Some pictures to share...

Here's some highlights from the last few weeks. The rest aren't online yet. We'll do that soon. Enjoy! Happy Birthday daddy! Andre gets his two favorite desserts: Carrot Cake (thanks Chi Thuy!) and Rice Krispy Treats (thanks Angela!)
Olivia's preschool went on another field trip to a farm close to the school. She got to pet a yak!

Olivia thought the cheese room smelled "Stinky".

Brunch on Mother's Day!

Baby boy! He's sitting pretty good by himself!

Mary was holding Nathan on her lap as she chatted on the phone. He was facing away from her and Olivia kept running up to him and touching his face. Here is Nathan at the end of the call.

New countertops, sink, and faucet!!

We love, love, LOVE our new countertops, sink, and faucet! (Ok, Mary is more excited than Andre is...) Here are some before and after pictures. Old sink: White, double, top mount, polished chrome faucet.
Demolition! (We saved about $400 by tearing off the countertops ourselves)
New sink: Stainless steel, banjo style, undermount, with Moen brushed nickel/pull down faucet. (Andre is becoming quite the handyman. He saved us around $300 by taking care of the plumbing himself.)

Old island: Dark grey laminate.

We had to chip away the laminate and hunt for the screws holding the countertop in place, but we did it!

New Island: Sensa granite in Caledonia from Lowes/Precision Countertops.
