Six Months Old



My baby is now six months old (sniffle sniffle). What a sweet boy!!! He weighed 17 lbs 7 oz at his checkup-what a little chunk! He is such a sweet happy baby, and a big thumb sucker too. Happy six months baby!

Well, if you remember, about a year and a half ago we finished the boys' room. It looked so cute! I especially loved the vinyl tree that we purchased from etsy.

Well, the twins figured out how to peel off the vinyl. I was very sad and upset. It was ripped down little by little until only the very top leaves were left.

I felt that they ruined the cutest element of their room.

I had an idea that I would hire someone to paint a tree similar to the one from before on their wall. I was willing to pay someone, but I wanted the tree to look a certain way and I didn't want to have to pay for something that I didn't really like etc.

So after putting it off for a long time, Darin kind of gave me a nudge to just try to paint it by myself, we could always just paint over it if it looked bad, right? We would probably end up saving a lot of money, right?

Well I did it.

I am pleased. I didn't trust myself to add any animals, they can come later if I feel the need to add them.
