Professional Painters

My Mom and I have spent the last two days working our booties off painting. WHEW! I can finally say that the family room is now painted! :-) We've been joking saying that the "professional painters" came and painted the living room! HA! Everything turned out great and I am SO GLAD I had my Moms help, she is an awesome painter!

I showed the Hubster this picture and he said it looked like a Valspar ad! HA! I actually did LOVE this paint, it had pretty much NO odor! Which is perfect for me right now! We had all of the windows open anyways but it is VERY low odor.

I didn't realize how TALL our ceilings were until we had to tape off and cut it! HA! There was LOTS of taping off and cutting in! That was my job :-)

Here is a little peak at the finished product. I LOVE the color! It's Valspar "Hopsack" and we got it at Lowes. If you're looking for the perfect light brown then this is it!

My mom also stripped the caulking in our kitchen. It was old and had turned yellow, YUCK! And this before picture is AFTER I scrubbed and cleaned it! EW!

AFTER

WOW! Isn't that a HUGE difference?! My Mom rocks :-)

Also some exciting news, some of our furniture came today! YAY! Today we got the love seat and end table, the coffee table and couch will be coming on Friday. I was supposed to get the coffee table today but it didn't pass inspection yesterday so it's getting sent on Friday with the couch.

Gracie loves the new love seat :-)

Here is the new love seat with the end table and the freshly painted wall! :-) I'm loving all of the colors together! The end table looks almost black but it's just a really dark brown!

I think today I'm going to dedicate myself to our master bedroom...I think the Hubster will enjoy coming home to an organized room! Right now it's still a little bit of a disaster ;-)

Speaking of the Hubster....I only have to go to sleep alone the next THREE nights, the he'll be here!!! YAY! I miss this cute face...

And one last thing...I plan on actually doing my hair and getting ready today since we're done painting SO I am going to try and get a baby update in!!! :-) It's been too long, I have some catching up to do!
