Finishing

It's not a remodel. The remodel started about four years ago give or take. The fridge, stove, dishwasher, sink, and cupboards were moved and an island was added. A large french door was put in and windows were removed or replaced. The island received a tiled counter top but the rest has had left over pieces from other projects on it for years. Cabinets were stained, wainscoting was put up, and the whole room got a new coat of paint. New lighting was added above the island, new wiring, and an above the stove microwave installed. Piece by piece Dad Berg has been putting it together. 

He has been hit with finishitus. He put drawers in the canned food cabinet the other day, leveled the cabinets, put up backer board, and this week-end he and Mom will lay tile down. 

It has been a long journey, but the end is in sight!

Proud

I am a proud Mama.

My little guy is such a big helper.

Sunday we do shopping for the daycare and house. We bring in the groceries and put them all away.

Sunday Stomper was down and running around and saying "Me? Me?" as he dragged the bags of groceries across the floor. I let him put the canned goods away, haphazardly of course, but they were away and the door shut. Then he handed me other canned goods for me to put in higher shelves and in the freezer. Today we had to move items from one freezer to another. He happily carried bags of green-beans and peas from one room to the other for me.

This little guy of mine is growing rapidly. His little hands are growing stronger, dexterous  adventurous, confident, and careful. He is speedily becoming less of a baby, despite my efforts to keep him little.

Some day these little hands will be bigger. They won't need my help any more. For now I will enjoy these chubby fingers and their growing independence.
