FINALLY!!

Well, the bedroom is finally done, YAY!! It's been a slow process, Dale has been painting almost every night after the girls go to bed but we are very happy with the results. It's a big change, we went from a boring, all-white room to sage green on the walls with burgandy accents. We did the bathroom in a light tan with the same burgandy color. Here's a quick picture, I think Dale did a great job with the painting.

In other news, Rylee has finished another season of swimming lessons this week. She can now do freestyle, a little bit of backstroke and even some butterfly!! I'm so proud of her, the age-group coach wants her to join the team next year but I'll let that up to Rylee. I don't want to put any pressure on her but it would be great to see her swim like I used to!
Avery is turning into a little princess. She found one of Rylee's old hats and now loves to run around the house wearing the hat and a pink bracelet. She also LOVES to take showers and will ask for one first thing in the morning, I think she's a little clean freak already! Her speech is expanding daily, she has started to put words together as well. Her new love is Minnie Mouse, she drags "mimmi mouse" around all day and gets upset if she can't find her so I'm sure you can figure out what her Halloween costume is ;-). Rylee's will remain a secret for those who don't already know.
Well, that's the update for now, look for Halloween pictures after next week. Our house is decorated, the pumpkins were carved this morning, the pumpkins seeds have been baked and the costumes are ready to go so we are just waiting for the big day now!
