{KITCHEN REMODEL}

 Our kitchen remodel became a little bigger project than we expected, but isn't that how it always is?  We originally were just going to paint our cabinets, but after talking to our cabinet guy, it wasn't going to be a lot more to change out the doors.  We figured since we were already updating it, we might as well do it right!  We painted our boxing, added shaker cabinet doors & some open shelving.  We went from tile to concrete countertops, and our backsplash went from green to white.  Phew glad we don't have that green anymore!  Here are a few pictures, and I will link were I bought everything!

S I X M O N T H S

John was 20 pounds, 3 ounces and 29 inches long at his 6th month check up yesterday.  And the doctor mentioned how happy he was, which is what a lot of people tell me!  Except, of course, when he's hungry & tired.  He's not quite sitting up yet, but he loves to roll around.  He's the perfect little addition to our family.  These past six months have been so fun.  It's especially sweet to see him & James interact.  I can't wait until they can play together.  Thank you Lord for blessing us with sweet Johnjohn.  You are so kind & gracious to us!
