3rd Times a Charm!

Mr. Fix-It (aka Bobby) decided to run the wire from our TV jack output to the other wall in the living room (my choice because I liked the TV being on a different wall) by himself. I already knew that changing this set-up would be at least a whole day job for Bobby since other projects in the past have taken him this long, so I was already dreading that!

Bobby has made holes in the wall of our old house when putting in surround sound, but never did anything like this:


Bobby was trying to drill a hole through the floor down to the basement, not through the wall!  Good thing is it is in our stairwell to the unfinished basement, so no one will see it for now. Even better thing is the contractor is going to patch is for Bobby on Tuesday!  I was so mad at him when he did that!

2nd attempt when through the floor joist and the 3rd attempt was finally successful! Now hopefully we can get the living room put back together. However, Bobby is still at this moment fiddling over there with the successful hole and wires.

This will be our first weekend home since the 4th!  Have some touch up paint to do in the old house's bathroom and Bobby needs to cut the grass for the open house on Sunday. Then, back to our new house for more unpacking (hoping we get all or the majority of it done! Can't wait to hang up our pictures, etc to make this house feel more like home!

Natalie Note:

She has demonstrated her ability to push backwards or as we call it "crawl backwards." Today, I put the 'babyproofing' around our stone coffee table (that we can finally set-up and use with the new arrangement in the living room), which is foam padding all around the edges and corners for when she gets to the point of pulling herself up on things. My next 'babyproofing' step will be putting the outlet covers on. She is loving her squealing, screeching voice she has now found...makes life enjoyable :)  Although, I wouldn't have it any other way. I love watching her discover all the new things around her! She ate really good tonight with the pears, broccoli, and peas mixture with a little bit of sweet potato, pumpkin, apple, and blueberry mixture. However, she hasn't drank a 6oz bottle all day (sticking around 4 and 5oz today), but was drooling like crazy today!  I hope these teeth break through soon!
