Tomorrow is the day!!

Word on the street is tomorrow is PUPPY DAY! Of course....the word 'puppy' is being used VERY loosely since said puppy is about 7 months old now...BUT...I am not going to loose any sleep over that. His breeder tells me she has crate trained and taught him the basic commands ...so hey...I miss the cute fuzzy puppy weeks...but I ALSO loose the poop and pee everywhere...cry all night...outside trips every hour... weeks!! We are completely ready for Cooper's arrival! We've got the food...the toys....the collars and leashes. Poor old Nicky has no clue how his life is about to change ;)

I rearranged my scraproom yesterday and it feels like it has DOUBLED in size!! LOVES IT!! I can't believe I didn't think of putting it this way before. The way I had it made it feel SO small when we are all in there...which is a LOT more than I thought it would be when we built the house. Several evenings a week and almost every Sunday morning the whole family congregates in the scraproom. Jessi and I scrapbook...Rick does his online thang (hunting, fishing and football message boards...fantasy football...and other really stupid man stuff)... Nicky lays on the floor under the table...and Sean harrasses everyone ;) I looked around for a turnabout thingy to put on my table for pens and stuff but had no luck locally...so I was just about to order the one from Oriental Trading when I big ole lightbulb went on over my head! I had a big natural wood lazy susan that my father's ex-wife gave me in storage in the basement!!! EVEN BETTER!! So paired pottery barns idea using glasses for pens and stuff...with my lazy susan and VIOLA...instant CUTE...HANDY...table storage---that holds ALL my most used tools...not just pens and scissors!! YAY!

I LOVE it!! You have soooo much more room!!!
I can't wait to get all my stuff downstairs, looking like Sunday or tomorrow night! I may have to wait for the wall unit to be built but I am just excited that I will be downstairs scrapping and not upstairs by myself. Sophie is gonna love it too, having her craft table downstairs and being able to use it whenever she wants. It didn't even occur to me that I wouldn't like that I was upstairs scrapping but I don't scrap nearly as much because I want to be with Joey in the evening. I know when it is downstairs I will be scrapping A LOT more, since I will be walking by all my stuff all the time!!!!
