The Painting Has Begun!!

Yesterday afternoon, Dan began painting. He started with our office as it is the smallest room and was in great need of new paint. The color you see is called "sparkling sage". We were trying it here first because if we liked it, our plan is to use this color on the whole main floor of the house. We will do the trim white as you can see for the contrast. I think we are happy with the color and will gradually proceed as time allows. Dan got all the walls and some of the trim done in this room.

Elton has officially discovered the stairs from the main floor up to the bedrooms. I was folding some laundry yesterday when I discovered him 3/4 of the way up the stairs. He was pretty proud of himself. I am surprised , but relieved he made it that far without a tumble.

As of today, Bingo has mastered going in and out both dog doors. He is now weighing in at 3lbs 11 oz which means he has almost doubled in size in 4 weeks. Max had come around to him and they enjoy playing tug of war with their rope toys.

Caleb has learned how to do connect the dot in his coloring book and is counting up to 30 and then faking the rest, which he actually is pretty good at.
