This is our new front porch. As you can see we took quite a chunk of the wall out and it now opens up to our family room. We still have a little to do, the entertainment center in the left of the picture is looking for a new home and the old table is also going to go. Then, Ed is going to build some window seats that will store the boy's toys out of site.
This picture was also taken from the front porch. We opened up the wall so we can walk straight into the new kitchen with groceries. Very handy compared to the old kitchen. Ed still has moments of standing in front of the stove when he will turn to me and say, 'remember when we stood here to do our laundry'.
Different view from the same area as above.
I took this one from the place where my old kitchen sink used to be. You can see on the porch why we are looking forward to those window seats to store the toys.

I have to apologize for the pictures. I realized after uploading them that a certain someone had been playing with my camera after he ate an apple so things are a little fuzzy, but you get the gist.
We are doing well - scrambling to finish organizing the little things that I have fixated on and are making me crazy before Rory is born. I am healthy but have developed gestational diabetes which is being managed with diet and exercise very well. A few more appointments have been added to my schedule but not to bad. We like my endocrinologist a lot. Very nice lady who was very patient with Joe while she explained the basics to Ed and I at the first appointment.
Speaking of fun things to do I have to go check my blood sugar and feed the two year old who will become very cranky if I mess with his schedule.
Love you all Nikki
