Sorry I haven’t updated the blog in the last couple of days. I have been painting the what used to be an office into a nursery. The color that we went with is called “oh so pink.” Yesterday I put on the primer and today I have painted the first coat, expecting to paint the final coat either tonight or tomorrow.

We had to stay at the in-laws last night since the house smelt so bad from the fumes the primer was setting off. To make things worse, the primer was oil-based. My wife and I looked it up on the internet to see that if pregnant, try and stay away from oil-based paints and only use water based products….oops! Well, the paint we have, unlike the primer, is water based and the house doesn’t really smell all too bad now.

We decided to go with the color that we did due to the the decor that we are going with (pictured above). It is called Soho Pink & Brown. After getting married I was starting to feel more and more like “Frank the tank” in Old School. Now with the baby on the way, I am starting to feel it even more. A typical weekend that used to be reserved for going out with friends and having unforgettable, err forgettable, nights have turned into nights where we prepare to make room for a new family member. I just don’t know if we will have time to go to Home Depot or not. (If you have seen the movie, you know what I am talking about.)
