My brother-in-law...the genius

My brother-in-law Ryan is a pretty rad, INCREDIBLY talented, and funny dude. He lives in NYC as his own boss creating some awesome websites for companies and individuals. Here's a project we commissioned him with--- merging a new photo of Asher with an old one of his daddy! As usual, awesome job Ry-guy!

Lent/ Starting the Nursery

Doug is doing a very brave thing and giving up all beef/pork products for Lent. He's also giving up CHEESE!! I'm giving up gossip sites on the internet: people.com and perezhilton.com. They're part of my usual daily web-site browsing, so it'll hopefully allow me to use my time more productively.

Doug and I ate at Fogo de Chão prior to Ash Wednesday. We filled up on plenty of meats, cheeses, and veggies. It was a late celebration of our (Engagement/Dating) Anniversary too. We pretty much ate ourselves into a Meat Coma....we'll return right after Easter I imagine. :P
Well we have started on the nursery by first picking up the furniture--gotta start somewhere, right? My dad brought the boxes over on Thursday and Doug and I spent Saturday just opening them up. We still need to stack the hutch/dresses and put the crib together. Here's what we're looking at so far: Yes, we're keeping a surfboard (my Jamaica-colored Fry in the corner) in his room. Woody will be coming by soon to install the baseboard molding and painting some Dr. Seuss stripes.
Don't worry, none of these ladies is me. Ha. I started aqua classes this past week for the first time (since being pregnant). For the first time I felt like I didn't have a belly. It was nice to be reminded that I still have ab muscles.
