and after. it takes 24 hours to cure, so there is still some tape up and we can't put any of the accessories (like a toilet!) back in the room yet but you get the idea. the shiny new white on the tile sure makes the floor look gross. that's next! and painting the heat register thing. no more tan!
caroline is 7 months old today! it's really hard to believe she's closer to 1 than to 0! though not pictured above, she's getting quite good at sitting on her own, though she is still prone to toppling over. she's also really close to crawling. she can get up on all fours and tries to make forward progress. she is quite adept at barrel rolling across the room to get to where she's headed. this week, she started taking classes at the same gym quentin goes to. it's a little absurd at her age, but she really did seem to like it. there was another baby in the class only a few weeks older than her and she really liked him.
and look at my baby girl sitting all by herself! that's a new skill as of the past couple of days!
she also got the first doses of both flu shots and a couple of other vaccines. she also has a cold or something so we've been dealing with fevers, coughing, drippy noses, and diaper issues. good times. as long as she doesn't get everyone sick at her christening this weekends like a certain brother of hers did at his :)
