Spring!!!

Well it has been another week since I have posted and I have more pictures and another update. These are the tomatoes we planted last week. There are a few plants sprouting.
The peppers haven't come up yet. We think they may have been getting too hot in the window so we moved them back onto the table and that seems to help, if they can survive Kami!
Here are a few more pics of the basement progress.
Kaite being our big helper.
Ky found this magazine in the ceiling, it is from January 1974. We looked through it, it had a neat article on color TV's and how they were just a fad!
This is the last trailer load of garbage until we pull all the duct work. And yes we still have snow.
We didn't get as far as we wanted to this week. Ky was doing some side work and had five searches in four days. We are still hoping to spray this week but nothing is set in stone yet. We did hit Home Depot this week and picked up the rest of the studs to frame in the entire basement, minus the three walls with the new windows. I can't wait to get it sprayed and then things will start going really fast. I have been taking pictures along the way, but I won't post until after we spray.
I also want to mention that while we were in HD Kami had a huge milestone. She used a public restroom for the first time and went! Since Ash had a hard time with this this is a big deal for us. Kami has also managed to stay dry minus the morning diaper for the past four days now. She loves her "big girl panties" and will actually cry at night when we put a diaper on her.
Ky had a camp out this weekend with the scouts. I am quickly dreading his camp outs, every time he goes something happens. Last year it was Kaite's appendix before that it was the cat- well there were actually two separate cat incidents while he was gone. This is what happened this camp out.
Ash some how fell while riding her scooter and split her lip open (this is post two days, it was actually quite purple the day of). She managed to do this before Ky even got to the church! She also sprained her thumb real good, but for a moment I questioned whether or not it was broken.
I dropped my phone in the bathtub while bathing Kami. I have actually had this phone for three years and have been up for a new one for awhile. I haven't been able to find anything I really like, so I put in the insurance claim and should be receiving a new one on Tuesday.
Ky thinks I am crazy and should have gotten a new one, but I love my chocolate I am just hoping the replacement is a decent color. I can always return it and get a new one if I decide to go that way. The only problem with a new one is that all the ones I like require a plan change. We have had the same plan since we got phones years ago and it will require a price change to change plans, we like our plan now. Make sense?
We did have some fun while he was gone.
We rented the Princess and the Frog which turned out to be a huge disappointment for me, the girls liked it. We also gave some pedicures, enjoyed some sun, and SLEPT in the next morning. I can't wait to see what the next camp out will bring- NOT!
Oh well, Happy Spring!

At least there weren't any trips to the hospital! It exciting to see your tomatoes coming up! My tullips, daffodils, and croqueses are slowly making an apperance, but I can at least see them!

A few years ago I was helping a friend re-do their basement, and we tore out the ceiling panels, and guess what came out of one?!?! A porno magazine from like the 50s or 60s. No more helping friends fix basements.
