Our To-Do List

Brady is home for a couple of days this week, and we’re hoping to successfully cross a few things off of our current running to-do list.

But first, we had to actually write down the to-do list. And its kind of super long. But none of it is too complicated, so we’re working on it. Dekker and Rowan slept in really nicely, so they’re all doing great and feeling very well rested. With that, everyone is playing super nicely together and Brady and I are able to get a few things done.

We have a handful of calls to make, some of which we’ve made already and some that will wait. We have a few actual chores to do, so laundry is humming away and the boys room is completely rearranged. We also have made a reasonable plans for running errands tomorrow in the city. Lots to do!

The weirdest things that are on our list are making decisions. Do you guys ever have those kinds of things on your lists? “Make final decisions about…..” We have a number of those this time around. One of them is making final decisions about our deck plan. We need to to choose officially which treated boards, what width of stairs, how many stringers, how to do the posts, etc. We also really want to book our deck build weekend! But we’re waiting on our permit to go through still. Its been one week, and we were told two different things by one person. The first time, we heard two weeks. The second time, we heard that it could really be any length of time. Sooooo we don’t know what to expect. But we want to schedule the pile digging/pouring, and the actual build as soon after that as possible. So we have lots of things to plan and lots of decisions to settle on. We’re in full focus mode over here.

All together, there is a lot going on over here, and its just all happening slower than we had originally hoped :/ But we’re still clipping along. Our deck is priority one on our job list, though, so wish us luck! Solly turns one on May 31st, and we would LOVE to have our deck completed by then!! If our permit takes another month to come through, we’re going to be shouting for help 😜 Be ready!!
