Dreaming of New Carpet!?! On Video?!?

Ever have one of those dreams where you really like the dream, you wake up to go pottie and when you go back to sleep you try to pick up where the dream left off but, it takes this crazy absurd turn from where you were before you woke up? UGH! I HATE that! I was having this great dream about the guy I would marry if I wasn't already married, and then I woke up. I tried to pick up where we left off and it wasn't such a great dream anymore. Actually, I was a little scared by the turn it took. Thankfully, I woke up again.

I have new carpet upstairs!!!! They came yesterday, did the hall and both bedrooms. They forgot the landing but, they'll be back the end of this week. It looks great! I can't believe it's the same house. All three of us played upstairs for about an hour last night. We put Jacob's big boy bed in his new room (looks great!), I vacuumed and Jacob ran from room to room checking it all out. The cats enjoyed it too - after we went downstairs we heard them wrestling - I found tufts of cat hair all over! I'm so happy with the look of it though. Oh, and the smell! It smells so good up there! No more wet cat/dog/hay smell! It's so nice to be able to have all of the doors open up there! I ordered Jacob's wall border this morning. Thanks for all of your input; I did choose hot rod trucks and I'll get some pics out here when his room is all done. I have to do a little more painting - when I painted the trim up there, I didn't prime it and of course all of the paint peeled off. I didn't know the original was oil based. Lesson learned: when in doubt - prime it.

We also have new toy. It's our Mother's/Father's Day/Gail's/Jeremy's birthday gift. We bought a video camera. To this point the 90 second clips on our digital camera have been enough to get us by but, with Jacob growing and doing so much more, we figured it was about time to capture the bigger memories. Not to mention, he's too dang cute! Of course, we bought the camera and the store was out of tapes so we can't use it yet but, that's always how my luck runs!
