Starting with Sunday night when we dropped Ryan off at the airport. So sad. He was gone from Sunday night until Friday night. Needless to say I was getting ready for a hard week ahead of me. And little did Wilson know that he wouldn't be seeing daddy for a while.
So we got home I put the baby to bed and got to work. Here is our kitchen before! Sunday night I took all the door's off and started to take the hinges off. By the end my hand was killing me (I had to do it all by hand).
So here is no door and no drawers. Please don't mind the mess that it created and don't notice how messy our cupboards are with no doors.
Monday morning we took the door and drawers over to my dad (he was soooooo soooo kind and he sprayed them so they would look so nice!). Then I think it was Thursday by the time I got the primer from dad so I could prime everything left at home. Tammy was soo soo kind to take Wilson while I did it. Funny story. I told her I only needed an hour and I was surprised when I was done in a hour. I went and got him then came home to take this picture and when I looked at it I noticed something looked wrong. Can you find it?
Yep that is right I totally missed the entire bottom half. So that night after I put the baby to bed I had to paint some more.
Here is everything primed finally! And TADA!!!!! The final product. Dad was so kind to come out Friday and put on hinges and hang everything. And he did it all. By Friday Wilson was so stuck to me thinking I might leave him too, and having a week that was totally messed up with hardly any naps that I couldn't put him down.
If you ignore the dishes and random things in the room and image that they have nice knobs it looks 100 times better! THANKS DAD!So my dad spent all week painting for me. Most of Friday at my house finishing and then took Wilson and mom and I to dinner. What a great dad!!!
Friday night we went and picked up Ryan and went home. It took Ryan from I think 9 until 11 before he even went in the kitchen to notice my surprise and I am so glad that he really likes it!Saturday we got to relax for a little bit and then it was time to take the big boy to his first UTAH football game!
He did so much better than I thought he would. He spend most of the game just hanging out. My favorite part was when he stood in front of me holding on to the chairs in front of us and when the crowd would cheer he would start to scream oh and try to pull the hair of the guy in front of us. People around us were so kind and nice to him!And last picture. Yesterday I decided that Wilson's hair was getting too long so I borrowed our friends clippers and clipped away. It went a little shorter than I wanted but it still looks good.
And since he got his dad's hair it will grow back in like two weeks.

Kitchen looks great! What a great dad to help you out esp when you had a time limit. Oh, and little Wilson looks so cute with his new haircut. It's amazing how much older they look with it cut. Did you save a piece of hair???
NICE WORK! I love home improvements and how big of a difference it can make! Glad to see Ryan got home safe and you enjoyed the game @ the U. Season tickets again? Wilson is so big and cute.
