I have only one skill...

and I have recently realized what a great skill it is. What is it do you ask? I can french braid hair. Yep that's right, that's my only skill. And unfortunately I'm not even that good at it. I did both girls hair today and I didn't take a picture of the back because it's really hard to finish off a french braid. I realized that this is the one skill I have because I certainly don't have any skills when it comes to house remodeling. There are three so called bedrooms upstairs in our house. I say so called because one of the bedrooms is more like an office. There's no door and no closet. It's going to be the baby's room, so it needs some work. I had no idea that putting on a door involved so much demo and such a big mess.... see not one of my skills!

Look at those pretty girls!

Did you know all this was needed to install a door? To be fair to Roger, he is also moving the light switch. It's around the corner there on the right and he thinks it needs to be where those exposed 2x4s are. Kevin and Kelly came up over Memorial Day weekend and were incredibly good sports about just being put to work! The picture looks awful because of all the dust, yikes.

When I joke that I only have one skill I say that it's to make good lookin' babies. So you have TWO skills! Because you can french braid hair AND make good lookin' babies. So congrats!

I always wished I could french braid hair. My sister could do it, but I never could figure it out. The girls are so sweet. Are they excited for a new baby?

I need to learn to french braid hair. Not that I have anyone to practice on now. I think it might be a while before I get to use that skill if I develop it.

How bad is that Kevin can french braid and I can't?! I guess that's what happens when he was flirting with all the girls in choir!
