The dining room

We have been working hard on the dining room- painting, putting up wainscoting, a chair rail, and crown molding. I am so excited for it to be finished! It's going to be beautiful! I will definitely post some pics of the finished product. Of course, Ella has been in the thick of it all, "helping" to paint, measure and hammer.
"Does this look right, Daddy?"
"Don't worry, guys- I'LL measure it!"
And I have to mention- Ella said one of the sweetest things tonight and just melted my heart. At prayer tonight at dinner, we asked Ella if she wanted to thank Jesus for anything, and she said, "Thank you for the baby in Mommy's tummy and that Mommy's tummy is getting bigger and bigger." So sweet!
