Before we get blown away....

Since Hurricane Ike seems to be heading in our general direction, I figured I better hurry up and post some pictures of the baby's room before our house gets blown away. At least I will be able to show baby McCarthy that we did try to make a nice room for her!

My folks came two weeks ago and were a HUGE help in getting everything together. Before they arrived it was a room full of boxes, tools, and random things we did not know what to do with. In a matter of a few days everything was transformed into a room that we could actually use! Thanks so much to both of them for all their efforts! It would have taken Chris and I an entire weekend to put all the furniture together.

Now that it is September we are starting to realize that this baby is coming very soon. Hopefully we are just about ready for that....I think our credit card is ready for us to be done, that is for sure! The good news is that we have had lots of good distractions to make the time go by faster between hurricanes, family visits, and unpacking seems like the weeks are quickly ticking away. Last weekend we even attempted (not sure how it will turn out) to make a batch of beer that will be ready right around the time the baby comes.

That is about it from not so sunny Florida....everyone is doing well and we are hoping that we make it through our first hurricane season as homeowners in one piece. Oh and lastly, for those of you who keep harassing me.....

Co-Workers

As if it is not hard enough to work from home on some days....my coworker has taken up snoring and grinding his teeth! I suppose I should not complain though, at least my coworker cannot talk and I always know I am smarter than him!

The McCarthy's Enter the Blogosphere!

Since the celebs have not really been doing much interesting these days, I need to turn my internet attention elsewhere. Also, given that we live far away from most everyone we know, I thought it would be a good way to keep everyone up to date on all things McCarthy.

This summer has been somewhat crazy. We went to Virginia for a week, moved into our new house, survived our first Florida tropical storm, and started to realize that we are actually going to have a baby very shortly. All in all, things have been going really well. We have had a few house hiccups along the way, but thankfully, Home Depot and the members of Chris's bowling team have come through big time.

Soon enough we can post up some new pictures of the house. That is all for now from sunny FL......
