When Kelley gets back, we look forward to seeing "little man"!<br /><br />And yea for James, too, for finishing the tilework. That is a highly-skilled job - you could have a second career (although 1 bathroom every 2 years probably wouldn't pay the bills)Susan Ficklinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12398399218926231927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538217317031311158.post-14534299580375073782010-06-29T13:19:28.591-04:002010-06-29T13:19:28.591-04:00James did finish up all the final touches before E...James did finish up all the final touches before Ethan was born (a few weeks ago.)
