Office remodel, episode two
This should surprise no one except for maybe the two people who just googled CONSTIPATED WALRUS BALL and pulled up this website for the first time that Jon has spent the last ten days researching the gravy out of how to use all his new video equipment. Also, we've been to therapy since the last video, and so this episode of our office remodel doesn't have the I REFUSE TO THANK YOU FOR UNLOADING THE DISHWASHER WHEN I HAD TO ASK YOU TO DO IT IN THE FIRST PLACE kind of tension going on.
However, I've heard that kind of tension is good for make-up sex.
(Skip that part, Dad. Mom, you know what I'm talking about.)
I think you'll like the improvements, including the surprise at the end. And yes, without giving too much away, that is photographic evidence of the mustard yellow pajamas and dead bird on my head from the weekend. Who loves you?

Mmmmm, Tyrant. I love you.
Nice ass, Heather!!
I want that mustard yellow shirt. And man, am I glad that someone else has crazy weird hair like mine when I wake up.
GO MARLO! She's mobile!!!! I love how Jon called her Frankenstein. Too cute.
I love how Chuck and Coco-Furrocious both were inside the cabinet. I love those dogs.
Love the room! Not too keen on the tables in relation to the rest of the room, but maybe I will like them more once I see the other pops of color you add in.

Marlo's first steps were so touching to watch... Then the BITCH fruit montage, LOL.. and the big finale with a booty dance?! Speechless.

laughing my ASS off at the "surprise" at 3:18 - haven't gotten to the end yet :-)

OH. MY. GAWD. That baby! "Yay Frankenstein"! Lololol. That and hiding Coco and Chuck in the cabinet were my favorite parts. (Also, I love how Coco comes out all, OMG Chuck what just happened? And Chuck is just like, {shrug} I'm used to it.)

"Littlest of ease"? :D
Sounds about right!

Really liked the video. Are those couches comfortable?
09.01.10 - 07:20 AM / 9talibaba said:
<3!
Could you possibly share sources for the furniture?

Oh, those damn squirrels and their literacy!
Love the furniture. Brave choices with the tables. I don't think I could ever be that brave, but it does nice things to your furniture. Kudos!

Looking great! Love the old school movable side tables. Great colors.
Yay on Marlo's first steps. She seems quite proud of herself.
The squirrels are out for blood. You'd think they'd be happy that you didn't let one of them die in the window cellar. Whatever. We don't have the mean squirrels in Florida.

hahaha! I just want to say THANK YOU because you made me smile.
I know that you guys do this for money and all, but I just want to say that I really appreciate what you do. I really look forward to coming here every day. :)
ALSO: I also want to say that Jon's work on the video really paid off, great job, Jon!
09.01.10 - 07:32 AM / 14Mom2Gizmo said:
NICE butt-waggle. Also, Marlo is adorable. Love the squeal!
09.01.10 - 07:44 AM / 15cinddmel said:
I'm loving your choices of furniture and the way it's all coming together.
So cute and thank you for sharing Marlo's first steps with us, loved it.
Can't wait for the next episode!

Coming together nicely! We have the same shelving/storage units as Tyrant's in each of the twin's bedrooms, though we went with a lighter color option. Love the dark for Tyrant's office.

Side tables: lovely
Couch: I want one just like it.

You are such a super star now. Oh come on, trade lives with me.
09.01.10 - 08:10 AM / 20freckleface said:
Coco and Chuck in the cabinets... HILARIOUS!! And Tyrant is sooo cute. I mean, imposing.
Oh my gosh, when Marlo took those first steps I made a squeal to rival hers. SO adorable!! And she seemed so proud of herself, too cute.
"Who loves you?" MAN that really hit my funny bone, because I laughed so hard and for so long just reading it. I don't even know why; but I loved it!

This was a great way to start my work day this morning! Everything from Chuck's sweet little face, to Marlo and her kermit the frog legs taking first steps, your excitment, Tyrant and said name in backyard, and then the DANCING. Oh - the dancing. It is what made me laugh out loud at my desk and clearly show I am not working.
So funny. Cheers to mornings like these!
Thanks so much for your humor. No matter what anyone says- you are funny and they can suck it.

ah, you never fail to make me laugh!
Hugs and squeeees to Marlo for walking!

09.01.10 - 08:41 AM / 25JenLo said:
Yes, could you pleeeese share the sources of your furniture. I <3 the Tyrant's shelving unit.

I can't view the video and the link doesn't work either! ;(
09.01.10 - 09:14 AM / 27lizneilvoss said:
It's killing me to be at work and know that I have to wait until I get home to watch this!
@JenLo - Judging by one of the links posted above (by @mhsqrd), and my ridiculous ability to point out something from IKEA, I'm going to guess that you mean this shelf?: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30147736
I don't have that one in particular, but I do have three shelves from that line, and they're great.
09.01.10 - 09:16 AM / 28Kristi said:
I need a SOURCE for that awesome shelf unit in Tyrant's office! NEEEEEED...
I <3 Tyrant too... and the BITCH in apricots is priceless.
The most wonderful thing, though, is how well Chuck matches the rug - or rather, how well the rug matches Chuck. I just love those dogs!

Oh man, Marlo just keeps getting more adorable (and Leta looking very grown up in the family pix).
I love having these voyeuristic peeks into your family's life but not in a crazy stalker kind of way, I promise.
