Pictures....FINALLY

Front of the house

Okay so we have been in our house for a couple of months and we finally feel settled in. This pregnancy has been pretty rough so blogging has taken a back seat. But I finally have some pictures of the new house. Hopefully more will follow, along with some decor and crafts and other things I have been working on.

                                                              

Christmas Time!

We are officially in

So we have moved into our house. It's wonderful, spacious, and everything I could ask for. There are a few quirks but I will take the bad with the good. I am tired, swollen, sore, and short on patience. But I can't complain too much.

Currently I am hijacking someone's internet signal so I can't post pictures. But hopefully we will have phone and internet soon. Along with pictures :)

Stay tuned!

Packing

Packing is hard. Especially with three small children running around taking things out of boxes. I have resorted to putting T in his room with the gate up when he becomes too much of a terror. That is until I found him like this...
I need to come up with a plan B. Duct tape perhaps??
The packing/cleaning/purging/organizing process is going SO SLOW! We are in the final processes of closing and we are chomping at the bit. Hopefully my next post will be pictures of an empty apartment and a full house!!

Not so patiently waiting for our fresh start

We are about to buy our first house....EEEKKKK! We have waited 8 years for this day. We are set to close the end of September. I think this is going to be the longest month of my life.

Our apartment seems mundane and I have zero motivation to do anything. All I can think about is "what color curtains will I have?" or "those plants in the front yard have GOT to go". Oh, and having a pantry!! Heaven on earth!!

But as I sit and wait, my to-do list grows longer and longer. So the first few posts will be my adventures in sorting, purging, packing, and cleaning. For now, check out these sites on natural cleaning. It's something I really want to do when we get to our new house. Free ourselves from chemicals as much as possible. Not to mention saving $$$.
