Overdue


I know this is way over due, but we are starting to settle in the house bit by bit.  Most of the things have been put away...well the things we need the rest is still sitting happily in boxes waiting for me to find a place to put them.  The favorite room by far is the girls dress up room, followed closely by the toy/exercise room.  I have found the girls playing on the weight bench, mostly the play masseuse or dentist.  Mia runs and gets a toothbrush and McKinlee lays with her mouth open while her teeth are checked and cleaned.  Josh and I are loving having two toilets and a dining room where the table can be in the middle.  We are anxious to start changing things to more our style and Josh is finding that leaving me alone for too long leads to lots of projects.  In the last week I have ripped the wall paper out of one bathroom, pulled up the carpet in the dining room and living room, and a few other thing he hasn't seen yet ;)  so we will keep them a secret until he finds them. hee hee  We are mostly happy to finally have SPACE.  The kids will go and play and we won't hear from them for a good hour or so.  It has been nice not being called every 5 minutes or tripping over little bodies.  And I love finding the places they find to hide. Sadly it has either rained or snowed pretty much every day since we moved in so I don't have any outside pictures...hopefully soon.  Keep checking back I will be posting before and after photo's as we go.
