The move in update

We have been in our new house for a month and a half now. These pictures are from the day we were moving in. We have furniture and some decorations up and are settled in now. We still need to decorate the bedrooms but we save those projects for the weekends. We have really loved being here and the girls have felt right at home.







We had lots of help from mine and Charlie's family to help get us moved out and moved in. It was an exhausting week and I couldn't have done it without them. My parents flew out to help and the girls had fun seeing their grandparents.


Once we got settled in the summer became more enjoyable and it went by way too fast. Aubrey is 2 1/2 and swims all over the pool like a fish. She loves to dive in and get rocks at the bottom of the pool. She also potty trained herself a couple weeks ago. I thought we were going to have the same challenge we had with Hailey being fearful of going number 2 in the toilet but she conquered those fears and is doing great. Hailey was a good big sister and played well with Aubrey during all the long summer days and moving around. The last 2 weeks of summer break they started fighting more and I knew that although I wasn't ready for school to start it was probably time. She had her first week of 1st grade and seemed to like it, she says it's a lot of work. Aubrey is really good with me at home and likes to help me out and is fine with whatever I choose to do. We have one more month before our baby girl is due and then life changes again.

Your house looks pretty sweet. I love the dark wood flooring, and that kitchen look pretty nice. Marble with a nice big center island. Aweesome! The range is calling my name, with the water spout begging for attention. Was the house a pre-existing floor plan, or did you and Charlie customize it?
