We have a HOME!

So excited to say I am a HOMEOWNER! We closed in June. I am as happy as I am exhausted.

We are re-doing the whole house. Painting, putting tile in,laminate floors, new bathroom fixtures (at least for the guest bathroom), new kitchen counters, we need appliances, new couches... the list goes on... and on... and on.

It is so hard to get much done with the 3 kiddies. Every time I go to the house to do something Lucas cries to be carried. When I go to Lowes, the kids fight over who gets to ride in the shopping cart that looks like a car. They fight over who gets to "drive the car". Sometimes I just put Lucas in the cart and let the girls walk, which then turns into complete chaos. The girls run around the whole store chasing each other, opening doors, touching EVERYTHING.. you know being kids. Meanwhile, I am rushing to get out of there as soon as possible. My stress level goes through the roof when this happens and I try to remain as calm as possible, which let's face it, it is not easy.

Anxiety is getting the best of me. Our lease is up July 31st and there is still a lot of work to be done at the house. I look forward to finally moving in after all the work we have put, and still have to put in. The house is coming out beautifully. I can't wait til' the kids can each have their own rooms, run in the backyard, and I can lay in my big garden tub!


1) What the house currently looks like (yes we tore down a wall)
2) The girls after HIp-Hop class at Lowes w/ mommy and daddy (Lucas is probably running around in the aisle, Juli looks blurry because she can't stay still for more than 2 seconds)
