We took the plunge, before pics

We decided it was time to start looking for a home and pretty quickly we found the one! After we saw this one we kept comparing every other house to it. Even though it needed TLC, it had four bedrooms, a 3 car (tandem) garage for extra storage, we love the neighborhood, it just felt right!

It needed sooo much work. But we like that in a house, we can make it whatever we want.

The pictures do not even do the disgustingness justice!

The walls and floors and everything were so gross. And we now need to start working on our landscaping (currently even the weeds have died).

We made multiple repairs, painted the whole house, put in all new flooring, updated the light fixtures, ect. It is beautiful. I will post the after pictures just as soon as I take them!

Sweet Babies

My babies are getting so big!

Bye Mommy

I was cleaning and working around the house and I hear Will say "Bye Mom, me leaving". So I quickly go to investigate since he can get through our child-proof front door easy peasy. I find him and he is on his motorcycle, slowly making his way to the front door. I ask him where he is going and of course, he say's "Grandma Papa house". I told him to have fun and that I would pick him up later.

The Big 30

Robby turned 30 this year and to celebrate we had a swim party and BBQ.

Robby got sparkler candles this year... I didn't want him to pass out having to blow out 30 candles :)

We ate good food thanks to Doug, swam and enjoyed the sun, played on the slip and slide, and had fun visiting!

Happy Birthday Robby!

The Fourth

We started Saturday July 3rd out with the church breakfast and parade. We decorated his scooter and he loved it!

Next we headed over to Bragg Woods for swimming and lunch with friends and family.

Lincoln Fireworks were on Saturday night

On Sunday, the 4th, we went to the Walters for a yummy BBQ and swimming.

Will loved the fireworks!!!

Susie and Corey... super excited!!

Sleep Tight!!

About a week ago Will realized that he can just get out of his toddler bed, so I have had to deal with constantly putting him back in bed. Tonight he told me "Me no night night, play Mommy and Sissy" I tried to convince him that I was just going to feed Molly and then go to bed myself, but he wasn't having it. After yelling at me for a few minutes with no response he came out into the living room. So I told him he better not leave his room again. He must have been able to tell I was serious because I didn't hear a peep after that.

A half hour later...

I am walking down the hall to put Molly in bed and check on Will and this is what I find,

I push on the door to go in and this is as far as it goes!

Of course his shoulder is in the way.

So I reach in and am able to move his shoulder out of the way without waking him up.

Atleast he didn't leave his room!
