Still Kickin' Down Here!
Well, we are moved in to the new house!
The carpets are no longer perfectly clean, the kitchen vinyl has black scuff marks, the microwave needs cleaned, sink is full of dirty dishes and there are dirty hand prints along the wall in the stairs.
Almost every door in the house has a childproof doorknob lock. "We're hooomme..."
It is nice to have so much space for everyone to spread out with their stuff.
As I sit in our bedroom, there are NO TOYS scattered on the floor. Rule #1 in the New House: No toys in Mommy and Daddy's room!
Rule #2 is: TAKE OFF YOUR SHOES! And yes, it is usually yelled after the stupid orange, wet, sticky, clay/dirt is tracked across the beige carpet. This is a rule I would love to strictly impose, but it is very hard for all of us to remember!
I can't imagine why they even sell carpets in GA that are any colors other than dark brown, red or orange. Maybe black.... except what would the green pollen look like tracked in on black carpet?
Skip the black carpeting idea...
The backyard fence is finished, Alexander and Abbey (puppy) are very happy. It looks great.
We have furniture coming this week for the family room downstairs and hopefully the satellite will be hooked up by next week. The kids are missing their 'electronic nanny'.
Catelin may be in Disney-Withdrawal. I'm pretty sure that is a real diagnosis.
I say we are moved in, and we are fully functioning, but there are still many-many-many boxes to be gone through. Therefore, we still can't get a car in the garage. And there has been no decorating at all.
How can you decorate without furniture or curtains? So, it's really out of my hands at this point..... uh, huh... **nodding head**
I cannot even contemplate all the boxes that are in Mom's garage. We'll have to fetch those this summer.
"I can't think about that right now... If I do, I'll go crazy. I'll think about that tomorrow."
Name that movie!
I will try to get some new pictures of the kids up this week.
We'll talk to you all soon.
