Home Sweet Home

We haven't had internet or cable for the last few days so I've felt a little out of touch, but we're back up and running here in Rochester. It's been a LONG week, but we're finally in our new home and starting to make it look like ours. We spent most of the weekend painting and making small trips with some of our belongings and thank goodness since the 24' Budget truck we rented ended up not being there Monday morning. What a fiasco that was... a couple hours before we moved we ended up getting a 17' U-haul. All of our stuff didn't fit in the truck so the people helping us move had to load up their cars with our belongings. What a great group of people! Anyway, here are some pictures of how we've changed the place. We've still got a few boxes to unpack and pictures to hang, but at least we have my brother Tyler here to help. Now it's off to Montreal tomorrow!

























So that's the house. Here's an update on Ethan since I know that's why people bother looking at the blog in the first place. Ethan has attempted to eat rice cereal, but we can't exactly say it's been successful. We'll keep trying though. At least he enjoys sitting in his Bumbo... even if his thighs get stuck every time.

Geez, you unpack and set up shop like a machine! I still need to hang some more things up and actually finish decorating this place and we've been here for a year now! The joys of a basement, it's where house projects go to die...

congrats on the cutest house ever, it feels good doesn't it?

Your house is fabulous!! And I'm glad that Ethan's thighs get stuck. Naomi isn't the only one. Blame it on the Mudricks. They were happy, chubby babies, too. We miss you guys! Have fun in Montreal!

Didn't you say this house was from the 1920's or something? It looks brand new inside! I really love the wood floors, paint colors, and all the crown molding and trim. Gorgeous. Owning a home is so fun/stressful. You will love it though. We have been in ours 4 1/2 years and are just now getting around to painting our bedroom!! =)
