Ball Player

My little ball player! Diggin through all the boxes that Nates family brought up for us (moving Nate out of his house finally and I am next with my family!) I found a pink glove with velcro for her!

She loved it and has been carrying it around for the past few days. Hopefully she will be athletic because if she wants to dance or sing then I won't be able to help her out!

Potty Time

This morning Belle insisted I take off her pants and diaper. Then she threw away her own diaper in the trash and went back down to sit on her potty while demanding to watch 'princesses' and drink her juice.

Nothing ever happened but hopefully soon she will train herself ;) no rush though. When she is ready...

Mexican Food

After Nates family left Belle refused to nap so we all went to eat Mexican food ;) sounds like a great idea with an over tired toddler but it worked! We let her sit in the booth and munch on chips and queso. She loved it!

Yard Work

The back and front yard have been groomed! It looks amazing and we have to thank Nates parents for helping us out soooo much!

I would have been completely lost and I bet Lowes would have kicked us out of the store if we had to do it solo!

The day is finally done and I cannot believe I even have the energy to type this short of a post ;) slowly and surly the house is coming together! One room at a time.

Teething!

She is getting her two year molars so I have her an all fruit Popsicle! She obviously loved it and hopefully it gave her some relief ;)

Coming Together!

Well Belles room is starting to look like a room! Her chandelier came in the other day and ties in the masculine walls with the pink accents ;) the gray walls actually make the room a good place to sleep. We are only waiting on the pink curtains which should be in this week. I won't decorate her room until the rest of the house is in working order!!

Now the other rooms that you are looking at are the guest bedroom and the master bedroom. You can see where our priorities are! We figured if we can get her settled first it would make our life easier.

I have to say that doing all this is so much fun! It's nice to be working toward something for ourselves instead of maintaining a rent house.

Moved In!

Sorry for the lack of posts but we have moved in!!! It's been a week but I feel like we have got nothing done at all.

Today we spent the day moving the rest of our stuff from the apartment to the house, unpacking boxes and washing everything, and hopelessly looking for more furniture. There are so many things we want to do so its easy to get overwhelmed.

This is the part about moving that I hate. The in between moment where you want to just relax because you finally have a home but the tug of being productive keeps you from rest. It means sleepless nights and endless list making. Stocking the fridge with the necessities only to eat out because your exhausted.

I have to remind myself that it will take time and I just need to focus on one room at a time! I will show more pics as the rooms get pulled together.

Pigtails.... For real!

I can pull both sides of her hair into pigtails!! So cute but it makes me miss her curls. It also makes her look older than I want to admit! My little one is growing up!

Oh the painting is done and we are working on moving out way into the house this weekend!! Pics to come!

Dining Room

We painting the dining room, that we will never use, a deep blue possibly navy! I was very interested to see the outcome but I love it!! So far the house is coming along great and we hope to be moved in by next week!

Belles Room

Yeah! The classic French Gray is looking good! Now to add some splashes of pink and a cute chandelier!
