We are very happily settling into our new home, finally! I still have pictures and shelves and what-not to hang on walls, but otherwise the house is FAIRLY in order! Rob painted the kitchen cabinets, but has yet to paint the cabinet doors! Once his garage gets cleared up he'll finish the job, but for now I get to look at the exposed innards of each and every cupboard. Yay!
I know I promised before and after pictures. They're coming! Eventually! I'm very disappointed in my ability to take before pictures, however. Most of them don't really give any clue to which room you are looking at. The afters are alright though! And I haven't taken a photo of the outside yet either. I'm slacking off. I know.
Just so you aren't too disappointed in me, I will post photos of our view. Well, part of it anyway. It's impossible to get the whole thing in there.
I'd like Rob to get a good picture with his good camera of all the twinkling lights at night!! It's really something to see!
The boys are happy here. There's lots of room for them to run races. Or... Connor's version of racing anyway. "Come wiff me, Max! Run, Max! We're racing!" Meanwhile, Connor's running circles around Max, who's doing his best to figure out which way Connor's supposed to be going so he can run WITH him!
They've been big, big fans of Winnie the Pooh lately. Which I love, because that used to be my favorite show as a child! Every time I hear Eeyore talking, or listen to Pooh's "I'm just a little black raincloud" song, I'm smiling. With Grandma and Grandpa Uhl's Christmas money, I bought them a few toys. But the best ones of all were a big stuffed Pooh bear and Tigger! They are LOVED!! Connor can't sleep without Pooh now, and if he can manage to sneak Tigger away from Max, he'll sleep with him too!
You can JUST barely see Froggy squished underneath Pooh! Speaking of sleeping, this is how we found Con the other night:
He was dead asleep!! He'd taken off his jammies and put on some clothes. Must have been planning to sneak out of the house later on. The very next night we found him curled up against his bedroom door. Thankfully since then he's been good about getting back under his covers after he's had his fill of night-time adventures.
Max is finally putting words together, thanks to Connor. And he loves eeeevvvvverrrything! His Thomas the Train toy. "I LUHLOO THOMAS!!!!!" His toy computer. "I luhloo puter." Grandma and Grandpa. Connor. Even his breakfast in the morning!
Connor's imagination is coming into full swing too. Today he started giggling out of the blue. He told me it was because Froggy tooted. Then Froggy said "Eeeewwww!!!"
Well, I like to blame it on other people too.
Next post - Due date and possible gender of our last one on the way! (Surprise!)
