Bada Bing!

My dad's house is done and closed on. That was a long time coming, I think my siblings would agree. It is right around 4000 sq ft total (with an unfinished bsmnt that should be done within the next couple of months), 4 bedrooms (including stef/kasi's giant room that was supposed to be two), and 3 bathrooms. It's also on about a 1/2 an acre.

Quick Tour.

Entry, There's a front room off to the left with a built in windowseat, but I didn't grab a picture of it.


Pretty Kitchen


Another Shot


Small Deck


Family Room


Part of the master bathroom. My dad was so excited to get a 'toilet room'.


The master closet. It's almost big enough to be its own bedroom.


The loft upstairs


Stefani in the giant bedroom she is sharing with Kasi (they also have a walk in closet)


Kylan's Bathroom


Overall, I think he'll be happy with it. Now on to the decorating, yay!

At The Park

What to do when it's almost 70 degrees outside? The park of course!

First you hit the swings. If you're not big enough you get to share...


If this is your very first time you might hold on for dear life.


Before realizing that swings are awesome!


Yep, nothing like a good push from Mom.


Dextin got the crappy side, but he's making the best of it.


Next we made our way to the Slides. We were excited, the babies...eh not as much.


Aunt Stefi was awesome and took Kambri on the Big Slide.


What to even think of that?! What a thrill!


Got it down? Now you get to do it alone, yay!


Yep, I'm excited for more Spring Weather days.

Best Buddies







Justin is hoping these two become good buddies. Currently she enjoys pulling Koda's hair. Does Koda enjoy this? Um, Not so much.

Another set of Best Buddies:


Cutest Cousins Ever? Possibly.

The puppies have their eyes open! They're not terribly adorable yet- that'll come in a few weeks, but their coloring is awesome. My favorite is this little gal. She is going to be a cute little fluffball for sure.

6 Months

It is amazing how quickly babies develop and learn. Six months really isn’t a very long time, but in baby time it can be the difference of this:

Versus this:

A Baby that smiles, laughs, and has a whole variety of facial expressions. A baby who recognizes who you are and gets so excited when you go to pick her up. She can hold her own bottle (for short periods of time, that thing’s heavy!), Sit up on her own, and repeat some of the small consonants I’m saying. Her teeth are coming in and I’ve just noticed she’s outgrowing her baby tub! She loves books, fuzzy blankets, doggies, being carried, and watching everything around her. She hates being woken up, being stuck on her belly, really long car rides, and being bored or hungry (don’t we all?).

It has been awesome to watch her grow, even when it would be nice just to have some me time- I don’t regret it one bit.

We Love little miss Kambri :).

“Why do you keep blinding me?”

IMG00668-20110307-1527

Almost a Smile.

“Mom, honestly, Can’t you see I’m stuck here?”

IMG00676-20110307-1529

I gave her a book. Apparently it was a real page turner.

Trying to fly. Awesome that I caught it on camera.

What a teething baby often looks like.

The reason we currently call her ‘fuzzy head’.

Spring has sprung

At my house at least. Though wasn’t that 60 degree Saturday nice?! I was so excited to pull everything out and to see what else I needed to make. Here’s what we’ve got:

IMG00653-20110307-1026IMG00655-20110307-1026

This one felt like it took forever! But I love how it turned out.

IMG00657-20110307-1027IMG00661-20110307-1028

This one was super easy. Kind of looks it though. Hmm…

IMG00659-20110307-1027

Can I just say how much I love Rod Works! They have the cutest, cheapest stuff, and they always have coupons.

And in other exciting news (to us at least)

My dad’s house is almost done! My sister and I worked as his Real Estate Agents and boy was he difficult. Sorry dad but it’s true. He finally decided to build with Salisbury and he let us pick the colors. It is turning out to be absolutely beautiful! Here’s a sneak peak (it should be done by the end of this week).

That tan trim has since been painted a dark chocolate color.

His cabinets are soooo pretty! I love them. The floor was laid by my dad, my brother Kylan, and Justin. It turned out great despite the fact that they were all dead for two days afterward. I’ll take better pictures once it’s totally done. I am excited, he’s going to let me decorate!

Lucky Me

See what he’s doing? Yep, my husband makes dinner.

IMG00641-20110227-1932

He’s pretty good to me.

So nice when your baby has been ornery all day.

 

P.S. It’s March now so I’m going to pretend spring is on its way!
