Daddy's Saturday Project



A couple of weeks ago while I was working and Mike was home with the kids I got a phone call from Colten. He was saying swing set, swing set and then Mike got on the phone and told me he wants a swing set. I thought that we should wait another year because our boys are 1 & 2 (almost 2 & 3). But Mike was all they really want a swing set to play on like the neighbors (these boys have him wrapped around there tiny fingers). So the next day we headed out to Toys R Us and bought the boys a swing set. Then it snowed and rained and everything else. So finally on Saturday Daddy, Gramdpa and Uncle worked for 6 hours to get the swing set put together for the boys. And of course they love it. I guess it was a good idea to get them one. I am still a little nervous with Conner but he doesn't try to climb all over it yet.

Future Plumber?











Last Night after we finished our spaghetti dinner I took Conner's shirt off because he was of course a huge mess. I was getting ready to get the bath ready when I noticed this. And yes that is our dog begging right alone with our son. Mike worked late so he did not eat dinner with us. Conner has been pulling down his pants lately and I guess this time his diaper was coming down too!

New House!

We are pretty much settled in our new house. Most of the boxes are unpacked but we still have a little more organization left. Hopefully the rest of our blinds will be here this week because I would like to stop flashing the neighbors when I am taking my shower in the morning. I really have a towel up so they can't see but it is kinda white trashish, but hey it is Granite so we probably fit in good.






This is our formal dinning room which I love because I have somewhere nice to eat when people come over and there is enough room for all of my china and crystal.

This is our family room that is the perfect size for our furniture. Also as you can see there are no toys in this room and that is because we now have a play room for all the toys.
Here is the playroom, the kids are in bed and that is why it is clean.

And finally the kitchen, I thought I was really going to miss having a island but now I love it because I don't have to kids and a dog running around the island while I am trying to cook. I think my favorite part of this kitchen is the dishwasher because it is so quiet. I will say though I am way too short for this kitchen. Anything that is not on the first shelf requires the assistants of a stool. Upstairs is the bonus room and 4 bedrooms. We are hoping to find time to paint the boys and our room soon so when we do I will post pics.
