Well, we are slowly but surely getting settled into the new home. First thing we did was go out and buy Xander a toddler bed. We figured he was going to have problems adjusting anyway, it was time to get him out of the crib. Here are pictures of him taking a nap on Sunday after church our first full day here.

We got a gorgeous plant from Ang and Ryan as a house warming gift. Here is a picture of that.

I also (as most of you know) have been ANXIOUS to finally be able to paint my home. Here are a bunch of before and after pictures of our living/family room area (note the hallway isn't quite done yet, but will be the same green color).
Living Room Before:

Living Room After (note Jared got an early birthday present of a new 42" LCD TV. I think it is WAY bigger than we will EVER need, but Jared thinks it is perfect (we gave our old 27" LCD TV to my parents in exchange for their washer and dryer. Thanks mom!) ):

Family Room Before (note I did paint the brown wall, I just forgot to take a picture of that wall white)

Living Room After:

We tried giving Xander a bath in our big jetted tub, and he FREAKED OUT. Not sure why. So we had Jared (in his bathing suit) take a bath with Xander, and this time he loved it (that is until we turned on the jets. Then he FREAKED OUT again).



Still so much to do to make it OUR house. But we love it, and are excited to have a home.

Wow! Looks like it's really coming together.
Wow! I hate painting....but Bryan loves it and will get things painted in a day! Crazy!
I love the picture of Xander sleeping in his little bed. Once our basement is finished then Spencer will be moving into his new room and we will begin the transition into a big boy bed.
Awesome colors!!! i love your house it's super cute.
I was really surprised when I saw the picture of Jared and Xander in the bath tub! I am really glad he had swim trunks on! I still want to lick your wall, it looks so tasty even in just a picture!
I can't wait to see the house live and in action! I love it! The house looks so nice. I admit that I was a bit concerned before I scrolled all the way down and saw Jared wearing swin trunks. Phew...
Why does Chatzy want to lick the wall?
Your house looks BEAUTIFUL. I can't wait to see it in person. By the way, nice plant.
Xander has the cutest smile in that picture in the tub.
I love your house! Boy, the colors really give it personality! So much better than the boring white walls. Love the tub picture! You guys are awsome!
Love the colors you picked! can't wait to see it one of these days!
Good luck with everything!
