Soooo much catching up to do.

Hey-OOOOO

So I have been super MIA and I have a thousand reasons why but who really cares? You are here to hear about what is going on in our lives and see the progress of everything right?

We are officially living in our beautiful home. 
WE LOVE IT! 
Annabelle loves that she can run everywhere and she loves the wood floors, she is constantly stomping her feet and running through the house yelling. She has become much more independent, and it has been a relief that the move was such a smooth transition for her.
I have yet to have everything in its place and the house cleaned up enough to take photos but I will give a sneak peek...

The kitchen looks amazing! Everything is beyond perfect. Ah! I still can't believe it is ours and that Adam and his dad built it ALL.

I decorated the shelving units at the ends of the cabinets with items from our wedding. The cake topper, candle holders and vases.

 Annabelles room got a fresh coat of paint and a chair rail before moving in! I wish I had an updated photo but I don't yet and she is sleeping right now in her room so this is all you get so far :)

Dada putting up her hold backs for her curtains.
 Belle gettin her shoes out of her closet.
 Start of our room coming together. Still lots to do!
 The beginning of my wall collage in our bedroom
 We have the hardest walls in America. I had the hardest time hanging anything!!


 Beginning of our living room :)

 Belle loves having the back door to look out of...especially when Dada is out there grilling. Moe Bear too! There are lots of bunnies that they both get really excited about seeing.
 There is a park right around the corner at the elementary school and we go every chance we can. She had a play date with a little boy Parker the other day. We had a picnic and played for a couple hours. It was a blast!
 She loves the swings!!!!
 One of my first DIY projects for wall decor.
 My little helper
 I had this metal wall hanging at the old apartment in our living room. It went really well with our decor at the old house but does not go at all with this house. So I spray painted it white.
 I also spray painted some frames I got for a dollar at Wal-Mart
 Then I took a piece of paper and swiped the paint while it was still wet to make it look distressed. It worked out really well :)


Not sure where it is going just yet but it will have a home soon enough.

I will be working my little butt off to get everything else in order this week but it seems like it is never ending! 

Adam and his Dad just finished putting up the backsplash...they started at 1pm...it is now 1030pm. They are the best. 

Did I mention it looks amazing?!?!?!

Can't wait to share it with ya'll.

Hope everyone has a great Monday tomorrow. Can't wait to get back in the swing of blogging so I can continue to update you all with what's happening with this little bitty family
