New House, New Year

Our final goodbye to 676 Marshall Ave.


Hello, Hollywood Place!


We are finally getting all settled in our new house. I can't believe it has been three weeks already. Living in such a de-cluttered house while our house was on the market has made me really purge and makes me want to live with less "stuff" everywhere! So, I'm taking my time unpacking all the unnecessary items--picture frames, decorations, etc. The kids really do LOVE this house! We have kind of had a routine to come play in the basement after nap until Greg gets home. It is nice to have space just for toys! We have also basically spent the last week in the house. Elliott started with a little stomach bug and passed it on to me--it kicked my butt! I don't ever remember feeling so bad--thankfully only for 24 hours. Then Greg got it, then Maggie. A family affair:( Not only did Maggie get the stomach bug, but she then came down with a fever that didn't end for 4 days and had an ear infection on top of it. Needless to say, it has been a rough week here. I am really thankful that my kids rarely get sick! Elliott is 10 months old and this is the first sickness he has had and he didn't even act bothered by it. I must blog though that when he did throw up, we were heading down to the basement and Maggie just happened to be in front of us....he managed to get it ONLY on her--her hair, her back. I reacted pretty well and charged them up the stairs to the bath. She was more upset by it than he was! Happy 2011...I am so BLESSED and thankful for my beautiful kids and my amazing husband:)
