One year later

Year one in our home, check! Like so many things in life, the time seems simultaneously to have passed fast and slow.

Last bath in the old house. I had already forgotten that we used to bathe her on the main floor.

Shopping for paint colors the first weekend. Oh my, the painting we had ahead of us.
She was excited to finally unearth a few toys once we the move was complete...and continually ran in circles around the open main floor for weeks.
Those jammies above? EJ wore them last night. Granted they were small on A in this photo and big on EJ last night...BUT STILL.

Can't believe it's been a year. So much work/love this house still needs, but I feel good about how much we have accomplished. And with the exception of the final weeks of the upstairs project when I was 15 months pregnant, we have enjoyed most of the work. ;)

Completed:
- install of full organizational rack/hook/cabinet system in garage
- clearing out of all vines covering the fencing in the backyard, dead and dying landscaping from 3 unnecessary beds, removal of four cement lawn ornaments the previous owners left and two pallets of landscaping bricks
- complete upstairs remodel - all flooring, trim, paint, light fixtures, doors, hardware, ceilings, etc in three beds, two baths, hallway, and balcony 
- front door and patio makeover 
- mini back patio makeover 
- front landscaping full re-do, grading and re-seeding of backyard
- launch of the office makeover...gotta get on that one!

A great year. Here's to many more. :)

Xoxoxo.
