Almost DONE!

We had a final inspection of the house yesterday and there are still a lot of things that need to be taken care of….but hopefully in the next couple of weeks we will be able to move into the house. I am SO ready for all of this to be finished and to get settled so we can relax! I am so tired here lately, but very thankful for the tiredness too 🙂
Here is the progress…almost finished!

What are your favorite products?

I am a bit OCD about things sometimes and some people will tell you I am a germaphobe. I don’t know what kind of cleaners to use sometimes…what is baby friendly and all that business. So I wanted to get some suggestions from you all on what you use in your homes.

  • What do you use to clean granite counter tops?
  • What do you use to clean your wood floors?
  • What do you use for carpet stains?
  • Can you use regular Tide FREE for baby clothes or do you have to use that Dreft?
  • Is it worth the $300 dollars for a BREAST PUMP? Lordy I had no idea it was so expensive!
  • What is your favorite “clean” scented candle?
  • What is a cheap way you can organize your closet without spending a butt load of money?
  • If you don’t have a plug in the floor then how do you arrange a lamp in a room where your furniture is in the middle of the room?
  • Real Christmas tree or fake…does it matter?

Okay-that is all I can think of….obviously I have a lot of questions running through my head right now. I am so ready to CLOSE on this house and get moved in, but things are taking longer than expected. Hopefully sometime within the next couple of weeks we can be in there and I won’t have the LONG commute to and from work every day! Thank you Lord! Terence on the other hand will be driving the drive now and hopefully he can handle his road rage a little better than I have! LOL!

Visit Home

We had a wonderful, but short visit back home in Arkansas. We basically only got to spend Saturday with family because we drove back home today. Yesterday Nannie, Aunt Karli, Uncle Gary, and Lindsey came to see me and we all went to Cracker Barrel and shopping around town. It was beautiful weather with NO rain finally! I miss you so much already and can’t wait to see you again next month

All the girls
Me, Nannie, and Lindsey (she is getting so big!)

Mom, me, & Dad
I look HUGE!

Mom talking to Connor-she wants to make sure he knows who Nana is!

I love my Daddy!

We found a sock monkey at a baby store, so we had to take a picture for Bonnie

Terence modeling the diaper bag (Mom got us each one)
Making sure it’s “guy” friendly too!

They will have their names monogrammed on the front flap

I neeeed these shoes!

And look at these little loafers!

We also went through some of mine and Bonnie’s old baby clothes while I was there. Most of it was girlie, but this was our Razorback shirt when we were babies.

Cute outfit from Nana

Blanket from Nannie-so soft!

And this was our BARGAIN purchase of the century! We went to Target and I got out the registry gun to add some stuff on there while home and this bouncy seat, which I wanted anyways, scanned for $6.75! Then when we got up to the register is scanned for $1.74!!! I got this $30 bouncy seat for less than $2.00!!! Crazy! The guy at the register scanned it like five times and finally gave up! Thank you Aunt Karli!!! 🙂
