In 7 days we will have lived in this house for one whole year. In that year we have yet to put one single picture on the wall. To be fair we moved in, got our stuff delivered, then I got sick and was in bed for 10 months - so, we have a good excuse. Now that Xander is here and I've recovered it was time to actually move into this house! The last two weekends we've done a bit of work and the kids have all told me it is starting to feel like our home now.
Our first big project was to find a home for all the books we have. Last weekend we installed these shelves and organized the library. Before we were done all 5 kids were laying down somewhere in the house reading a book while I finished up. It made me so happy to see how much they love to read!
We have these beautiful doors in the front of our house that lets in a ton of light. Unfortunately they were being blocked by a couch so today we rearranged the whole music room. I love it so much more! The kids have been playing guitar and piano all day.

This kid has totally taken advantage of the fact that everyone is busy doing something and has gotten into everything. Besides tossing our ferret in our AC vents, he drew all over his body with a marker, dumped out all his toys, sprayed all the kitchen windows-table-walls with a spray bottle, driven his motorcycles over every surface in the house, and has been dancing and showing off his cool falls in the music room.
He was begging to go outside with Xander and go for a walk - but it is still too hot for Xander so Christopher took him by himself. With how busy he has been today it's no wonder he fell asleep!
Chris even brought him inside and he stayed asleep. He never does that anymore! Unfortunately it was 5pm. Uhg
And this baby is pure perfection and the best cuddle buddy.
