New House

We moved this last saturday. I forgot how stressful moving is. It's nice to have a house of our own. I was trying to put the baby locks on the cupboards and draws. It was MUCH harder than it seems. I had to go buy an electric drill, but it didn't make it a whole easier. While I was sweating away, Aaron was doing what he does best- pulling everything out of the drawers. Ironically I was working so hard to prevent this. So that's what the picture above is.
He was making some good faces today. He woke up quite happy (and then it went down hill after that). Aaron's language skills are getting better. He understands more of what I say to him and can follow commands better. He's picked up two new words. The first is "ciao ciao" and the second is "grazie". Which are hello/bye and thankyou. After I warmed up his milk this morning and handed it to him, he smiled and said "grazie" and did the sign for it before he started eating. It was the sweetest thing ever.

This is the new house. Our new address is: 3713 Christy Hill Way, SLC UT 84118
It's a split level entry, and this is as you come up the stairs. The house is almost completely tiled except for the bedrooms.
This is the family room just to the left as you come up the stairs.
To the right is the hall that takes you to the bathroom and 3 bedrooms.
This is the upstairs bath. The rest of the house was not in a state to take pictures of. The basement has storage under the stairs, small laundry room, living room, and one small bedroom. It's nice to have our own place, but stressful knowing we have to pay for anything that breaks!

I love the picture of Aaron's handiwork in your kitchen. I can so tell that Aaron and Isaac are about the same age. My kitchen looks like that more often than I like. :) The house looks beautiful. Congrats!

Congrats on the house! Aaron is darling....the drawers are worth it, I'm sure. We need to get together, girl! By the way, I got all my rugs at walmart...they have some cute stuff for cheap, and I'm cheap. Maybe we should go shopping sometime. :) Happy conference weekend!
