Finally, getting around to posting some house pictures. Due to lack of computers working consistently and the time it takes a house to not look too cluttered I'm just now getting to it. There's still a little clutter and things to be hung, but I need some motherly advice, so I'm waiting for the rest. This is the living room, the room you walk into when coming in the front door. For now it just houses the piano and a bookshelf. I'd like to put the lazyboy in there someday with a sidetable but I'd have to buy a new chair first. Someday.
This is the family room, on the back side of the house. The living room is off to my left and kitchen behind me. This is where I need wall decor advice from Mom. She's coming in a few days so it'll get done then. There's also a wonderful place for a flat screen tv above the fireplace, the previous owners left the wall mount for us, but we don't have one for this room. Again, someday.
The view standing in front of the tv of the same room, kitchen in the background. There's a sliding glass door to the backyard to the left of the kitchen table.
Hadlee, repeatedly saying, "Hi!" She's frequently standing by herself now and will sometimes take a couple steps at a time.
This is the playroom part of the basement for the kids and Jeremy (it has his big tv and playstation). It's a mess most of the time but picked up today!
On the other side of the stairs is where we keep the desktop and it's the "guest bedroom". Someday when we finish the basement it will be a bedroom if Maddox wants it. It's already carpeted down here so that's nice, just no walls. Behind me in the last third of the basement is lots of storage, the washer/dryer, and the sump pump. Figured you didn't need a picture of that.
This is Maddox's very pink room! Her and Hadlee's room were painted as is when we moved in and we left it that way.
Hadlee's purple room. Not much room in here, she has more furniture than Maddox. It will be nice to move that chair to the basement when I'm done with it for a little more room. Which, by the way, I'm about done with it. She's not really into rocking and cuddling much and she's only nursing once a day at bedtime now so I'm about to quit. Sometimes, if she's too hot or tired she doesn't even care about that one.
This is the awesome shed the Lowe family helped us build over the course of a few days. A very hot, long Saturday to build it, a Sunday afternoon to roof it, and an after work evening to shingle it. It still needs to be caulked, primed, and painted, but it works for now.
So this past weekend we moved all the stuff out of the garage, and into the shed or it's appropriate place in the garage and can now park here! It's so nice to have space and no clutter all over! And now that it's done hailing so frequently we can finally put our cars in! Whoops.

So that's most of the house. I skipped bathrooms for you. The main floor one is red and has our other washer and dryer in it. Looks like a bathroom. The girls' bathroom is very bright almost neon green. I think it's ugly but it's just a bathroom and it's for a 3 and 1 year old so it suits them fine. Our bedroom and bathroom are boring and need to be repainted and decorated. Our bedroom is bigger than our old one so that's really nice, but was last decorated in the late 90s and looks like it. Another thing for the "someday" list.
Now that we're more organized and have more room, come visit us!
