A New Home

We will be calling this place home come August. You can see almost everything from this one picture. Starting from the left is the living room moving back to the dinning room. The doorway you see leads to the kitchen. From the kitchen moving to the right the hallway has a pantry to the side, a door that leads to the basement, and a bathroom on the left. On the right is the door to our bedroom which you can see far back on the right side of this picture. we have a small walk in closet. Coming out of our bedroom is a coat closet and lastly the door to our Charlie's bedroom. I forgot to mention there is a mudroom off the left side of the kitchen where the laundry also resides. So there you have it, a tour of our new place, for those of you who don't dare step foot in Provo :) Its cute, cozy, and will be a bit tight for our family of 4.

Here are the pictures that first caught my eye to this perfect little place. I wish it could look this good with our furniture in it. But obviously they didn't have children!


 i love all the windows and natural light! I love the wood floors! I love the updated kitchen and the huge pantry. I love all the built in shelving (unseen in all pictures)...it'll be a great place. We have been down twice to move in some things and each time i take a big breath hoping it all works out. I worry only about the size. What i told you is what it has. 2 bedrooms 1 bath. Will i be able to have a baby sleep in my room? How long? Will Charlie and Olive be able to share a room? At what point do i try? Will they wake each other up in the night whether they are in the same room or not? Am i going to get any sleep these next two years? I hope so. I am planning for the worst but hoping for the best. I don't know what life will be like with 2 babes to care for. Charlie has been such a delight and i feel such love and comfort in being his mother. But now that i am comfortable, its time for change and growth...i guess. 
After one of our visits, i was so overwhelmed with all these questions. Andy took me to the temple, and although none of my concerns were answered, i felt peace. I felt it would all work and would be OK. So i am trying to trust that and remember that, every time i get worked up. 
Two and a half months to go :)

  1. I had so much fun catching up on your life. I love the house! Alicia keeps both her kids in the same room and she said they get used to the crying and most often the one not crying wont even wake up. My mom has said the same thing about us twins at night. I have complete faith in you! I also see your fears, I can't imagine having two kids. I am already terrified for the second. Good thing its not for a couple years.
