New House!!

So we finally got the keys to our house, and yesterday we went to take a look at what we need to do - boy are we going to be busy!!! I spent yesterday tearing down wallpaper with Dan's dad. That is a lot of work...took hours to do! Today we were back at the house (except me, I had to go to work) and put in another full day. Dan will be ripping out the main floor carpet, as there is beautiful hardwood underneath and we will be doing a massive paint job throughout! Our stuff that was in storage arrives on Monday - we've been living out of a suitcase so to speak, since November. It will be so nice to unpack everything once again and set up. We will probably move ourselves into the house (and out of Grandpa and Grandma's house) later next week.
We've taken the "Before" shots of the house and I will try to put them up soon. Sorry I haven't been posting as much lately, things have been getting kind of crazy, getting ready for the big move. Addison is growing like crazy, and has learned to say "No" rather articulately - it is kind of scary. Between that and "cookie" I'm not sure which word she prefers more. She's also climbing stuff like couches and coffee tables and has kind of learned how to pull off the baby gate (ours is a suction, not a swing gate). We are going to be in for some interesting times with that kid, I'm sure! I thought it would be cute to give Addison a piggyback ride last week - now that is the only way she wants to travel...she will crawl behind us while we are on the couch to get to our backs and she'll grab on and expect to go for a ride! Or surprise us if we are sitting on the floor.
Anyways, I will put up pics soon, we will have high speed internet once again in just a few days!! Over and out! :-)
