We Bought a House!


These last few weeks have been the busiest of my life, but now that I have a little down time, I can actually catch up. We found a town home to buy, and we finally closed and were able to move almost two weeks ago. I've been packing, cleaning and unpacking for what seems like ages. We still aren't all the way moved in, but we love it already. 
Our neighbors are a little bit crazy, but very friendly. We love our neighborhood, and the park in 
our backyard. Full of trees, and it will be amazing in the fall. Lillie has been a champ, and has 
transitioned better than I ever expected. Although we just got here, it seems weird to picture where 
we were at just a few weeks ago. It seems like we've been here forever, which I think is a good thing. I know this is where we are supposed to be, even though some crazy things have happened like 
finding a fetus on the swing set and having to call the police. 
All in all, it's an amazing place and ward. 
We truly love it here, and we're excited to spend a few more years here. 
Weird to think about where we'll be at then
Lillie will be talking and walking with at least one more sibling and maybe another one on the way before we leave this place. We'll see.

Lillie started saying “mama” officially last week. She says it in the middle of the night, until I go get her. Or screams it if Chase went to go get her. 
She follows me around saying if she's sad, tired or hungry. It warms my heart every time she does. 
She now has 4 teeth on top and 2 on bottom. She weighs 19.5 lbs, and she's in 18-24 month clothes 
because of her height. She's in the stage of scrunching her nose and copying every nose she hears, 
mainly the kissing nose, clicking her tongue, and coughing. 
She climbed the entire stair case, the day after we moved in, which we didn't even know she could do. She surprises us everyday, and her personality keeps growing. 
She loves eggs and spaghetti right now, and yells when she sees a soda can, until we give her some. We love our crazy girl.

We went on a little date night with Lillie last week to a shaved ice shack. We walked about a mile to get there and back. It was so fun and Lillie LOVED it, luckily she woke up late from her nap, so she could have a late night with her parents. We love that kid.

We're leaving to Florida in a week, and I'm slightly terrified to travel with a 10 month old. I'm excited to get away and have a vacation (we're going to Chases uncles wedding on the beach), fingers
crossed that Lillie will keep being the champ she is.

Our Edie Sweetie is getting so big! She loves to eat, when she finishes her food, she goes around the table and finishes everyone else...
