So....

I know it has been forever since I got on this blog and updated....my bad! We have been running around for the last little while trying to get all of our stuff taken care of. On August 19th, Kaylen and I became first time homeowners! YAY!! We had been looking since April at houses and changed our criteria so many different times. We decided on a brand new house in May and 2 weeks before closing, Kaylen and I both felt the "urge" to back out of that house. It was a long drawn out ordeal but we were able get out from under it. We then found another house and the bank decided to give it to someone else. With all of that stress, we opted to stop looking at actual homes and to start looking at townhomes.

We were able to remain in Virginia Beach [about 20 minutes from our old place] but get closer to Kaylen's work and his brother Kyle's work as well [Kyle now lives with us]. So we are still close to our friends and close to the guys work...a win win situation! The house is 2137 sq ft, 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom, 1 car garage, formal diningroom, back yard w/storage. It was built in 1974 and needs some upgrading, but the overall is in excellent condition and we are excited to get the tax credit back so that I can get my new kitchen! I promise I will get some pix up soon, but I have been the only one for the most part unpacking and well...let's just say... we're not all done yet. So be patient with me and I will keep everyone updated on the remodel and all that good stuff!



Another new thing....NOAH IS POTTY TRAINED!!! For those of you that have met "little" Noah, you know that he is a VERY strong willed child and will not do anything if it does not benefit him or make him happy... so at almost 3 years old, he now says "I go pee my weenie...." and uses the restroom! YAY!! no more diapers!!! Happy day! He still does poo's in his underware though.... but we're getting there!
