New year, new baby, new home....

In the midst of having our second baby, we also decided to buy a new home, and sell our old one. I was more than a little emotional at first (postpartum hormones, what?!) about leaving the house that we had put so much hard work into. We brought both of our babies home to that house, we raked millions of leaves, and we renovated so much of it. We knew eventually that we would run out of space there, and when a house in our ideal neighborhood came up (on Craigslist, yes!), our realtor thought we needed to take a look. The space, location, and price were all right, so we decided that the time was now! We couldn't be happier here...it feels like home, and that's what matters the most. We still have projects, which makes this DIYing couple happy, but for now, we're just enjoying making new memories in our new home. Happy New Year!

 

Bar in the living room? This house was made for us!
