What Have We Been Up To??

Sorry we have been MIA, our next big project was in full effect this weekend which meant our whole house being moved around and…no computer!  We decided to tear the carpet out of our living room, dining room, and hallways and replace it with wood floors.  This ended up taking all weekend and into the week, but we are getting there!  Alan has been working SO hard, we really appreciate him and everything he does.  Of course Ryder had to help:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And even Mommy had to pitch in on the last row…

So we’ve been trying to keep busy while the house was being worked in, which was fun because we got to spend time with Jamie & Elijah:

And Me & Ryder had to get pretty creative finding things to do.  We had breakfast and dinner parties on his bedroom floor, spent lots of time in the big boy bed, and he found a new favorite thing that he insists on carrying around with him:

Maisy’s pillow!  What a sweet big brother he’s going to be.  He would lay it on my stomach and say “here Maisy, you can lay on your pillow…..Ryder’s turn to lay on Maisy’s pillow!”  Her turns were very short and his were very long, but that’s okay! 

So that’s what we’ve been up to.  It has been a little crazy having everything turned upside down, but I’m SO happy with the finished product that it will all be worth it in the end.  So far we just have the living room back together:

(the only way we can keep the dogs out of our chairs is to pile stuff in them before we go to bed!)

Next project…Maisy’s room!!!  Yay :)
