Home Sweet Home

We bought a house! I never thought I'd say the words but after a year and a half of looking, we finally made a decision. Jeff's work is moving to Seattle by the end of next years so we wanted to find a spot that was a little more centrally located. It's still in the south end but it has easy access to 167 and I-5. It's located in Edgewood in a development that's up and coming so now we have to wait for it to be built! The permit process should be complete by the first part of January and then they will start the building process which takes about 100 days...so we're looking at mid-to-end April for a move-in date.

Finley is super active now and she's getting into everything so next weekend Jeff and I are going to take the dinning room table and bar chairs down to storage. In the empty space we're going to make a play room of sorts for Finley to hang out in. As of now, every time she ventures off her blanket I have to pick her up and turn her around because she starts to get into everything around her. Hopefully when we move this furniture out; she'll have some room to roam. We've definitely outgrown our space and I'm really looking forward to our new home.

I know every parent probably thinks the same but Fin is the funniest little girl around (I think I know where she gets it too!) j/k...But seriously, she has such a little personality. We play horsey rides and then I sit her on the carpet next to me and she continues to bounce until I do it again. When her 'puffs' are gone she screams at the top of her lungs (not a cry but a yell) to let me know she needs some more. The last two mornings, Jeff and I have woken to her yelling at us. And, finally she knows how to motorboat which is really funy because once she starts she doesn't stop.

These are seriously THE best moments of my life. I love just watching her explore and react to every situation. She's such a ham and loves attention.
