Moved.

Turns out, moving is a little stressful ;)
Ryan survived the move with bubble wrap and one too many episodes of Daniel Tiger.


We finally said goodbye to the cute little townhome that we spent 3.5 years in.
The little place that got us through law school and the 'oh so exciting' sleepless nights of becoming first time parents.
Lots of memories made and it will always have a place in my heart!

That being said we were so ready to call a place "our OWN!"
Last Thursday we signed the papers and made it officially ours.
Pretty cool feeling.


A few of the first things moved into our house were Ryan's teepee and our fake dog Spot.
Go figure.
Ry had all he needed to be happy.


One of our favorite parts about this home is that ^^ THIS ^^ is literally 50 steps away from our front door.


Ryan is in heaven overload.
Talk about park every day, all day.


Ry has been my little CLEANER helper these last couple days.
With all the movers, and new furniture, there has been SO MUCH dust.
And let me tell you, dark floors show it all :) HA I tell my husband they are worth it!
We clean every day and Ryan has somehow been pretty happy about it.


Between the park and the counter top munching, Ryan's making himself right at home :)


And so are we.
We have only been here three nights and I'm loving waking up to this view.

Boxes are still all over but we are in heaven over here.
Nothing like your first home.

  7. Oh goodness, so much fun! We moved into our first house almost 2 years ago. I vividly remember the excitement!!! What I looked forward to most was cooking in my kitchen. Now that I've done it a gazillion times the newness and excitement wore off a bit.. but the memories are wonderful! :) lol. Enjoy your new home. Congrats!
