Three years ago today we closed on our very first house. We were also preparing for the arrival of our second son, who we didn’t realize would be coming exactly a month and a day later!
Two years ago we were pregnant again, and on the verge of finding out that we were about to have our third boy! We were also preparing to celebrate Sammy’s 1st birthday, in which we did a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme.
One year ago we were preparing to celebrate the second birthday of Sammy with a hedgehog theme. We were also considering the possibility of adding to the family one last time…
So here we are. We’ve lived in this house for 3 years now, which is a good half of our married life. We have also doubled the number of kids we have from almost 2 to almost 4. We have painted 9 rooms in this house, we have added shelves, a plant ledge, network wiring, in-wall speaker wiring, and still have plans for more improvements, including possibly a play/storage room off our family room utilizing dead space under the staircase (but that’s something you’d have to ask Andrew about!).
I definitely never expected that we’d be where we are now when we moved into this house, but it has proven to be a great home for three little active boys and I’m sure we’ll continue to feel that way as we add our fourth little man to the family, along with maybe a puppy in 6-12 months from now 😉
