Home Sweet Home











Check out my facebook page for more pictures from our new house. Peyton loves it! She keeps asking me to show her where things are, I don't think she is used to so much space! Her favorite things to do are play the computer (uptoten, Star Fall, PBS Kids, and Playhouse Disney), and take a shower in our big walk-in...with the door open, of course! We have gotten a lot accomplished this weekend but still have a long ways to go.

We're back....

I have been having major mommy guilt for not posting on Peyton's blog! Our computer is super slow so it is a huge ordeal to upload pictures, but I just figured, what the heck- I can update without pictures! So here we go....
Today they are predicting a couple of inches of snow in the area. If this does happen, it is definintely going to add to Peyton's false sense of reality that Georgia gets a good solid snowfall on an annual basis. Last year we had over six inches and the county nearly shut down. Little does she know it is not the norm.
We are set to move into our new house next week and I am super excited!!! Although I feel it is loonng overdue, I have to remember that God's timing is perfect and he knows A LOT more than I do about what is best for me- I am just grateful a bigger place was in his plan! Peyton was a little aprehensive about the move at first- I don't think she understood that we would take her stuff there- and afterall, it didn't matter to her that there was no dishwasher, laundry room, and only one bathroom! Maybe I should take a lesson in contentment from her! Yesterday was the most excited I have seen her at the new house. We stopped by to see the carpet that they were putting in and she was running around like crazy, rolling on the carpet, and wanting to play hide and seek. Her favorite places to hide were in the shower and kitchen cabinets! She seems to have forgiven us for painting her bedroom pink and not rainbow and not buying a Spiderman comforter.
Today was a holiday for me (which turned out to be good time given the threat of snow) and so Peyton and I are enjoying a great day together. First thing this morning she listed out the things she wanted to do- play in her room, play some wii, play some computer, play in the snow, and get her toenails painted. I was glad to see that she was as excited about a day off as I was!
Hopefully I'll post some pictures soon- until then, Happy Snow Day!
