Settled In...

Well, we are finally getting settled into the new house. Our garage is a complete mess, but I have to be honest by saying that it will probably stay that way, for a LONG long time. I started to take a few pictures, but then my camera started to die, and all of our extra batteries have been used up by Millie's many many little bubble gadgets. So here is what I got:

This is our living room. I once again have to be honest by saying that those candles on the coffee table are never out, I just wanted it to look pretty, ha ha! They probably won't be able to stay out until we're finished having babies, and by then, they'll probably be way out of style!

So when we actually want candles when Millie's around, we just have to hang them up on the wall over our love seat so they're out of her reach! We'll be in a lot of trouble when she grows a few more inches though!!


It's so nice having this spot for our tv and components! No more finger prints, smudges, and baby slobber all over the screen! And Millie can no longer turn off the tv right in the middle of your favorite movie!


This is Millie's special spot in our living room, full of some of her favorite toys. She likes to drag her bean bag all around the room, either so she can sit at the fireplace playing with her animals or cars, or she can pull it over to sit in front of the coffee table with a bowl full of her favorite snacks!


Finally, a place for my piano! It's too bad Millie will hardly ever allow me to actually play it though, ha ha!

This is our kitchen table. Thanks to my sweet sweet hubby for always keeping our new house furnished with fresh flowers!


And now Todd's favorite part of the new house... the grill!!


This is Millie's crib in her brand new bedroom. Speaking of, just a couple weeks ago, she was being WILD so I put her in her crib so she would maybe calm down and stop hurting herself climbing and falling off of all the furniture, and after about 30 seconds, she sounded like she was up to no good. I opened the door to peek in on her, and she was sitting on TOP of the crib rail rocking back and forth, making noises and pretending to ride a horse!


Millie's cute kitchen play set that she got from her Mamaw for Christmas. She loves to pretend she's cooking just like mommy and daddy!


Yep, that's right! I FINALLY hung the picture frames that I painted over a year ago!


Millie's window with the cute wall stickers from her Grandma and Grandpa Avery!


This is Millie's bookshelf. Pretty soon we're going to need another one to have room for all of her books!


Speaking of books, I am LOVING this book that I picked up at Old Navy. It's Not a Box by Antoinette Portis. It really shows how to spark a child's imagination with pretend play. I'm hoping that Millie will really enjoy it in a year or two, and maybe get a few ideas of her own for what she can pretend with just a simple cardboard box.

AND! We just bought a new digital camera on the internet, hopefully it gets here soon! I am so so very excited to take tons of pictures as soon as it gets here. Hopefully Millie will cooperate and be my little guinea pig for lots and lots of pictures!
