So maybe I promised to put up pictures and then didnt... I finally found my camera today. :)

So here are a few and I'll put more up this weekend after we paint the bedroom. (Check out facebook for complete photo albums, including some from 4th o' July and tailgaiting...)

Parsley enjoys the fireplace.

Our happy little family

Don't worry, the empty frames that everyone hates will be replaced soon...

The kids enjoy watching the neighbors.

Updates

OKAY... I promise to upload photos this weekend of our new house.





We closed on December 20th and are loving it. As with most new houses, there are a few minor things that need to be fixed here and there, but overall it's been absolutely awesome.





Capone loves his new house. I think it helps that we moved around Christmas, so lost of catnip and toys came along with his new house. (Aunt Janna gave him a vile of catnip... it looks a bit suspicious...)





Parsley... isn't quite sure about the house. She's doing great as far as no accidents and no chewing up furniture or anything. However, her separation anxiety is in overdrive lately. We got a "Doggie Glad Plug-In" that gives off Dog Appeasing Pheromones (DAP) that is supposed to calm her down...yyyyeah. We'll see about that. It's been a week. So far she has chewed through two kennels in less than a month. We've been having her sleep in her kennel at night so she can get used to it, but she hasn't slept more than a couple hours a day for the past four days. I'm hoping she'll eventually be so exhausted that she'll have to sleep in the kennel. We'll see... right now she's sound asleep on the couch next to me. I open the door to let her out of the kennel, take her outside to potty and she comes back in and passes out on the floor. It's upsetting. But our new vet has been very helpful and is sure we'll figure out the best way to help.





Paul is good. He got a promotion and starts on Monday. He's pretty excited about it. :) He started back up with school this past week. Just a few more years to go!





I'm good. Job is good... this week has been a good week. Went to lunch with my boss today and got a chance to talk about stuff other than work. The past two days have been the kind of days when you've got a ton of stuff to do, but for some reason you have a ton of motivation and you just plow through it. It felt good to get so much stuff done.





Next weekend, I plan on putting up a backsplash. (if we get it in the mail on time...)


This is what we're looking at ordering:

It's pretty cool and pretty easy to install... I'll post pics. :)

A couple people made comments today about my desk-area at work... my wall may or may not be covered in pictures of Joel. Most of the Joel pictures are wallet sized. I have a few big ones of Hunter. My desk is Nadia-themed, with the exception of a framed picture of Joel's feet. (I have Nadia's basketball schedule under my glass desk top, numerous soccer pictures and an uber cute pic of her and Matt holding a dead deer up) So I love my neices and nephews. :)

AND... get this: Only ONE picture of Parsley... crazy, huh?

Okay, more updates Sunday... I need to get pictures of the house.

Updates

Liz is better at keeping this updated. :)

Nothing new...

Job's going good. Paul's good. I'm good. If I could find my camera, I'd add more pictures... I should get on that.

Capone is crazy. crazy. Parsley is calm. It's strange...

I need to do some situps. :)

New stuff:

We bought a house! Woo! We close on December 19th. Pretty sweet. We had a family stop by our house today to take a look to see if they want to rent it. They seemed pretty interested so it makes us feel better about leaving Paul's mom's house.

We set up our mini-Christmas tree today. Capone loves it a little too much. We put on the ornaments and he takes them down one by one. If I can figure out how to post a video, I'll make sure to get it on here. It's pretty cute. :)

New baby... holy cow... way too cute. He's warm and snuggly and beautiful and I love him! I have the best newphews and niece ever. EVER!

Paul is 30 now. We had a party and watched THREE Chuck Norris movies. Yikes. But it was way fun and it was great to see all of our friends again.

I'm trying to find cool decorating ideas. I get way excited.

Capone

Well we got our kitten today!
His name is Capone and he is about 15 weeks old. We're going to say his birthday was on our wedding day because it's about right time-wise.
He's a little crazy and a lot cute.
Parsley seems to be taking it well. She's not Capone's biggest fan and is pouting a lot but things could have gone a lot worse.
Here are some pictures of the new kitty and his pouting big sister.

Monday

Mondays usually suck but I feel like today could be good.

Hopefully I'll be getting a call today with a job offer... hopefully I'll be getting a call either way today. I can't stand not knowing.

I'm going to go look at kittens this afternoon. Parsley seems to have noticed a change around here without Screech so I'm sure she'll be excited to get a baby brother. Hopefully I'll get pictures up soon!

Hallo!

So I am a copy cat. I've decided since Liz has a blog, it must be the cool thing to do. So here I am... blogging.

Neat.

I think the baby is coming on October 23rd. Watch. You'll see. ;)

I might get a kitty this week. :)
