How to Make Cute Turkey Cupcake Toppers
2 years ago
Ok, so here are the pictures of the new place that I have been promising. Sorry if this is a ton of pictures for one post!
The Living Room, the rod is up but the curtains are not hung
The Kitchen
Dining area
The baby's room which is MUCH bigger than his room at the last house. We're still waiting on some wall art, the valance, and the rocking chair to complete the room
Another view
The rocking chair will go in this corner
A nice huge closet
Bathroom #1. Don't mind the cat food.
Bathroom #2 which is in the spare bedroom/office
The entry way to the spare bedroom/office. The bathroom would be right here on your right
The room, again MUCH bigger than the bedroom/office at the old place
Another shot
This room also has the worlds LARGEST closet. If you'll notice on the right we are storing our washer/dryer that we bought and no longer need. We still have space to spare in there.
Our room
The other side of our room. The door on the right is the closet, the one on the left is the bathroom
Some of the bathroom
Somehow we ended up with the smallest closet in the place!
Well, my parents just left a little while ago to head home to MI so I am finally getting some time to sit down and post. We really had a great weekend! They got here Wednesday evening and we got some dinner and just hung out. Thursday, we got up and started the turkey and then decided to head to the beach while we waited for it to cook. It was really nice here that day, about 70 and really sunny. We were surprised by how many people were on the beach!

They love each other
After our trip to the beach we came home and my mom and I finished our cooking. We had a huge spread for just the four of us, and are still eating leftovers. Some friends came over later that night for pie and desert and again, we had a great time.
Joe set the table and was quite proud of himself!

Friday we had another full day. My dad helped Joe and I (ok, mostly Joe) paint the baby's room...again! It was a bummer to do it after having done it in the old house but oh well. It's done and looks great. Joe, and dad did a lot of "guy projects" this weekend, which I think they both like. Today, they put the crib together again, and moved all the furniture in place, hung some curtain rods in the living room, and some other random things that needed to be done. There were a lot of trips to Home Depot, but I think they both had a great time. Mom and I just kind of hung out with the dog and did our thing. My mom loves Bruiser and was really happy to get to hang with him. However, he had one too many table scraps this weekend and spent a good portion of yesterday throwing up all over the house...not fun! He's on the mend and now that my parents are gone he keeps walking around looking for grandma. It's good to know that they'll be back in just a few weeks for Christmas. We love living here but it's time like this that we wish is just wasn't soooo far away! We hope everyone had a great weekend like we did.

We are all moved in! We have only 2 boxes left and they aren't all that important. We have pictures hung, closets and drawers organized and beds made. We will hopefully get some time to post pictures tomorrow.
My parents left this afternoon to head here for Thanksgiving which we are really excited about. Their plan was to drive until 10 or so tonight and then stop and spend the night somewhere. This would have put them in around 6 tomorrow night. However I talked to my mom around 9:30pm tonight and she thinks now that he has her locked in a moving vehicle that my dad is planning on driving straight through, which will put them in first thing tomorrow morning. We are really excited to have company and for people to see where we are at these days. I hope to post some pictures tomorrow, but if I don't get to it have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

So, I posted about the NKOTB concert awhile back and told you all that I had no pictures because my camera got confiscated for being "too professional" at the concert. Well, I stole some from my friend who was there with me and thought they were post-worth. Have a mentioned what a great concert it was?
This was how they entered the stage, the rose up on this platform
And this is where the 8 months pregnant lady went nuts and started screaming like a 12 year old...
Joe singing a little solo stuff.
This is when they were on the small stage 4 or 5 rows behind us
Dancing girl on a piano. She was actually really good.
Notice the original Smiley Face jacket on Joe...
The end
Preparing us to be parents or just bad animals...you decide?

So, in the days leading up to our move our animals freaked out on us. Now, many of you know I have one cat who has always had issues using the littler box when she's upset, hence her name being Pissy. However, this time it was the other cat, Grey. So she was all freaked out and upset by the packing and moving that she left us a nice wet present on our bed the night before we moved. So, we had to clean that up (I am the MASTER at removing cat pee and most importantly the smell of cat pee), and sleep in the other bedroom. Annoying to say the least. Then the next day the move started and we had to be careful what we left laying on the floor or she would pee on it. Again, annoying. The Bruiser the fully potty trained puppy took a nice poo on the floor the second he walked into the new place. Getting more annoying by the minute. Things seemed to calm down until our second night here. We were asleep and I woke up to the dog making the noise he makes right before he throws up. Mind you he's sleeping on our bed. Right between us. The noise stops and I say:
"Joe, did Bruiser Just throw up?"
He replys "No."
and then 10 seconds later Joe says "Sick! I just put my foot in it!"
So, needless to say we were up and doing laundry at 2am. However, now that things have settled down all pet behavior is back to normal, thank goodness!
Well, we are officially all moved to the new place, which is kind of bittersweet for me. I loved the house that we were in and probably got way to attached to it. The move itself was a long yucky process. It's been really muggy here which sure didn't help. Poor Joe really got stuck with the brunt of the work seeing as how I'm 8+ months pregnant and not a lot of help! We have some great friends who helped a ton though. So, all of our stuff is in the new place and now we just have the huge task of getting it all unpacked and put away. I will probably take on most of this as I'm home all day and this is work that for the most part I can do. The fun part is we have just over a week to get it done as my parents are coming next week for Thanksgiving! It gives us something to work for though and then once they get here we have a few home improvement type projects that they can help with. I will post pictures as soon as things are looking more presentable!

One of the things that we were really excited to get at the baby shower was the mattress for the crib, we set it up right away and shortly after this is what we found!
I've been home almost a week now and I'm just getting some time to update. Joe had Monday and Tuesday off so we took the long weekend to get some stuff done and just hang out.
My trip to Michigan was good, but quick. I was kind of ok with this because I found myself missing South Carolina much more than I expected. I think this was for a few reasons, first being that this is where Joe and the dog were! and second being that it's warm here! I'm learning that I'm a much happier person when the sun is shinning and I can wear flip flops. I've included some pictures of the baby shower that was thrown for me while I was home by Jessica, Sarah, and Phyllis. It was a good time, and a great way to see a lot of people!
I got to spend a day in Mt. Pleasant while I was home visiting with people which was really nice. I got to catch up with some people that I hadn't seen in ages which was really nice. Joe and I both were blown away at how generous people were with gifts for the baby, so THANK YOU everyone! I had so much stuff to bring home with me! My suitcase weighed in at 49.9lbs! So I cut it really close! The whole reason that this trip happened was because of the New Kids On the Block concert, and it sure didn't disappoint! It was actually a really great concert! It far exceeded my expectations, but the only downside is that I don't have any pictures! My camera got confiscated by the New Kids on the Block "official" security because it was "too professional" of a camera. BOOO!
We are now gearing up to move which kinda stinks but we're ready for sure to plant out feet in one solid place for a year. After going around and around and looking at tons of houses we've decided to take a really nice apartment for the year. It's a 1600 sq foot apartment so it's pretty huge, and really nice. We just decided that this was the best option for us at this point. The one thing that has me down about it is that we've already painted the babies room here and we don't think we can paint there. It seems like a silly thing but for some reason really has me all sad!
