Show and Tell Tuesday! House Tour 2016

Happy Tuesday Everyone! Today I am linking up with Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday!


Today it is House Tour! I have always loved these posts, but have never participated in one because of the fact that we were in a two bedroom apartment, which was tiny for our family of four. This past April we bought our home and moved in and three months later we are finally here at this post and I am so excited to join along and invite you all into our home! It is still a work in progress and none of the walls have been re-painted but I am loving all the grey tones for now, it keeps the home neutral and cool until I feel like spicing things up!

Come on in! 
We are still decorated from Fourth of July, but here is the front entrance. 

When you walk into our home this is the first thing you see. There is a hallway to the left of the staircase, and to the right is the dining room.

This is our formal dining room! I need to do an updated tour of this room but for now I blogged about this a few weeks back right after we moved in, because this was our first room that we completed! You can check that post our here. We have added more to this room and now it is much more homey and inviting

From the dining room you can see into the kitchen area. 

From the dining room door, this is the view of the kitchen! It is a beautiful kitchen and I absolutely love having more room to cook, and just enjoy company. 

This is the view from the kitchen! We have a very open floor plan, that way I can be in the kitchen and see the kids playing and not have to worry about anyone being out of my sight. Riley is in his walker because if I don't have him in my arms and he is not contained, then he is going straight to the stairs and climbing them. 

This is our living room! 

Our second dining area, which is where we eat our meals during the day and night

And another view of the kitchen. I am still looking for bar stools so for now the bar area is just a catch all for things. 
Off of the living room is my office, which I work in to blog, and do other things like keep up with bills and maintaining the day to day tasks of running the house. We also have a downstairs bathroom, which is next to the office. 


This hallway leads to the living room, so it is open to both the dining room and the living room. 
Now let's head upstairs
This is the upstairs. We have a baby gate because Charlotte is learning to open doors, so she might try and come downstairs during the nighttime when everyone is asleep. 


To the right of the stairs is the master bedroom

Our master bathroom

and my favorite parts of the house, my bathtub

and my closet


Then we have Riley's room next. 

Followed by Charlotte's room

To the right of Charlotte's room is the kids' bathroom, the girls/guest bedroom, the laundry room and an additional closet full of random stuff and sheets. 

The opening serves as a playroom as well, and the kiddos love to run around upstairs playing with this kitchen that Charlotte got for her 2nd birthday! The kitchen is also used to block the opening because both kiddos like to stand up against it and either throw things through and hit people downstairs or put arms, legs, feet, and toes through the holes. Momma had a heart attack and blocked that before anyone could get hurt! 

So that is our home! We love it and even though we have not painted, or have all the pictures up we are loving having room to grow and play and make our own. We are very blessed to have what we do and are  very thankful!

Thanks for coming along through our home! I will be doing more updated and more in depth room tours as we finish them and get them all pretty but I love our house the way it is so far! 

Join us next time! 


Thanks for stopping by and have a Great day!
XOXO

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all! It's been a wonderful family weekend! Unfortunately our Memorial Day ended early, since Scott is now headed to work. He has to be in Miami, 7 am tomorrow! Yuck. Luckily Monday is almost over and we only have to make it until Friday until we see him again! Trying to stay positive and look at it as a good thing, not a bad. It is hard to see him leave, but I know he has to go to work. Charlotte was sad but luckily nap time was soon after he left so she transitioned into sleep fine. She will be upset when she gets up in a few but lots of cuddles, cartoons and playing until bed time will keep her preoccupied. We are headed to the beach this weekend, and then staying down there for the week while Scott works, but we will all be together and Mommy and Charlotte will be looking at houses while Daddy works so we will stay occupied with that and lots of pool time! Cannot wait until this week is over. May is almost over, then June is here! Cannot believe that! ...

Show and Tell Tuesday: School Photos

Happy Tuesday! Today I am joining Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday's and today we are showing Worst School Pictures! I have a combination of good and bad school pictures just to mix it up a little bit!  Little baby Cat right before Pre-K!  Back in 2005, I was in middle school and going through a short hair and converse phase where I wore a lot of black and tried to fit in with a certain group of people! I was such a goof And Throwing it back to 2004! Aren't I just cute?!  Senior Year of High School  Senior Year pictures! I had ridiculously long hair that didn't like to cooperate for pictures! Then I chopped all of my hair off before going off to college Kept it short second year of college And finally grew it out and even colored it, I was in a rebellious stage it seemed! Those are my worst and best school pictures! I don't have too many pictures from my school days just because everything was thrown away when I lef...

Life Lately!

Happy Monday! Its a little life lately post to catch up on our past week! I started back to school for my Masters, Scott started his senior year of undergrad and life has gone crazy!  This little is working on sitting up, and finding all of his toys that he didn't know he had until he became mobile. He isn't crawling but he is really good at rolling himself around the place!  With sister in school all day these two are becoming best friends! I'll catch Skyler pulling R's hair, but I will also catch them laughing and playing and reading together! It's the sweetest little bond!  He enjoyed rolling himself underneath his crib a lot, all while I was sitting in the room with him! He loves to explore, even when it means momma has to rescue him from under the bed :P Afternoon cartons, goldfish and playing with toys We have been reading lots of books lately, we are going to the library this week to get some books but Ri has enjoyed reading wha...
