Show and Tell Tuesday: House Tour 2017

Holy cow its been a while since I have been on here. With school getting out and summer starting and working long days and then traveling a lot the past week its been crazy! What better way to get back into it though by linking up with Andrea for  Show and Tell Tuesday: Home Tour edition! We moved into our home last April so it will be nice to see how everything has changed since then!




Come on in! this is our entrance, We have the stairs to the right 

and a hallway to the left. We also purchased a grandfather clock and it is one of my favorite things we have added to the house!

The room to the right of our entrance is our formal dining room. This was our very first room done and we have hosted birthday parties in here, and my parents even came down for Thanksgiving and sat in here so we are loving entertaining in this room! 

Next is my favorite room in the house, my kitchen

It is large, open and absolutely beautiful! I love it so much

One of the things we needed was an open concept house, so we have the living room, kitchen and dining area open, so I can be cooking dinner or washing dishes and watch the kids playing in the living room. 
 
We purchased a new table to eat at earlier this year, in June, and it was on major sale and I absolutely love it. For the time being the kids sit in the chairs they used at our old table and it works perfectly because they can sit together on the end, but I am already shopping for some end chairs to square it up when they get older

We rearranged our furniture in the living room to make it more cozy and roomy! This layout had to grow on me a bit, I hated it at first but it is perfect now and works for entertaining but also being able to keep an eye on everyone

My office has gotten a bit of a makeover as well. The hubs built me a desk and a shelf for above it so we can put our three monitors up there. I love it so much and it makes being productive all the easier! This room is right off the living room so I can hear the kiddos and look through the door if they need me, so it is perfectly placed!
As we go up the stairs this is the landing. The toys have spilled into the landing but at least they are all picked up and in bins

this is my little reading nook at the top of the landing! It is the perfect little chair that I got for just a dollar at a yard sale! 


The laundry room, has also gotten a makeover with new machines, a hand build stand for them to sit on and a shelving unit to hold things on! 

We also have the guest bedroom/girls bedroom, and a guest bathroom upstairs as well that are next to the laundry room.

Up next, we have the kids room. They now share a bedroom, for some reason they sleep so much better that way! 
And the closet that they share. I just got done with all of their laundry so the closet is full and organized! 

Riley's old room is now a playroom slash room for guests to sleep in, see the new futon we purchased! They have a million toys

and some of the winter clothes spill into this closet that houses toys, and suitcases and anything else kiddos! 
Finally is our master bedroom. We now have a frame for our bed and a few more shelves and bookshelves that were added because the kiddos kept destroying them

Our bathroom

and my vanity is now in the closet on my side so I can pick out my outfits and do my makeup whenever I put makeup on! 

My side of the closet

His side of the closet

Ignore the mess, we keep most of the house clean but with chasing everyone around keeping all of it clean is impossible! I like that it looks more lived in now a year later! 

So there you have it! Our home! 
Still have not decided on paint colors or painted anything but there have been subtle changes since the last house tour I shared. If you missed that you can check it out here

It is so nice to be back on the blog! Thanks for stopping by!

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...
