Back to School

E went back to school today, and I think he's getting used to riding the bus. He said the ride was good today. The girl he sat next to said they aren't allowed to use any video games (he brought his DS to play). Not sure what they want the kids to do for an hour?!

He made this little stepping stone over Spring Break. I wanted to do one with his handprint, but it ended up being a 3d mold with butterflies on it...lame!

Bill is home now and he and Ethan are playing Mario Kart. E was so excited to have him home :)

Last Day of Spring Break

Today Ethan & I went over to the old house to put out the garbage and pick up a few things. We pass the park on the way to the house, and there was no one there and it was super nice out, so we decided to stop for a bit. If it wasn't so darn windy it would have been awesome out. The darn wind knocked over our grill though, and there are now some pieces that are no longer attached :( I'm hoping Bill can fix it when he gets home tomorrow.

This big cardboard castle is one of the things E "had" to bring home today. He's sleeping in it tonight - that's his alligator sleeping bag sticking out the door LOL We'll see if he lasts the whole night in there.

Ethan

Just some pictures from the past couple of weeks. We had a few nice days over E's Spring Break and went to the park. He of course was in heaven, because he loves to wear shorts.

Here he had stopped playing and started meditating, not sure where he learned that from!

And one of his infamous fall - his tooth is still loose and he's been wiggling it like crazy but I don't think it's going to fall out any time soon since it wasn't ready before he knocked his face on the floor.

I'm Back!!

Well we finally have our internet up and running at the new house. I don't have my router set up yet, so that is a project for later today, hopefully I can figure it out without making the direct connection to the modem not work :P

Here is Mr. Ethan's new "Mario" room. He started out sleeping on the top bunk, but now the past few night he's been on the bottom. He just can't make a decision I guess. I painted the desk & tv stand and we got the posters from the Nintendo club (our prize for owning a billion video games). The bedding Granny got him, and other than that there isn't a ton of Mario stuff out there. Oh, we did find the puzzle at Target half off and we glued it together and got it a frame :) I'm super excited that he has a closet again, and he loves having his own full bath connected to his bedroom.

Here is the kitchen, it's pretty small, but fits our table, so I guess that's all we need :) There isn't a ton of cabinet space, but there is a pantry that you can't see in the pictures. The door is the back door, which leads to our tiny yard where Elvis goes psycho on all the other dogs in the neighborhood.

Living room, and my new furniture that I love. It's sort of a light green. Bill thinks it's blue, but he's wrong. I want to get a oceany beachy picture to hang over the couch, it looks pretty empty in here with just the big white wall. The desk/computer is over in the other corner of the living room, we don't have any other rooms to put it in!

We got new bedroom furniture for ourselves too, but I haven't taken any pictures yet. I want to get a new bedding set, but that will have to wait until later! I'm ready to be done moving, and can't wait to be finished with the old house. Still have to get it cleared out and cleaned out for our "final inspection".
