Home Sweet Home...

I am quickly trying to start a post while chubs is down for a nap... in between my laundry switch overs! I am home from Atlanta after a whirlwind week. Barbie and I had a wonderful time. We stay at a swanky hotel and eat at swanky restaurants and meander through wonderful stores, but we also work. If you consider shopping for the store work. Really it's just the walking that get you.... showroom to showroom sorting through all the pretties wondering what your customer will want to buy for the upcoming season. We stumbled upon several new lines and had some continued success with some oldies but goodies. All in all it was a successful week! But man oh man was I ready to get home to those chubby chubby cheeks!

My dear husband had the house in tip top shape (of course) which makes it that much nicer to come home. Josh's mom and sister also came down for the week to assist and I CAN NOT thank them ENOUGH for everything they did. Not that I didn't have 100% faith in Josh watching Charlie while I was gone, it was just nice to know they were here to keep him company, and I am sure they had a great time getting their Charlie fill! Not only did they help out they packed boxes, did laundry, and spoiled Charlie Boy to the gills. I have just finished cutting off about 50 tags from some darling new outfits they brought and bought for Charlie during their visit! Too Cute! Thank you soooooooo much Nana Dawne and Aunt Monica, come back soon!

Also.... in other HUGE news, our house is UNDER CONTRACT! What a weight has been lifted! A couple who looked twice made us an offer on the 9th of this month and had their inspection last week, we haven't heard anything back so I am assuming it's a go. We close on the 27th of August and we couldn't be happier!

Josh has continued to put in LONG hours at the new house. He and my dad had a hard day yesterday staining the floors. They look great and totally change the look of the whole downstairs. I am so eager to move! Josh finished mudding the ceilings in the guest bedrooms last week and my dad was painting them today! Charlie's room is next, along with a coat of polyurethane to the floors. It is really starting to take shape. The landscapers came and mulched the front yard while I was gone and it makes such a difference.

This week is a quiet one and I couldn't be more pleased. Looking forward to cooking for my boys and nightly wagon rides. This is Charlie's last week of school for the summer! PDO is out for the month of August. Hope to be back with some pics of that growing boy soon!
