we bought a zoo...

er... a house. although, with an 18 month old, 2 cats, fish that keep reproducing and boxes still to unpack, it feels a little like a zoo sometimes. that's right - our first house. four states, seven years and one kid later, we finally took the plunge.

 we moved in a little over a week ago. while there are still lists miles long of things to fix and change, we are fairly settled. jakey had a little trouble adjusting to sleeping in his new room, but loves having a play room and a yard! jeremy loves having a garage and a shed. one of the first things he did was build himself a workbench and install a work light. my kitchen is bigger and i have an office that opens into jakey's play room.  that makes working from home so much easier!

we are looking forward to many weekends of working on the house - painting, redoing the bathrooms and fencing in the yard are tops on the list.
