We’re in!

Posted by: Melissa W on: March 29, 2007

Well, we’re here, as is most of our stuff. Some remains at the old house but we’ll get all of that out this weekend.
And our new neighborhood is doing an Easter Egg hunt for the kids this Saturday! Very cool…our neighbor across the street (who I really like…and she has 2 little girls [...]

Bye for now, but back soon!

I’m taking the computer over there sometime today and we won’t have internet until sometime Tuesday. Try not to miss me too much, OK?
(No phone until then, either, but I’ll have my cell!)

Not exactly what I had in mind, but still cute!

I said I’d try and get one of them together, but I was thinking something of them playing!  Still, it’s pretty sweet and much easier to capture them like this.  They’re both in my bed napping right now and I couldn’t resist this shot.  All together now…awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Mommies can do anything daddies can!

Yes folks, that was today’s lesson for my boys. I put together my awesome office furniture from that retail mecca named Target. I did 99% of it by myself…the exception being something with the shelves. I hadn’t lined one side up properly and couldn’t tighten the thingy that was supposed to hold [...]

Halfway there…

Posted by: Melissa W on: March 18, 2007

We’ve moved almost half of our stuff now!
I cried packing up C’s tiny newborn clothes today.   I can’t believe he’s gotten so big.
I am completely and totally exhausted…off to bed, and more cleaning/packing/moving/organizing tomorrow.

Scratch that last post…

We’re not done painting.  (I say “we” like I’ve been actually painting.   Not so much!)   BUT, it’s just one small room (master bath) that needs to be finished, so not too bad. We’re moving stuff today and tomorrow. D just called and almost has the storage units emptied out. WOW! [...]

Painting finished!

Posted by: Melissa W on: March 16, 2007

We’re done painting.  Looks like next steps are to put up window treatments, clean the floors, bathrooms, get the kitchen cabinets lined and the rest of the kitchen cleaned well, and then pack and move!
We have a moving truck this weekend…we’re attempting to empty the storage units and clean some stuff out of our current [...]

Paint, window treatments, putting stuff together…

Posted by: Melissa W on: March 13, 2007

We’re slowly getting there.  We’ve been eating dinner at the new house and working as much as possible after D gets home from work.  He finished painting J’s room last night.  Finishing C’s tonight and probably starting on ours.  I have to go get more orange paint for C’s room and new blinds for the [...]

More good news and house progress!

Posted by: Melissa W on: March 11, 2007

Well, not only is he getting this training, but he got a raise.  A small one, but better than a cost of living raise so we’re pretty excited.  It will help us immensely!  I’m kicking around the idea of putting C in a mom’s morning out program at the church where J has preschool…just one [...]

Yeah, I changed it again. And good career stuff for D!

Posted by: Melissa W on: March 9, 2007

Obviously I’m still trying to find something I like. And am still CSS stupid so can’t make my own.
D completes his first of 4 weeks of training for his Six Sigma Black Belt today. I am so excited for him…this is something he’s been wanting to do for a long time and despite [...]


W Family Players

D is the dad, the husband, and the breadwinner. All around nice guy and good at pretty much everything he does. It's disgusting, really. But makes him worth keeping around.

M is the mom, the wife, and the hopeless housekeeper. At least the kids' heads haven't fallen off yet. Beyond that, she sucks at the "stay at home" thing. Oh, and she's the blogger.

J is the big boy. Born October 11 2002, he is in kindergarten and loves it. Now 6 years old, and too smart for his own good. Talks a lot but extremely entertaining.

C is the little boy. Born June 26, 2006, he went through a lot in his first year but is doing just fine now. The only blond in the family, so his paternity is routinely questioned by rude strangers.

V is our baby girl. She is brand new and arrived in January 2009. So far everything is going well. We're thrilled to have added the final piece to our family puzzle. And yes, she WILL be the final piece!
