I'm sorry it's taken me so long to update...my time is taken up by a sweet 6 week old now. 6 week old...can you believe it!? I'll try and update you on what's been going on with us over the last few weeks. It may take a few posts so check back again.
Friday, Oct. 31st we signed our life away and became 1st time home buyers! I agree with my friend Courtney that I thought it would feel more momentous as I signed the papers, but it really was uneventful. The walk through though was very cold.. 48 degrees to be exact b/c the power company hadn't turned on our electricity yet; it took them until 2 pm to get there, but that's another story.
Friday afternoon we went home and finished packing. Our good friends the Flemings came to help us pack up the truck. We thought we had more help but sadly no one showed so the 4 of us packed the truck until 10 pm. Saturday morning we packed the last minute things and I sent Jeremy on his way as I finished up the cleaning.
I arrived at our new home around 1:30 and some amazing friends had already unpacked the whole truck. Thanks goes out to the Williams, Adams, Langstons, and my parents. The rest of the afternoon and evening was spent unpacking the kitchen and arranging the living room so we could have a place to sit.
The last week and half have been spent unpacking boxes in between feedings and taking care of Owen. The downstairs is done (ex. for pictures on the wall) but we won't talk about the upstairs. :)
We love our new home and are excited about such little things like a dishwasher, a fireplace, etc. I'm still getting adjusted to living in a house and living in Nashville. I miss knowing my neighbors. I miss having Alyson right through the wall and her and her kids knocking on the door every afternoon. I miss Moe's. It's going to take time.

So glad to hear you getting settled in downstairs. One floor at a time is the only way to work through the boxes:o) How's Owen doing?
Your house is adorable. We need a picture tour of the inside. Give Owen a kiss for me :)
I know how it feels to leave friends and a place you love, but I'm sure it will all work out in the long run. I know you will love it! Your house is so cute and I'm looking forward to more pictures of it and Owen :-)
Congratulations! How fun to have a house and a baby - you guys are so grown up now :)!! Can't wait to see how you decorate.
