Build A House: Check

IT'S FINALLY DONE! We closed on our house on Friday, June 9, after pushing the close date several weeks due to things that needed to be addressed. I'm so excited to finally be in our home. Don't get me wrong, it was nice and very convenient to be at Grandma's, and the little sitting room off the master turned out to be the best thing for a newborn. But after having most of our stuff in boxes for a year and trying to cook on a two-burner electric stove, I was ready to be done with it.

Kennedy was super excited about closing day, as you can tell.


And Kristen came to hold her while Nelson and I signed our bank account away.


It's our's! Doesn't Nelson look thrilled? ;)


Home <3


And just so I always remember what the house was like when we first moved in, here's a fun little tour I did :)


We had several things done before moving in, including sealing the grout and having internet and security installed. After everyone was done, I needed to vacuum so we had clean floors. Kennedy helped (i.e. took a nap in the carrier) and made it a super sweaty job.


But there's nothing as satisfying as this!


Moving day finally came after a week of stressing and packing. The movers had us out of Grandma's house in two hours and in our new home in one hour. My organization skills do come in handy ;)





Cheri surprised us with a welcome sign, too. It's so exciting to finally be done with the building process and able to call this house our "home". I can't wait to start making some memories in it with my family!
