And we stopped at my aunt's house and picked up the dining room chairs. I can't wait to find some fabric and get going on that project!!
On a side note, this kid rocks my world!

Progress
So, here we are again. I know I said we'd discuss the stair project next, but I wasn't planning on posting so soon again. My rug arrived today, yay!

The First Week
What I wrote last week and never posted:
We've owned the house for a little over a week now. Vain stayed at the house because he was so excited to finally have a home of our own, but I kept Ryter at my parent's house until I could get his room ready to go. My mom and I painted on Sunday and then Monday through Wednesday I unpacked most things and put them in the appropriate room. It was and still is a mess! On Friday was our first night in the house as a family. Vain's parent's were here too for the weekend to help us out. Ryter didn't sleep so that means I didn't sleep. He's still having a problem going down for every nap and at bed time, but I think it'll get better. I think he really likes the house though. Since we don't really have any furniture it's just a whole bunch of space to run around.
Update: I've already rearranged the living room with all of the mismatched furniture. I ordered a soft gray rug that will arrive Friday and now I'm looking for all of the small pieces to go along with it. There are so many things that need to be done, but I think we'll get there. The crown molding has to be caulked before I can paint...when the heck will I have time to do that? Maybe during Ryter's nap today I'll start.
Here's the rug I ordered.
We got a new dining room table so now we can appropriately seat more than two people. Here's our new table:
I'm hopefully getting some hand me down chairs that I plan to paint white to give an electic look like this picture:
Ryter is up for the day now, so this time I will post instead of save. Next time we'll be discussing the stair project. Here's a sneak peak:
