My new Chandelier!














Our New Chandelier! I have been waiting to update that old chandelier since we bought the house. But the only one we could find under 50 wasn't one I liked. And for over a hundred bucks we could do greater renovations so its just been pushed back. Then yesterday we went to Home Depot and they had a big light clearance and we got this 140 dollar chandelier for 30 bucks! I was so exciting! It looks great! And Jonathan got a dimmer switch so thats lots of fun as well. our big project we're doing right now is the bathroom. I should probably take a picture of it - most of the walls are torn down and the tub is filled with drywall. We hit a bit of a snag - termites. we new they were there, but i guess we kinda hoped they wouldn't be. So Jonathan was a lisenced pest control tech and has done termites before so he's going to take care of it. Anyway, we're saving up and buying things as they come on sale. We got a sweet vanity 2 months ago and now there is a big tile sale. It will take a while to buy everything and to tear up and repair the walls and floors ect.
Isaac is so halarious. Here's a few things he's said:
We were having a thunderstorm
P: Look Isaac - Lightning!
I: McQueen!
I was trying to change his diaper
P: Isaac Diaperdoo time!
I: Its Alli's turn
We're driving and there are tons of birds on the telephone wires
I: Birds come down!
I gave him a saltine cracker and asked him to give it to Allie
P: Give this to Allie Please
I: Yummy cookie Allie! ( good thing she doesn't know what that means or that would have been a sore disappointment)

Yesterday we went shopping at Home Depot and I asked Isaac to help me keep Allie with us. She ran all around with Isaac 2 feet in front or behind her yelling "Allie come Back! Allie! Allie come back!" Soooooo funny to watch.
Allie is in that stage where she wants to do everything but can't. She did finally figured out how to buckle her high chair which i am so happy about because she was getting very frustrated. She is figuring out how to put shapes in the shape holes and draw with the magnadoodle. Dispite all the frustrated screams - we are happy for her.
I got a steam mop! I love it! After 3 months of being to sick to clean and all of us eating in the living room my laminate floors got very very dirty. So my friend let me borrow her steam mop and I was instantly addicted. So I got one! I never should have lived without it! Its like having carpet and not having a vacuum! Our whole house is laminate - even the bedrooms. Its so easy and gets the floors super clean! I can use it on rugs and tile as well! I got the one that is 40 bucks at Aldi's and i would recomend it.
