Changes changes...

I guess when we decided to get new furniture we decided to change the whole room... so for Adam's birthday I bought him a flat panal LCD tv; needless to say he was pretty excited since he never saw it coming.He thought he was getting a watch! It's a 37" HP, the picture is so nice (you can kinda tell in the picture above, Jackson was watching cartoons.) I'm such a good wife aren't I?!?!
Then, once we got the new tv, in preparation for our furniture that was on the way, Adam redid our mantel. If you don't remember what it was before... it was so ugly! It was a really dark piece of cedar wood unsanded and unfinished.I don't know what the builder was thinking when he had that put in originally but it was an eyesore!So my handy husband built us a new pretty one! It looks so much better. I also painted my accent wall behind the loveseat,if you look in the pictures of the furniture.It had a perfectly good coat of a darker brown paint on it, but I felt like the room needed a splash of color.So I repainted it.(call me Sarah!!!) But I'm glad I did because our livingroom is kinda dark, so it definatly brightened things up. Besides we were changing everything else in the room; why not? Anyway with all this new stuff I'm actually starting the like my livingroom!

Finally!!!

Our furniture is finally here! We ordered it almost a month ago and it finally came last Tuesday. It was out of stock at the warehouse when we went and picked it out in the showroom,so they told us the first availability would be Sept. 25th so we figured that would be fine,what the heck we've waited 2 years what's another month right? holy cow! it was the longest month ever, but long awaited it was here just in time for Grey's Anatomy season premiere! Perfect timing.

Such cute boys

This was just a sweet shot of them looking at each other... Maddox is getting so big, I can;t believe he is almost 3 months already!

Some recent pics-

Well since it has been a month since I last updated I thought I'd add the most recent pictures... the picture on the left is of Jackson's knee. This was a couple of weeks ago, he tripped and fell running into MaryEllen's house one morning and got his very first scraped up knee! I took pictures because if you we're around the first two days he had it you would have thought he broke his entire leg! All he did was walk around saying "oww boo boo" for 48 hours.Evidently it was a pretty big deal.

Here he has just finished "shaving." That is what the remains are on his face, he was pretty proud to do it just like dad.

Jackson's Birthday

Today was Jackson's birthday! He is 2 years old!!! He began his special day by eating 2 cupcakes for breakfast and blowing out his candles; it took him a few tries but he did it all by himself. Then he opened a few of his presents from me, Adam and Maddox. He is really into Thomas the Tank trains so we got him a train table to play with all of his trains on! But now I am wondering why because the thing is huge! (As if we didn't have enough toys already!) Oh well, as long as he likes it.

Blowing out his birthday candles...
