Changes

The Nightingale household has taken on a few changes - hence the lack of post updates.

Emily and Michael have decided to move back to the cities and be by our parents.  Turns out they needed a place to stay during the transition.  So in the matter of a few days we doubled the amount of humans and tripled the amount of dogs in our home.  It's very barky in here!

I've discovered a new addiction - How I Met Your Mother on Netflix.  I always told myself I would love this show, but wanted a way to watch it from the beginning.  It's like the Netflix Gods heard me and POOF!  New entertainment for Kellie!

After moving Emily and Michael on Saturday, I thought for SURE Mark would just want to hang out on Sunday.  Turns out, he's gotten bit by the "nesting bug" too and really wanted to do a project.  So off to Menard's we were - again.  We ended up putting a few extra storage shelves in our utility room for extra storage, (something this house lacks) and redid the closet in the nursery.  Before the inside of the closet looked like this:

 The shelves that were inside only reached about halfway across.  This room is pretty small and seemed like such a waste of space.  We just purchased longer and deeper shelves and then repositioned them so the bottom two shelves will be able  to have hanger rods underneath doubling the amount of clothes we will be able to hang inside.

We also put a 6 hole cubby system on the bottom.  Perfect for toys, books, and anything else the kiddo might want to access easily. 

After pictures will be up sometime this week - of course it will be before the paint job, but you'll get the idea.  Mark has one more project he will be working on this even so I haven't busted out the camera yet ;)

There's also something else that might be changing - a HUGE MIGHT!  It would potentially make our life very busy for the next few months, but we'll see!

So for now, I"ll finish my caffeine free Diet Coke and watch TV while - GASP - all THREE dogs are currently napping :)
