-We bought a house!! We were meant to buy this house. Another offer was already accepted with conditions by the time we even looked at the house and our realtor told us there was no point in making an offer. Michael and I decided that we wanted to do everything possible, so that if we didn't get the house we could at least say we did our best. We made an offer the next morning and it was a looooong two weeks of slow decision making on the seller and potential buyers behalf. But we finally found out we got the house and the timing of it couldn't have been better. We moved in 3 weeks before Noah was born.
-We welcomed baby boy #2! Noah was born April 25. He is such a sweet boy, and we sure love having him in our family.
-We started renos on our home after Noah was 2 weeks old. Note to self: don't do that ever again. We did all the renos ourselves so it was hard to divide our time between putting in hardwood floors, painting, and the other small tasks, along with caring for a newborn AND a two year old. But we did it! I don't even think Michael and I got into a big fight about reno's once... which is something I have always heard is hard on a marriage. We LOVE the changes we have made so far. We have a lot more we want to do in the future but it's so awesome to enjoy the changes.
Renos 2014 will hopefully include the completion of insulating the garage and getting that all organized with shelving, completing the paint, baseboards, and trim in the basement, and recarpeting the upstairs bedrooms. Maybe if we are lucky we will reno the upstairs bathroom or do the salon in the basement? We will see.
-We camped lots in the summer. 4 times is a lot with a newborn and a 2 year old right? I think so anyways. We had so much fun camping with friends and family, and hopefully in 2014 we can do much more camping.
It was a great year and hopefully 2014 can be another good one for our little family.
