Our new home!

We're very excited to say that we bought a new house! We won't be moving until mid-April, but we had our inspection and everything is ready to go. It has 4 bedrooms, plus a bonus room upstairs, the main level has a formal dining room, living room, family room, and den, and we also have a basement. We wanted to share some pictures. The people that lived there before LOVED wallpaper, so we definitely have some updating to do. We're ready to get in there and put our touches on it. Hope you'll come over soon!

The living room....we're going to do something about that carpet.

Big kitchen with lots of cabinets! It also currently has 3 ovens???

The laundry ROOM (not just a closet in the hallway). Also with a lot of cabinets.

Part of the basement, pool table included.

We think this room will be Wesley's. It has a big closet, and that kid has a lot of clothes.

Could this room be all ready for Baby Drake #2? We'll find out March 18th!

This is the bonus room upstairs. We're thinking it will turn into the playroom at some point.


The master bedroom.

Deck in the back.

One of the things we're most excited about is our big backyard! Hopefully someday it will contain a pool and some playground equipment. For now, we'll have to make friends with the neighbors.

What a big boy!





Today we took Wes to get his first professional haircut. Where are the cute pics of him in the adorable car chair, sitting patiently while the nice lady trims his locks? Yeah, that's because he was terrified of the cape she tried to put on him and refused to sit in the car. So, Eleni got to hold him while the poor lady expertly navigated around his precious ears. The end result was too cute. Wes has also become quite the camera ham, as you can see, and thinks it's hilarious to scream out "CHEESE!"

Happy Valentine's Day!





We went to the Children's Museum to check out the new Lego exhibit. We all had lots of fun!
