A few projects for our new home

On painting day Sam really wanted to help with the paint. Since we know what he is capable of, we didn't really want him to show us all of his artistic abilities yet, so he just got a dry roller, which he was quite content with!
We had lots of fun with the taping, oh wait, no, that wasn't fun at all. Just a necessary evil.
After a while Sam started getting into more things than dry rollers so we had to put him in the pack-n-play. He amazed us by tolerating it for most of the day. Poor kid. We put it by the window so he could at least see outside and look at the 'pones' or as we know them, ponies.
When we closed on the house, we never had a chance to see the lawn due to the snow. The day after signing our lives away... the snow melted. It wasn't until then that we realized how bad the lawn really was. Luckily Jason knows a few things about yardwork... cuz it's gonna take a lot of it!
Sam really likes to help his daddy, especially when it means being outside!

We closed on the house on Feb. 28th and on Mar. 1st we started with painting most of the main areas of the house and the master bedroom. That took a lot longer than we thought! We made the move a week later on Mar. 8th. We had lots of family and friends to help us, for which we were extremely grateful. I don't know how all our stuff fit into our apartment, but it definitely filled the house a lot more than I expected! Looking back, I'm surprised our apartment floor didn't collapse from too much stuff! We have pretty much everything (that is important anyway) unpacked and put away, so it's really starting to feel more and more like home.
