Bedroom Bandit

on Wednesday, August 31, 2005

Now that Austin and Breanna have separate rooms, we found out who was responsible for having a messy room in Texas. Breanna is the Bedroom Bandit. She loves to get everything out and put nothing away. Of course, now that we have our own yard and Austin has friends across the street, he spends very little time in his room anyway. So maybe thats why his room stays clean. But Breanna is going to learn that whatever toys Mommy steps on in the middle of the night, will end up in the trash in the morning.

Living In Florida

Getting all settled in and getting our routines down. It's nice to have our own house and yard. It is a duplex but we never even see or hear our neighbors joined with us. We have a 4 bedroom so that means every kid has their own room. We have a "Florida Sun Room", which is basically a huge screened in patio. Screened in to keep the HUGE mosquitoes out. Matt gets really excited about mowing the lawn. Dont let me take that excitement away! He can keep doing it! Im trying to figure out what to do about the garden. I need something that will look nice most of the year if not all year. Matt's ship is going to dry dock this month for about 3 months. So it will take him 30 mins to get to work instead of 2 mins. We are close enough to the beach that we could ride our bikes out there. Austin's school is a 5 minute walk away. And all of the neighbors around us have kids our kids' ages. Most of the neighbors seem pretty nice. We still are trying to find our way around here. But so far we are enjoying it here.
