Some of you have asked to see pictures of our house and so here they finally are! It's not everyday a pregnant mother of two feels like taking pictures of what her house USUALLY looks like :) But lucky for you, I snuck in some pictures after cleaning day was coming to a close and the boys were outside with Daddy! I apologize that the quality of the pictures isn't the greatest. I realized once I loaded them on my computer, that I used the wrong setting to take them, but I wasn't about to try it all over again :) So welcome to our Illinois home! If you were here I'd say, put your feet up, make yourself at home and enjoy my Fall favorite...apple crisp! (If I have time!) I described each picture in the captions BELOW each one...enjoy!
Here's what you see right as you enter our front door and turn left...our living room!
Another view of the living room from the doorway leading to the kitchen.
This is our play area...right behind our couches in our living room :)
Here's our front door and our office area...the brown door leads to our laundry room (heaven!) and another door to our garage :)
This is a view of our dining room and fireplace...
Our dining room and kitchen...the boys eat at the island during the day...so nice!
This was Cole's first time eating without his tray :) Such big boys now!

One of our favorite rooms in the house is our monkey bathroom...created for my two little monkeys...almost 3! (Ryder calls Cole "little monkey")...he loves nicknames just like me :)

Cole's room, soon to be little sister's room :)

Ryder's room...soon to be Cole AND Ryder's room! Goodbye queen sized bed...hello bunk beds!

Master Bedroom...yes, I know the picture above our bed is WAY too small...it's all we have for now!
Our Backyard...we're lucky to have a fenced in yard for the boys! It's about half and half around here, some backyards are fenced, others aren't :)

Here's Cole saying..."See you later!" I have to watch him really closely since he loves taking off down the driveway for the street! My little Mr. Independent...unless he's crawling in my lap on the rug to play. He's so cuddly! I hope you enjoyed the tour! Come visit us soon!





How fun to be able to see your home! It looks great and very roomy! You seem settled and happy - Praise the Lord! I hope we can come see you :)
Thanks for sharing the pictures of your house! I love it! Especially the monkey bathroom! We both went from palm trees to monkeys!! We are trying to work out a time to come visit, I will keep you posted! We miss you!
