For the last two and a half years that we've been living in Bakersfield, we were in a 2 bedroom apartment. It was fine for us then, and we didn't know how long we would be living down here. It's looking like we will be here for a while though, so we needed a change. We have much more space in the new house to accommodate four of us, and a huge backyard for Luke to run wild. Of course we still all sleep in the same bed, but I'm not ready to give up all the baby cuddles quite yet! My family went to our house in Orangevale and got a bunch of our furniture. Then they brought it to us down in Bakersfield and helped us move everything here. Needless to say, we couldn't have done this without their help! Thank you!
The main room is really most of the house, which makes it easy to keep an eye on everyone.
We have a little guest room/nap room for our occasional visitors.
The best part of the house is definitely the toy room! We spend a majority of our day in here.
Luke spends a lot of his day pretending to be Buzz Lightyear with his arms outstretched to fly.
Hilarious!
I had these prints made for the boys from etsy (link here). I love how they turned out!
Running around.
I had to have one girly room, so I made it the guest bathroom.
We also have a big master bedroom and bath. There is one more small room that Jon has all of his music stuff and some of my crafty stuff in. It's not picture ready yet though. So far we are really enjoying the house. We bought a lawnmower and an edger so that Jon can maintain the grass (and weeds in the backyard since we haven't taken the time to plant grass yet). Luke loves spending time outside working with Daddy on the sprinklers and digging holes. I can't wait to have two little boys running around out there!
