Home Pictures

**Sorry for the weird picture spacing - I can't undo it!**
I feel like this house is finally a home! We've got most of our pictures up, and have finally added some of our personal touches. Mine and Tony's room is still pretty much a blank canvas, and Leila's room is a work in progress, but we are getting there. Since moving into a house Tony and I are officially grown ups. Does getting married and having a baby make you a grown up? Nope. But buying furniture does! We bought: a new bed (headboard and footboard,) mattress/boxspring, couch, loveseat and wine cabinet. We also got some really beautiful, almost brand new office furniture. So, as requested, here are some pictures:

Our Room:
Well, it's not our entire room, but just a picture of our new bed.
Leila's Room:
Like I said it's still a work in progress. We still haven't put up her curtain, pictures or shelves. Also, I ordered some removable wall stickers in hot pink, chocolate brown and white (polka dots) that I will put on the wall her crib is against. Her bedroom (and ours too!) is a lot smaller than her room in the apartment, so everything is a little cramped. Oh, well.







Leila's Bathroom:
Normally I wouldn't add pictures of a bathroom, because...well, a bathroom is just a bathroom. But, this weekend my mom and I went to Bed, Bath and Beyond and found the cutest set for Leila's bathroom. It's called "Hazel" by Roxy, and you can see the detail of the print at: www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&sku=110569

















The den:
It is so nice to have an extra room! I love that we don't have the computer on the dining room table anymore! We were generously given the beautiful furniture in this room! (The chair was already ours.)




















The Living Room:
When we first moved in the wall that the couch is against was covered in hideous wallpaper. I don't remember what color the rest of the room was painted, but I didn't like it, so Tony and my Dad painted it the lovely color I bought. I love our new couch and loveseat, and the lamps are Tiffany-style lamps from Target.












































The Kitchen:
I really like our kitchen. If you saw our old kitchen, you know why...there's room! Now, the cabinets look like they were put in by a giant mountain man (seriously, they look like they belong in a cabin in Twain Harte for a bunch of 6-feet-tall guys!) but I love how much room I have. I also love the big window! I can snoop on the neighbors while doing the dishes.


















The Front Door:
We have a pretty stained-glass door. It is accented by the pumpkins, gourds and indian corn we got from Joan's Pumpkin Patch last week.




















And last, but not least...the backyard:
Ramon is crazy for his new backyard! He hot laps, and leaps across the grass. He also loves when Tony rakes the leaves into a big pile. The pile never lasts too long once Ramon sees it!
