So yes, we are now living in our new home. We really like it a lot, and are excited to start working on it. Here are some pros and cons about our new home:
PROS:
*More bedrooms and bathrooms
*Much bigger yard for Evelyn to play and run around in
*Babysitting-aged neighbors just next-door
*A DISHWASHER!!!!!
*Lots of puppies for Evelyn to see and pet
*You can actually put a crying child in one part of the house and not hear them in another part
*2 fireplaces
*A built in hutch
*At least double the cupboard space I had before
*A 3-car attached garage
*We're 1 1/2 blocks from a park
*There is more storage here than we'll ever be able to fill up
*Close to the mall and grocery store
*Only 2 miles from our storage shed for work
*Lots of big windows facing east and south
CONS:
*Evelyn can't tell where the driveway ends and the road starts as they are both blacktop. This means I have to watch her closely when she plays in the driveway.
*I don't want to even see the first heating bill.
*Bigger house means a lot more to clean and keep picked up.
*We're on the opposite end of town from family.
As you can see, there are a lot more pros than cons about our new place. We love just about everything about it. It'll be a great home for us to grow into - one neighbor even offered to sell us their cedar play set for the girls. We've moved into a higher class neighborhood than we were in before. It's been fun to meet some of the neighbors and get settled in.
