New house, part 2...

Here is another slide to show you the rest of our house (with the exception of the garage and unfinished basement). Remember that we've been here for just three weeks, and I am still organizing and trying to decorate. I am wide open to suggestions to any of you who are super organizers or fabulous decorators. I mentioned that before, but I didn't get any suggestions... hint, hint. I am waiting for them! We are still trying to decide if we want to finish the basement and hopefully our yard will get done in the next month or so. So, maybe more pics then, and if we decide to finish the basement.

Hey Kristen! I need to call you! about that book! One of the characteristics of Ephraim's children is that they are very energetic and get distracted easily. They mention a lot how it is NOT ADHD, yet is confused. Jacey is bossy too. And they make a BIG point how transitioning from one task to the next is hard. I have to nag, nag, nag Jacey to do stuff. She doddles. In the book it explains it so well! I would definitely recommend it, it would at least give you some pointers and advice. I've never read a parenting book that explained jacey as closely as this one. The title of it is Parenting the Ephraim's Child. The authors are Deborah Talmadge and Jaime Theler.
seriously, get it. it won't hurt. I am only about 90 pages in and already love it. It is an LDS based book too, so that is nice.

Wow Kristen! What a beautiful, beautiful home! It makes me feel so grown-up to know people my age are living in houses like yours! Your bed is gorgeous, all of your home is gorgeous! I don't think you need any decorating tips, rather you should be the one giving them! I know who I'm calling one day when we have a house and I need to decorate it! :) Congrats to you and your family! ~Jessica W.
