June


I am so excited for this month! We are going to Utah-first to Lake Powell with the Croslands! and then I am staying an extra week with my family! Ben will be coming back for another cloning week with crazy hours so he'll be gone most of the time that week we're gone. Also, we are moving!!! No more neighbors throwing up over their balconies or cement walls surrounding the building. I have enjoyed our time here, but it's not that kid friendly. We live on the partying side of town. We are moving to an apartment complex where half of our student ward lives and it's so nice and open. My mom is coming to help us move, which means it will be done in no time:). Thanks mom! Our apartment actually has storage. I moved over a whole 3 boxes today. It gives me time to figure out how I want everything. Speaking of which, I really want a place to put all the toys that are taking over our house. Any suggestions? This would be the perfect solution: But, it's $700 at Pottery Barn and more than I want to pay! I think most of the time Cody pulls out kitchen utensils and things out of drawers over playing with his toys...

Unfortunately our internet is stopping today, so we'll be internet-less for a little while, but having fun!

How fun! I hope we'll get to see you while your in town! Moving can be exciting! :) I love that dresser too! Anything pottery barn is good :) I use alot of bins for toys ... i find that is the easiest way to have Baylee help me clean up, it's less complicated ;) maybe a big open toybox? Good luck! I have found cute furniture on walmart.com and it's the southshore line and it's pretty inexpensive! love ya!

I think one of the best stores for space efficiently is IKEA. They don’t have as nice of furniture as Pottery Barn but if you only want it for five or so years, they are great. There stuff is made for small spaces and small wallets!

Look at Target or Ikea. I just got a storage shelf from Target that I love. It has nine cubbies and super cute baskets to go in some of them. Target has some great storage solutions. I love moving because then you get to clean up and reorganize huh?

Hello Carrie, Ben and Cody! I saw your link on Amy's and I had to see how you were doing! Looks like you guys are keeping busy! Congrats on your pregnancy! Having 2 is sooooo much fun! It can be chaotic at times but I love it. Mine are 23 months apart and I THINK that is how far yours will be, not sure though! But it is so much fun! I am going to link your page on mine so I can check your updates if you don't mind! By the way, we now live down the street from Luke and Amy so when you are back in town we should all get together! Good to see you guys, your pics are so cute!
