The Downstairs and the Stairs

After awhile, I finally snapped some pictures of the downstairs. I wanted it to look perfect, but have decided that if I wait for that I will never take any pictures. It will be a while before we can do much else. Right now we have no blinds or curtains and who knows when we will, but we don't have neighbors behind us yet anyways. We have boxes shoved in our master bedroom windows and material taped to the kids' windows.

Addie was crawling around while I was snapping pictures. And don't mind the Cake Boss on in the background. Daniel was outside with the other three.

All that the kids wanted for the new house was STAIRS!!!!!! For the first couple of weeks, Addie didn't try climbing up so I would only use the gate at the top. Then one day I went up to put Bensen down for a nap and then headed back to go downstairs and she peeked around the corner at the landing. She had crawled half way up and now won't stop. She looks so tiny climbing up.
The other kids think it is so funny when she climbs up. She is quick too.
She fell off the step on the landing in this picture. You can see her falling in the bottom of the picture. It was only one step. She grabbed a car and then tried to sit up.
