Eric and I are so excited to own our first home. We both have our little dreams of certain perks of owning our own place. His is having a spot for a wood shop (which will be our garage) and my little dream garden will be coming next Spring in our backyard. These are both pastimes that make us happy and that we want to share with Emmett as he grows up. Of course the greatest gift is simply having a home that we get to care for and put love into and know that it truly is OURS! We certainly know how to make a living place our own and I just know we will do wonders to this home. We want to be proud of it and the work will get done to make it something special. We've got a lot of work ahead of us, but it's going to be great!
The neighborhood in Arlington Heights has TONS of kids! Next door is a house full of all boys and the other house next to us has 2 girls, one boy and one baby on the way. Emmett is going to have such a great childhood. We can walk to a movie theater in the downtown area. We can't wait to walk with Emmett there on a Sunday afternoon and catch a flick or two (that's usually how we Siegel's roll). There is also a nice big park a block away.
Here are some pictures of Emmett's new bedroom. I've got some master plans for his new nursery. This is "the before" and soon to come this October will be pics of "the after."
Emmett's view from his window (our neighbors sweet play set that hopefully Emmett can use too!)
