A New Home

Well, I finally have a few things to say and we'll see how much I can say as Arianna is taking a nap and will probably wake up :)
First off, we bought our first home. It's a 12 year old condo in Chilliwack, it's concrete, 8 story's high and 1225 square feet. It's really nice inside and we got a very very good deal on it, and we can't wait to move in. It has 2 bdrm 2 bath, a nice big kitchen with a window (which I like) two big closets in the bedroom (thank goodness cause one little rack was getting a little small for all of Michael's clothes) nice big tubs, everything about it is great. We get the keys October 19th, so we plan to get in there clean it up a bit (as it used to be a rental) and paint Arianna's room and the master bedroom. I have a few ideas as to how to paint Ari's room, but we'll see when the time gets closer and I've "drawn" up a few ideas.
Also, we are heading to Medicine Hat for a week October 6th to visit Arianna's Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Durk, whom she hasn't met, and they are very excited to meet their newest little Great Granddaughter. We are driving there and this is Ari's first big car trip, so I'm hoping all goes well, knowing there's going to be a "few" stops to change diapers, feed, and all that good stuff, but since she's a little trooper (knock on wood) it will be great.
Arianna has her next doctors appointment coming up very soon, and I'm very excited to see how she has grown! She is a very tall and chubby baby. She is also such an amazingly happy girl, she has her moments but what baby doesn't. Overall she always has a big smile on her face or she is screaming with laughter. She's learning so many new things as well, she sits and plays in her exersaucer now without falling over, she can sit up for a period of time but of course weebles wobbles does occasionally fall down. Like I said before she know has 2 teeth, both on the bottom, and now we are starting to feel the top tooth come up and down as well, of course that could be awhile before that actually comes in. Her hair is growing as well (after the bath and it's all puffy) LOL but other than that it's really not growing, but that's okay she's my little cue ball and she's cute like that!
We start swimming lessons on October 1st, which I'm really excited for. Her two friends will be in her class, and since she's such a little water bug it will be great watching her learn to swim.
Anyways, that's all I have right now to post, I'll put up some pics of the new condo, and I'll try to put up this cute video I have of Arianna eating in the morning. It's too funny!
