Weekends go too fast

Saturday morning sweet P was up and at em at 6:30. Daddy was sweet and took bottle duty so I could sleep again after my 5:30 pump session. Luckily, P fell back asleep and the whole fan bam slept in until 8:45! That's right, 8:45!!!!!  

Knox ate and we added an ounce to each bottle to catch him up for the day. 

The boys enjoyed their second day of sweet potatoes. Pierce still doesn't know what to think of them. He doesn't hate them- I think he just prefers bananas. Knox on the other hand- he can't get enough! That boy goes nuts!!!! He screams for more and his mouth is open and waiting for the next spoonful. It's hysterical. 

Waiting for sweet potatoes

P isn't too sure....

Give it to me!!!!! - K


Nick spent the morning working and I played with the LPs and got ready. Around 2, we headed to Grapevine to checkout a new subdivision Nick had found. 

The subdivision was awesome. It's a new build with 64 lots. They are closing out and are "very motivated" to sell. This is good for us and we even found one that's our style and will be ready in April. I'm hoping and praying this may be it!!! I love that it's in close proximity to the lake, downtown Grapevine, wineries, shopping centers, the taxes are less, but most importantly, the schools are great!!!  The LPs would be getting an excellent education which is our top priority. 

When we finished, we stopped by Landon and Lauryn's. Lauryn was at a bachelorette party and Landon was holding down the fort. We fed the babies and visited for a while. 
Daddy and Uncle Landon with the LPs. 

We were pretty off of our routine and P had a tough night. Which led to Sunday  morning....

All 3 men asleep for an hour!

We headed house hunting again around 1:45 and drove through some of the places we were interested in doing the pros and cons. Location, accessibility, schools, cost, etc. you name it, we were discussing it. 

Around 3:30 we stopped by L2 house again and Matt Ballard and Landon watched the boys for us so we could do a little more house hunting solo. They are both so good with the boys and Nick and I had an open house we wanted to swing by. 

The open house was a bust and the realator was super aggressive which is so not my style. Nick and I were overwhelmed by her and could not wait to get out of the house! The house was not even close to what we are looking for either. Aye ye ye!!!!

We drove around some more stating our pros and cons and finally came to the conclusion that we want a new build and we are leaning towards the Grapevine area. Everything out there that's for sale needs a lot of work. Why put the extra money into the house when with the extra money you'd put in, you can buy a brand new house?  It just doesn't make sense. So at least we've settled on one thing. Now I am praying no one comes and buys the house I adore before we do. Please say some prayers. This process has been nothing short of exhausting - especially for Nick. The boys have been troopers but I think we are all ready to find "the home" and I'm thinking that maybe we did!!!

Here's a sneak peek of the possible home!
Open living room

Kitchen ( love all the cabinets!)

Hallway from front door to living room/kitchen 

Dining room

Study

Game room

Media room

Master bedroom

Master bath with his/her closets!

It's 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, 3 car garage. I'm hoping and praying we found it!!! Time will tell!!! 

We grabbed pizza and salad as a thank you for watching the boys and had dinner with Ballard, Sarah (his awesome girlfriend), and L2 (Lauryn was home)!!! They did a great job with the boys and we got a little off schedule again. Didn't get home until 7:30 ish and attempted to put them down. We laid them both down a little after 8, awake. Knox fussed a little and P pretty much hit the sack. I then ran to the grocery store to get our necessities for the week. Sweet Nick did bottle duty and folded our laundry. Super hubby to the rescue. Thanks honey. You are the best!!!

Praying next weekend, we are buying a house!!!!
