Family Firsts

Jacoby had quite a day today. He went swimming in his little pool we bought him for the first time. He wasn't sure about it in the beginning but after a food break he was pretty excited. We lathered him up in sunscreen and sat him in the sun while the local paparazzi (me, steph and gabe) clicked away with cameras and video. After a much needed bath and nap, we were off to the last 4th at Sugarhouse park with aunt Steph and cousin Gabe. They kept his interest for about 5 minutes then the phone became the entertainment for the evening. The finale caught his eye though. We will miss our Sugarhouse tradition.

As for me and Brian, it is a good possibility we
may be getting our first house. We found a cute little home near our house now. I shouldn't say little because the main reason we are getting it is because it is a really good size. It will fit our future growing family well. It has a few good projects in it and that is what we are excited about. We plan to rip up the carpet and sand the hardwoods below and paint. We eventually want to stain the kitchen cupboards and put in new counter tops. The upstairs needs new carpet as well. We understand this will cost a pretty penny but we are very willing to sacrifice. We will find out Tuesday what they counter our offer with. Hopefully it will still be in our price range. I will keep you all updated.
