AS CLEAN AS WE GET!!!!!

After the carpet cleaner left, we started putting furniture back in the rooms. We were tired of sleeping downstairs AND taking showers down there. It sure messed up our routine.

We didn't even take our alarm clock and we slept in on Saturday all the way to 5:45 a.m. Whoa!

While we were washing the windows (me on the inside and Tim on the outside) a man stopped and asked questions about the house. He sure sounded interested, and he didn't even flinch when he heard how much the we were asking for the house.

We just wanted to keep you informed that this is how our house looks when we are spotless (at least in our estimation). I am really stressed out about keeping the house cleaned. We have never been one to do that. It will really be hard to do. I hope it sells quickly, if just to save me from stressing to long about it. Did you notice that we have kitchen counters?

After all this work getting ready for the realtor to take pictures, he decided that he wasn't coming today. He will come tomorrow instead - ahhhh! Now I have to do this again tomorrow. Hopefully, we won't mess it up to bad in 24 hours.

Dad came home for lunch today and said that we have to be stressed until we sell the house. Oh boy, thanks alot. Just what I wanted to hear.

The realtor had a real sign put up today. When he takes pictures tomorrow and measures all the rooms, he will put up a box with the ads in it describing the house, etc.

Betsey and Zachary's room:


Erin's old room:

Elyse's room (still crowded, but much better than normal):

Somehow, Elyse sleeps with all these babies - I don't know how she has room for herself in the bed:

Our room:

The living room:

Our gorgeous painted wall (plus no clutter on the tables):

Dining room (we moved the music cabinet - makes the kitchen look bigger):

Kitchen (looks nicer in the picture than in person):

So, what do you think? We done pretty good, we think!

Yes, seriously, nap time! The house looks great. Thanks for the update. I was beginning to wonder if you guys were all still stuck in the basement! Can't wait to hear good news about three offers on the house!

We do need a nap. Unfortunately, there is lots more to do. I started on the garage after work today. That will take a bit of work.

If I had come to the kitchen pics randomly on the net, I would not have recognized it as our kitchen.
