Well we have been here for about a month now. Things are going pretty well, both Katie and I have been busy with our own things to really notice that we live together. The kids sure have noticed, they play all day and well into the night.
We have lots to do still at the house in magna but it is coming along slowly.
Today is Halloween and we are all very excited... well maybe Adam could be a little more excited but besides him we are all dressing up.
Jan- Professor Umbrigde
Lucy- Little Mermaid (dancing mermaid, if you ask her)
Ed- A Jedi, he really likes the light saber.
Hope everyone has a great Halloween and I look forward to seeing pictures of everyone.

Bed Bugs
Bed Bugs are awful little bugs that should bee wiped of the face of the Earth. They are a lot like Mosquitoes but they can;t fly or even jump very far, they live near were you sleep and they suck your blood, their bits make it look like you have a rash of some kind. They live in wood all around your bed or in your box spring. They are reddish- brownish in color, flat and roundish. they can fit in the tiniest crack in wood and under the floor boards, they can even fit into the screw holes with screws in them. Be aware of them they can lay five eggs a day and the eggs hatch every week. your infestation can grow fast. If your not careful it can spread fast beyond your bed to your dressers and other rooms.
How to avoid bed bugs, be careful when selecting a used bed and where it came from.
How to get rid of them call an exterminator and buy a heat gun anything over 110 degrees far. will kill them and hold the gun up to any wood in the room for about 5 to 10 seconds and that will be enough to get rid of most of them. Put all your bedding and clothes in the dryer for about 20 min. to kill any chances that they layed eggs in them or if they are living in your dressers. Check bathroom walls as well.
Check your mattress they will be on the outside of it they like hard surfaces so I found them on the outside seem of the underside of the mattress, but they live and breed on wood.
The good thing about them is that the don't carry any parasites, so you won't get sick. But man they are a pain and if you don't like bugs you'll hate these.
Good luck I hope my knowledge has helped some one else.

potty and moving
I feel so excited, Lucy is using the potty so good we are still working on the pooping aspect of it but so far it is good, she has also discovered she really likes bubble baths and asks for one every time she remembers about them.
I am moving everything basically myself but not only do I have to do our house we also get to move Josh and Katie's stuff back upstairs, it's a little frustrating but not to bad I guess at least I don't have to go through all of it I just have to get it up stairs.
But moving so far is going well, we got rid of both pianos already and our trailer, we also have most of our clothing and a good majority of my the toys and my craft room over at their house already within the last week.
I'm taking a small break to work on Eddie's blanket for his birthday and costumes for Halloween.
But Monday I'll start on moving again and this Friday and Saturday we'll finish Josh's basement hopefully.
Hope you enjoyed our update
