Asante is getting braces!!

He had his first appointment this afternoon to get molds and pictures of his mouth, not too exciting, until he called me to check his work schedule for the next few weeks. The days the doctor had open, he worked...thank you retail. So he said why not today?? Sure enough, as we speak, he is sitting in the orthodontist's chair gettting his braces put on :-) It will be a huge change but he is really excited, so I am really excited for him! I got my braces off when I was 14 so it is all a little funny to me. Leason learned... wear your retainer!!

Look at those pearly whites....before photo

After, you can hardly tell!

4 Weeks... WOW Thought it was 4 Days!!

Well I just realized it has been four weeks since my last post... why you might ask... my only reason is because our live is a mess right now. When I say a mess, that sounds like a very bad thing, but what I really mean is everything is MESSY!!

At the end of February, Asante and I moved in with my grandma, Grams. We packed and cleaned our apartment and were out by February 26th. Once we got everything to Grams, it becuase very apparent how much "stuff" we really have. About 10 donation bags and a full storage unit later I still feel like we have no where to put our stuff. Both of our cars are still full of stuff; I am about at the point I just want to trow it all away! It has been 3 and a half weeks and I am finally starting to relax :-) If you know me at all... messy is very hard for me to handle! I am so blessed to have an amazing Fiance who keeps me calm and reminds me that everything will turn out fine. We still have a few boxes that need to go to storage and more shoes than I know what to do with, but things are starting to come together and I couldn't be happier about it.

Side note.... Before we moved in, Grams started to have the bathroom re-done. I am soooo happy about this! When I lived there before it grossed me out just a little bit. Needless to say, it is nowhere near finished. At least now we have a toilet and sink, so I don't have to run upstairs first thing in the morning, after waiting in bed too long :-)
