Los Porchs Find a New Home {Vintage Style}

April 1 can't come soon enough!  Okay, it can and it will.  There is much to be packed and organized and labeled to death before the big move.  Making matters even crazier?  I won't be here to offer supervision of this move -- which is driving me crazy.

Here's a sneak peek at our new place -- we signed the lease on February 29 and though we arrived at 7:30, we didn't leave until almost 11pm.  I'm excited to have a landlord who enjoys a good beer and can chat about food & entertainment the way we do!  I'm also excited that we found a place with the vintage-y feel with rehabbing done.

They did an amazing job of maintaining the personality of the building while bringing it up to today's standards.
The listing boasted 4 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms.  Let the record show that there are 2 (good-sized) bedrooms, 2 small (won't fit a bed) bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and the biggest flippin' living space I've ever seen.  I fully realize the pictures won't do it justice -- get over it and enjoy my new favorite game:

It's amazing.  I could stand in that blank slate for hours and my greatest urge is to jump on Pinterest and figure out a plan.  Go ahead.  Soak it in.  Let it marinate.  Then share what you would do with this amazingly mold-able space!

Sunroom (complete with green carpeting -- GO PACK!)

There's so much to love about this place and we are so excited to add our flair.  Can you imagine how amazing the 3rd Annual Catalina Wine Mixer will be at this place?!  Le sigh.

Charlotte {9 months}

Let's just put this out there, we picked Charlotte before Charlotte was a princess.  ;)  And I'm not sure that the royal baby will ever be called Charlie or Charlie Bug and I'm even more certain that I don't care what they named their kid.  It's just about to be an amazingly popular baby name and we were TOTES ahead of that trend. Charlotte is 9 months old already! Stats Weight:  20 lbs, 12 oz (86.13 %ile) Length:  29.75 inches (98.75 %ile) Head circumference:  18.23 inches (96.69 %ile) This girl is perfect.  She is proportional and amazingly squishy. Teeth:  still just the 2 lower, but I'm confident she'll have a few top teeth soon.  She's been a drool machine lately and everything is back to being in her mouth. Charlotte likes... ... walking around the house (holding mama and daddy's fingers) ... Army crawling, especially when she can pull on the high pile carpet in her room ... those Gerber wheel treat things ... bath time ...

Charlotte's birth story

Thank goodness this isn't my 40 week update; I was really nervous that I'd have to write one of those and even possibly the dreaded 41 week update!  Today was her due date, but we got to meet her just a little early.  Charlotte Esther joined our family at 2:07am on Friday, August 8th... and changed our lives forever.  There's now a squishy baby who calls for us and loves nothing more than snuggling on our chests.  We are, in fact, living the dream.  A dream 4 years in the making and worth every moment.  My heart is so full of love for Charlotte and I am so excited to see how she grows and changes. I have always enjoyed reading the birth stories of my blogger friends' babies and felt it gave me hope as it was the final moment in the battle against infertility, the crossing of a finish line.  So today, in celebration of love and this chubby cheeked baby girl, I share with you the story of Charlotte's birth.

Momma K

It's true.  I love my mom.  She's my best source of advice & wisdom, even though it took me roughly 20 years to figure that out.  I just wanted to take a quick second and thank her for all that she's done for me and especially for the things she didn't do for me.  =)  I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. Love you mom! We're pretty fabulous, no?
