Baby and Doggy

Chris and Alexa finally received part of the insurance reimbursement for the damage done to their home. Therefore, they are ready to start shopping for furniture! The first item on their list is a couch for the living room. It has been very hard for them to live with a baby when they can't set him down on anything. Their entire house is covered in dust and dirt from the demolition, except for the master bedroom/bath and the study. But even the study is off limits because it is full of the furniture that did survive. Their hope is to get the living room finished first so they have a comfy place to relax in the evening.

Saturday, Alexa and I went perusing for couches. She wants to have the stores narrowed down to places with furniture she likes so when she goes with Chris it won't take up as much of their time. She found a couple couches that were alright, but the one she likes the most she found online. We tried to go to the store that sells that couch, but they are still closed due to storm damage. We also found a great place with discount flooring, where they may get a rug to throw on top of their new finished cement.

They still cannot live in their house because the fumes are so strong from the lacquer finishing coat on their floor. In the meantime they've been staying at their neighbor's house. Travis and I stopped by their house Sunday to check out the floors. It's really cool and not what I expected it to look like. It almost looks like tiles.

After shopping, Alexa and Blair came over for a couple hours while they awaited the arrival of Chris' flight into Houston. Blair is doing this new thing where he props himself up like he's going to crawl. So far it's been nothing but reverse, so I'm sure he's ready to move forward. For some reason he seems even smaller with his little toosh pushed up in the air. Lol!

Travis hung out for a few minutes before hopping into the shower after work.

Callaway seemed a little jealous of the attention Travis was giving Blair. Usually the first thing Travis does after work is play with Callaway for 10 minutes. Look at all the baby hands and doggy feet:

The boys hung out by the table while Alexa and I did a little more couch searching on the web. Blair is pretty good at wedging himself into stuff, after going in reverse.
