Stud Finder

So, as you know after being in our new home almost 3 months, with the pleasure of moving twice, I feel like we are still not organized and it is taking forever to remove ourselves from limbo land. I am still combing through boxes of stuff /junk we really don't need (but as soon as we throw it away like magic it becomes necessary) but had the pleasure of moving 2 times--so much fun! Anyway, yesterday Jeff was helping me hang some heavy pictures on the wall and we could not find the stud finder. (My husband is a stud, but is OCD when it comes to hanging pictures on the wall into a stud even if it is not in the center of the wall) I prefer things centered and pleasing to the eye, especially when my mother comes to visit and discovers the optical illusion if mirrors are off by meer 1/2 inches :) Love you Mom and can't live without your expert opinions!

We had the stud finder in hand earlier in the day, and had placed it in a specific spot where we would be sure to find it! When it came time to find it again it was no where to be found. We enlisted the troops (the oldest 3 children) and spent an hour looking for it! So frustrating, and such a waste of precious time. We finally gave up and went onto another important project, and then low and behold it was found in the pantry cupboard where #4 child had been sneaking tortilla chips while the rest of us were on the stud hunt! I love how 1 year olds leave little trails of stuff as they move on from one thing to the next! Their little minds are so funny and I love our little WES so much--even when he puts us on wild goose or stud finder chases every day of our lives. We are thankful that it was not shoes this time! Isn't a family of 6 always missing a shoe somewhere? Even if they are always 100% put back where they belong, the right way the 1st time. (Sound familiar anyone?)
