Getting Ready for the Townhouse

This morning we left the house around 9:30am to head into Annapolis. We went to see some futons that another MOM is trying to get rid of since they are moving to France the end of April. The futons were really nice and a great deal (2 futons with mattresses for $140) so we will go back to pick them up the weekend of April 18-19. After that we went to the mall and let the boys run around for a bit. We then headed to Sears to look at dishwashers because they were having a sale. We looked at a few options and then went to lunch because the boys were hungry. After eating we went back into Sears and planned to buy one of the dishwashers we had looked at, but their system was down. We waited for a bit, but the boys were exhausted and not happy so we left and decided to go back later this week. While the boys napped I decided to get online and see if we could buy the dishwasher online, but it wasn't working. While online I went ahead and looked around at other stores to see if we could find a cheaper one (the one at Sears was more expensive than we had wanted to spend, but had everything we wanted). I remembered my mom saying she had found most of their appliances at Lowes so I went there after looking at a few other places with no luck. Well, I was surprised to find a dishwasher in black with the Sanitizing Rinse & Sanitizing Wash along with being able to do a half load (run only the top rack) for $100 cheaper than the one at Sears. Ben and I decided to go ahead and get this one since it was cheaper and had more features (we love the idea of being able to run only the top rack for the boys' cups and also having the Sanitizing Rinse & Wash). So it will be waiting for us to pick it up from the Lowes in Bel Air once we are moved into the house.

My mom bought us the freezer we were looking at from Sears. We will pick that up the morning we are moving into the house. We have also gotten new locks for the front door, cleaning supplies, and various other odds and ends we will need for the townhouse. My friends from high school (Kami & Jerry) are being great and letting us have 2 chairs and ottomans that they no longer need. As for furniture we pretty much just need 2 more dining room chairs.
Here are a few pictures of the boys at lunch having dessert...
