We have three bathrooms in this house. Odd way to start a post, I know - but stick with me if you can...
When we moved here last year in May, I put all my stuff into the ensuite off of our bedroom - but Kurt decided to keep his toothbrush and other personal toiletries in he main bathroom off of the kitchen because there was very little room in the ensuite cupboard. We've been talking for a while about when Peyton and possible siblings (no! not yet!) start to use that bathroom more often he should move his stuff into "my" bathroom.
But honestly?
I'm kinda selfish with my space. I've got more stuff - and it tends to take up both drawers and under the sink. And since he never really complained about having to go to the other bathroom to put on his deodorant in the morning, it just kinda stayed that way.
But two weeks ago, we bought a toothbrush. Not just any toothbrush. A Phillips Sonic toothbrush. I haven't had this much fun brushing my teeth since I had those little chewy-things in grade 4 where all the guckies on your teeth became obvious. But this brush needs to plug in. So after much rearranging of the limited counter space in our bathroom, we made room for it - mainly because I was tired of going to the main bathroom to brush my teeth. (chuckle)
But that's not the point of this story. (Although it has taken up half a page already.)
The point is that while I was rearranging in order to put the Phillips Sonic toothbrush in our bathroom, I found space for his toiletries. (All 3 of them...)
So this morning - after I brushed my teeth and got happy, and he was finishing up getting ready for the day - I said to him, "I think you can move your stuff into this bathroom now."
He froze, and was like, "Seriously??
(I'm chuckling just remembering...)
And I was like, "Yeah - seriously. I cleared a space in the drawer."
So he went to the other bathroom and got this stuff and brought it back into our room. After he put his stuff in the drawer we just looked at each other and grinned like something momentous had happened. I threw myself in his arms and said what we were both thinking:
"We just moved in together!"
Romantic, no?
What can I say: after almost 6 years, you gotta take the excitement where you can. (lol!)

You guys are too funny. I needed that chuckle this morning :)
Cute story! We got a Phillip's Sonic electric toothbrush for Christmas last year. I never had a desire for an electric toothbrush, but I love it. It takes a little getting used to - at first I sometimes forgot, and I would take it out of my mouth thinking I had brushed enough, and it would still be going and I splattered toothpaste all over me and the bathroom!
HA! I laughed out loud!
cute story!
I just wanted to tell you this put a HUGE grin on my face!! You two are so cute!! :)
haha! That's cute :)
Somehow it feels official when the toiletries coexist.
And I must admit: I too love my electric toothbrush :)
