Our NEW house!

Well, everything happens at once. The Friday before Mother's Day, we found out that the house we had been trying to buy through a short sale since February fell through. On Mother's Day Sunday, we found a brand new house to buy that works for us even better than the other one. We signed the contract that following Wednesday and TOMORROW, 14 days later, we're closing escrow!!! We are SO excited to be moving and the house is wonderful. Each time I go see it, I like it even more.

So, with 5 weeks of pregnancy to go, we're moving. My Aunt and Mom have come out and been wonderful helping to get us packed - boy we have a lot of stuff! My Dad and Beth are coming to help with the actual move, and Marchus's family is planning to help move the stuff we don't want the movers moving. We are so thankful for everyone pitching in to help! We've got paint colors picked out for Adam's room and the baby's room and hope to get that painting done before we officially move in next monday.

We've spent the weekend packing and shopping for the things we'll need for the new house and our new bed is being delivered next Saturday! YAY!

We'll have a great guest room and lots of extra space, so we're hoping to have lots of visitors! So, let us know when you're coming!

Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day. We are all so blessed.

32 weeks - 8 weeks to GO!

We just got home from a great trip visiting family in San Diego. Adam had a great time with Gran and Granpy, Auntie Waa, and cousins Sarah and Simon. All of us enjoyed spending time each day at the beach and the park. Adam is still talking about it all!

Traveling was not too bad, even though Southwest has given up pre-boarding small children. Luckily, we got front row seats on both flights. Adam had mixed feelings about the airplane- being both excited and a little frightened by all the noise. Since we've been home, he's been playing airplane a lot and talking about it. He calls the propeller the "kopellar".

As of today, I am 32 weeks pregnant. That means only 8 weeks to go until our due date. I can't believe how this pregnancy has flown by. We are still crossing our fingers that we will get to move into a new house before baby arrives, but as the time ticks by, I wonder if it will happen.

I am feeling remarkably good, apart from being tired at the end of the day. I know with the weather warming up, I may be less comfortable, so I am enjoying the sunny days now.

Hope everyone is well and enjoying the springtime weather!
