    What's That Smell? Because It's Christmas

    Things Are…

    June 13, 2008 · Filed Under Recap 

    going better. I’m getting more and more adjusted here though I still miss people and wish we were 100% settled (unrealistic). Little baby girl seems to be on her way any minute (say the doctors)… Maybe even this weekend! I was greatly encouraged to come in at any sign because the baby is riding so low right now.

    The pool here is unbelievable which serves a 2-fold purpose for me. 1. Keeping the kids easily entertained, and 2. remaining as weightless as possible to ease pain and discomfort. Between the splash park, 0 depth, lazy river (not always working) and baby pool, there is just so much for the boys to do. They are becoming little fish.

    I haven’t posted pictures up of much because we simply aren’t there yet :) But I’m sure some will come soon… at least of the baby WHO we are getting closer to a name on, but that is not for blog world just yet.

    It has been fun getting re-acquainted with old friends and having good hang time. I have also made a lot of new friends in the neighborhood as everyone is so friendly and outgoing here. My neighbor Pam is just sweet as can be. It’s nice to be in a neighborhood where people actually talk to each other and look out for one another. Every week there are children’s activities every day too. This week they had a massive bubble day on the lawn, a fathers day craft, Friday coffee on the patio, a movie and more… next week my kids will be going to the zoo day where they bring in animals and talk about them, and the song day.

    Church-wise, we have visited one two times. We really like it but are going to try out another this weekend as well (so long as I’m not in the hospital). Hopefully we will know where we belong pretty soon. I don’t want to visit 100 churches in the Bible Belt :) But there are a few that we definitely want to try before we decide where to land.

    The boys are doing so great in a room together. They play up there a lot too. Owen talks about our old home a lot and really misses his buddies. But he is slowly making some friends here. I did decide to put him in preschool this year even though I really wanted to Home School it. I realized that now more than ever he needs to be in something where he can meet kids his age. He misses his school friends back home a lot. So for Pre-K he will be going to school.

    That’s it for now. I’m going to try and be more regular. Funny things happen everyday that my husband wishes I would blog about, I just haven’t been getting around to it!

      Glad to hear you’re doing well! Your new neighborhood sounds lovely, good for you guys. Keep us posted on the impending birth!

      By the way, I laughed when you said you were going to try to post more regularly…seriously girl, do you really think you’re going to have more free time??? I mean, I hope you DO post more and all that, but that cracked me up!

      God bless!

      I’m glad to hear everything is going well with the pregnancy and that you got moved alright. I can’t imagine being so pregnant and moving. Moving and pregnancy are difficult enough by themselves.

      Hi ,

      You might remember me. It’s been a year or more and I’ve decided to get started again. I see your hands are full with the move, the baby, poopy diapers, 2 am feedings… wow.

      I promise not to whine about anything, ever again.

      I await your return.

      Hank
