this week is the week!

We are hoping (with fingers crossed) that we'll be moving to into our new home this week! We've had some "bumps" these last couple of weeks with the house (a little flood, wrong stain for the floor then a total stain re-do, as well as other typical issues that go with house building) but it looks like we're going to be living there by the end of the week! Busy doesn't seem like an adequate word to describe our days right now...along with packing, cleaning, organizing, lifting, loading, unloading, cleaning and more packing, we have "normal life" going on like head colds, family get-togethers, preschool graduation, baseball games, a spring concert, kindergarten graduation accompanied with some trips to town and trips back and forth to the new house (which is 8 miles). I can't wait for life to slow down a bit for us and to be in our new house!!!
I have lots to post about these three and will get to it once I have some time! I'm procrastinating on packing right now and the computer was calling my name :)

Oh Katie!! How exciting!! Yay! You deserve a brand spankin new house!! I am so happy for you guys and can't wait to see pictures!

I feel terrible that I missed all the info on her Cath! I am a terrible heart friend- TERRIBLE- and I would have loved to come visit. I am so glad that it went well and that her sats are higher... so great! Her hair is getting so long and she is looking so old... even her little feet in poo-pops are big girl style.

Congrats again and enjoy your fresh new house!

Yay, yay, yay! It is so much work (and we did it without three kiddos!) but it will be so worth it. I'm so happy you guys are so close and see the light at the end of the loooong tunnel. I wish we lived closer so we could come over and help!

I've been thinking of you a lot lately and praying that your house was coming right along and that you wouldn't get too stressed out with moving. It's hard. I did it with one child and can't imagine doing it now with more. Hope you have a lot of help. It will be so nice once you're in. I bet you feel relieved that Maddie already had her tune-up.

Maddie looks so big with her long hair down. And if that isn't a Cade face I don't know what is. I'm counting on watching kids while you get some unpacking done next week.

So glad everything went well for Maddie! How wonderful to be able to fix the problem without surgery!
