Change is good...

These past few months have brought a lot of decisions that needed to be made. After a lot of tears, a ton of help from my father in law, and plenty of prayers we decided to short sale our first home and are moving real soon!
 This was a huge decision on my part and VERY hard for me, some nights I would cry and just pray that we were making the right decision and the good Lord really justified to me that we did when we found out on our 4 year wedding anniversary that we got the house we put a bid on AND that we could put our home up for sale. It still breaks my heart to leave our first home, but I am so excited for this new home (which is gorgeous) and new beginnings =) And am soooo thankful for what a blessing my father-in-law is to us!
 Karly's 3rd Birthday is also coming up this week, and in finishing her baby books... it is crazy to see all the changes in her! And the similarities and differences in her and her baby sister Abby... LOVE THESE TWO BEAUTIFUL THINGS!!!
 We have been packing up! Karly will tell everyone... "We're getting a new house!!!!" Abby and her are having a ball with all the boxes. My climbers like to use them as stairs to get on top of the pool table... YES ABBY TOO... she is practically running now, and climbing is her FAVORITE! =/
 My little 3 year old LOVES her razor scooter!
 And I haven't found a thing that this one doesn't love... she SMILES at just about anything!
 Both changing so much these days!
 Another big change... I had let my hair grow pretty long this time and had been ready to donate it for a while...
 This little one was the only thing really stopping me... SHE LOVES MY HAIR... it is like her security blanket. She loves to play with it while she is going to sleep. SOOOO I asked her... "Karly, I was going to cut my hair short like yours so we match and give some sick little girl the rest of my hair!" ... she say, "Ok, ya mom!"
 When I walked in she was kind of shocked and didn't know what to think. But I let her do my make up and then she was on board... now she will look at me, touch my hair and say, "Mom, I like your hair!" =)
 And this one just smiled at me the whole time!
So, yes... many many changes in our lives these days...
 ... very exciting! =)
And I am having so much fun with my new hair =) I wasn't going to go this short, but my husband actually picked out this hair cut and I am glad he talked me into it... and I am super happy someone who needs it will be getting a pretty wig soon =)
