updates...

Well, we have put an offer on a house and it was accepted! If all goes according to plan, we will be closing on the new home Dec. 11! We are very excited and are looking forward to it!

Things have been pretty much normal around here for us. Len continues to put in long hours at work (poor guy!) and therefore I continue to put in long hours with the kids at home. Being in this apartment is really getting to the kids. Gavin now is having an extremely hard time sleeping. He was always the easy one to get to sleep, but boy... how things have changed! All of a sudden one night when putting him down, he just started screaming. Ever since then, it takes at least an hour and a half to get him to sleep (both for bed time and nap time), and he is now waking up multiple times during the night as well. Ugh. We are all exhausted.

Like I said... we are VERY excited about moving, and I'm hoping that will solve all of these sleeping issues.

Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!

There is always a reason...

So, just in case you are wondering why you haven't heard anything from our wonderful family... I promise that there is a good reason. We have sold our house and moved! Since the move, we have not had Internet. We are waiting until we are in our new house to reconnect to the wonderful world wide web.

We sold our house on Sept. 22. Man, what a whirl wind that was. Our plans were to build a home that would be ready in Dec/Jan. So, after selling our home we have moved into a very tiny, very cramped apartment until our next move in Dec. Plans have changed, and now will be buying a pre existing home and hopefully closing sometime in Dec (we are in the lease now until then.... ugh). Life is VERY challenging in the apartment, and we find ourselves grumpy pretty much most of the time... so we are really looking forward to Dec. Unfortunately, I won't be posting a lot between now and then, but will do my best to keep everyone up to date on those precious kiddos!
