House Shopping

I really don't claim to be much of a shopper. I have no desire to spend time searching for the best deals or bargain hunting, but when it comes to things like house shopping, I get extra extra excited! We've decided we've out grown our little house on Bonniebrook. The house has been good to us, we'll most likely bring both of our babies home to this house, and we created many wonderful memories as Mr. and Mrs. Zirnsak in that house, but... like other thing, it's time to move on.
Unfortunately, my loving husband and I have a very different desire of where we'd like to move. Me, I loved to move towards Cranberry/ Mars area. I have never lived in an area that has "neighborhoods" or fun street names. I have a desire to give that kind of living a try to give the boys the chance to experience neighborhood living and also different from good ol' butler. Matthew on the other hand, wants to buy 220394029348 acres and hunt all the time. :) So, needless to say, we're having a hard time finding a place that fits both of our desires right now. BUT today, there was a light at the end of the tunnel. I was searching the home listing websites when two surprise potential houses popped up! One is Matthew's dream home, literally. It's a log home set on 3.1 acres, it's quite beautiful but not in the school district I want. The other home, IS in the school district I want and sits on 1.65 acres, but the inside is what I love the most! :)
I do believe Matthew is on the phone with the real estate agent of the log home as I'm typing- God bless his excitement and love of so many things. :)

I'll keep you posted (blogged) on the whole new life change! :)

Jackson

Jackson is active. I sometimes forget to put a lot in here about what he's doing around this time in his life, but it seems it's always changing! The kid is bright! I mean, he's my child so of course I'm going to say he's accelerated, but he does take me off guard sometimes. For example, Jackson knows what his shoes and socks are. He knows how to say each. Last night we were getting ready to leave mom and dad's house and I said, "jackson, please find your shoes so mommy can put them on." Don't you know, he walked over to where his shoes were sitting on the chair and brought them close to me. He didn't hand them to me per say, haha , but the fact that at 16 months he was able to locate his shoes and bring them to me to put on was a very big accomplishment! :)
And this morning whenever Matthew was getting him ready to go to Terry's, as he was putting his socks on, with eyes closed, Jackson wanted to be sure to let daddy know that he was putting his "socks" on. He's so funny.
His newest favorite word to say would have to be cereal. I'm not sure why he finds it so enjoyable to say, but it is sometimes just said out of no where for the fun of it! :)

Big Baby Boy

So I am currently 28 weeks pregnant. My "due date" is October 25th but will be getting induced on October 18th due to a very special wedding event (trav and ann!) that is happening on October 23rd. Jude is huggge in my belly. Or well, at least he feels huge! I don't remember Jackson feeling so big at this point in the pregnancy, I can really only remember Jackson feeling huge towards the end and the uncomfortable feeling! So, I feeling, or well hoping, that Jude comes early! That way I don't have to get induced and hang out in the hospital for my long labor history.
