Count Your Blessings


Not that I can put too much information about some things on my blog, well, not until I know more details myself! But some really awesome and scary things have presented themselves to Matthew and I in the last few days. Not only are we expecting a little surprise called Jude in the next few weeks, we're also expecting our life to take some dramatic steps career wise. I'm petrified of some of the time I'll have to spend away from the babies, but everyone (aunt jul in particular) tells me it's better than waiting to when they are old enough to know I'm gone or away for periods of time. Which is ultimately true- I just think it's going to be hard for me to be away for periods of time with out giving kisses or hugs or getting them...
Rachel tells me to think of the future and what opportunities we're opening up to as a family. Mom tells me she still cries when she thinks about being away from Timmy and he's 29. :)
But- life is crazy.

Keep it sane readers.

THE HOUSE IS FOR SALE!


HORRRAYY!! the house is officially for sale. A scary, but fun and exciting process! we're hoping for a quick sale (obviously like an home seller) so that we can know what to expect for our family's future. With Jude on his way, and Jackson getting so stickin big by the minute, we're anticipating a lot of new and BIG changes. As many of you know, and know us well, Matthew and I like to do all the big things, life changing big things, at once. :)
But we are still looking all over the place (always Butler County) for where we might want to live? There are so many things in the playing cards now that it's hard for us to decide on what we want/need at this point. Obviously we know Matthew has a great position at IbisTek and he will be employed with them for a few more years to come! :) And with me starting the agency process, we're hoping I get offered a site that is conducive to where we all want to be! I would love for the boys to go to the Mars School district, but we still have some time to decide on which schools they'll be attending, well, we think there's time, but Ev will be turning 3 (THREE!!) in December... just crazy.
Welllll, that's all for now. As my brother always ends his post with something catchy, as will I.
Keep it interesting families! :)

Hi Fall- we've been waiting for you!

If you read my husbands blog, you can see why fall is so important to him :). but for me, it means a lot of things- new baby boy will be here soon! Holiday's are just around the corner and then hello 2011. I'm not sure how I feel about 2011 almost being here, I mean, not almost, but kinda really because with baby #2 coming in October, the rest of the year is going to fly by. 2010 has been good in a lot of ways but also bad in a lot of ways...
I'm excited today because I was able to get out a long sweater to wear in to work today, and I love sweater and boots weather! :) So, hello hunting and warm sweaters on cute little boys with a lot of fun fall pics to come!!
