Update

We have been here in Oregon for almost two weeks and things have been very busy. I have really enjoyed myself with berry pick'n and the sisters. The first week was getting things in order so our house felt like a home and not full of boxes. Oh believe me the boxes are not done being unpacked they are just in the garage so I don't have to look at them. We had some wonderful help from some dear friends of our with our move. Bro. Robert took time out of his work to help us drive the Penske truck and Lee's cousin Tiffany helped me drive the van. I was so glad for all there help. They went above and beyond to help us. Thank you guys so much and we love you guys so much.

The second week has been Lee trying to find work. He had to do a little more stuff in order to start looking. And tonight he is on his way to do two bids. We are still praying that the Lord will provide. He has always done a wonderful job of it.

I have done really good with this move and my pregnancy. I have been a little wore out at times but that is just how anyone feels after moving across country. The baby is moving all the time. And I just love to lay and feel him move around. This just brings a huge smile to my face. The time has gone by so fast this time, I can't believe the time is getting so close. I am almost 31 weeks and just 9 more to go. Wow, it sorda feels unreal. I still have lots to do to get ready for this little guy. But there is so much to do before I will be ables to that.

We Have Arrived!

I have been so busy that I haven't had the time to get on here and let you all know that we have arrived. We left a week ago on monday morning and got here wednesday night. Believe me I have been wore out. But I am so glad that we are here. I will post more later but there is so much to do. Just letting you all know we got here safe.

Good Bye for Now!

HAPPY FOURTH LADIES!!!

Today is my last day on here until we get moved. I am doing all the laundry, and repacking the suitcases for our long awaited move. We have dinner plans with some wonderful friends this evening and then Lee will pick up the moving truck in the morning to load it with all of our stuff. We are going to spend the night with some wonderful friends who have been so good to us and go to church one last time here before we go. Then monday morning we will be Oregon bound. Wow that sounds a little unreal to me. We are actually heading out finally. I just pray that I can make this move feeling wonderful. I will be limited to my drinks though or else we might not ever get to our destination. As it is the baby is always on my bladder. So off to finish the laundry I must go.....

Glistening Water Fall!

As all of you know we are staying at my moms house until we move. So as a good house guest I try to pull my weight around here and do things to help out. So tonight I decided that I would unload the dishwasher, so me and my big helper Elisha went to conquer this task. I usually get the things on top and have the kids hand me the things on bottom since bending over is getting a lot harder to do. So as I was putting up the glass cups on the glass shelf, all of the sudden a water fall of glasses came cascading around my legs leaving me in a pool of glass with no where to go. Quickly Elisha leaps to the counter for safety dropping sippy cups along the way. Samuel turns and runs in terror as the cups are still falling around me. I yell to my night and shinning armor to come and rescue me. He flashes a quick, "I'm MacGuyver" I can fix anything look and grabs the broom to rescue his only love who is standing with glass covering her bare feet. He swoops the glass off of the freezer for her to have a safe place to retreat while he softly brushes the glass shavings off of her feet. And begins the task of cleaning the mess. Now the mess is cleaned and we have to tell my mom that she is missing about 20 cups and that they are now in the trash. To my defense her glass shelf was missing one peg and the shelf tipped forward in the process of placing the clean ones up on it. I must say that no one got hurt in this little situation we had. Just the cups...

Busy as a Bee are We!!!!

We are out of the house and are at my moms house for the week. Lee has worked so hard trying to get everything done. I feel so blessed to have a husband who takes care of me. He also is redoing my Aunts kitchen before we leave also. So he has been so busy lately. He has done such a wonderful job on it. I will take some pictures when he is done grouting it so you all can see how good he is at what he does. I feel as if we have ran a marathon the last few days. The sad thing is that Lee has done pretty much everything. I have just tagged along for the ride most of the time. I feel like it might be awhile before things get back to normal. I am one who likes to get moved and have things unpacked as soon as possible. But I must say that I am already exhausted all the time and the further I get in this pregnancy the more tired I seem to be. But thankfully I have a husband who can't stand to live with boxes everywhere either, so I am sure he will have me unpacked as soon as possible. I might have to redo some things later on but that will be fine. I just appreciate all he does for me. I love you hunny so much and thank you for doing those little things for me.

Wore out!

Well we decided to move out of our house today. And what a exhausting day it has been for us. My sweet mother-in-law came down and helped me so much with the last minute packing. We planned on doing it tomorrow but we had some help today so today became the day. All the major stuff is out of the house and know I just have to do a little bit of the loose packing and cleaning of the house tomorrow. I am not looking forward to this but it is something that must be done. Now don't worry my mom is going to help me tomorrow. And my kids are going to run the sweeper and clean the bathrooms. So I guess you can say I will be the supervisor.

On another note, I was reading Trina's blog and the potty training and made me think of a little incident that I had with Samuel the other day. As you all know he is potty trained and has done a wonderful job with it. But I haven't taught him how to go number 1 standing up yet. Not to sure how I will do that one. I am hoping his dad will do it. O.k. let get on with the story. I was on my way home from town a few weeks ago and my little man started dancing around in his car seat. So I looked back and asked him if he needed to go to the bathroom, which of course he said yes. Well there was no where to go so I pulled over on the road to let him go on the side. My little guy was puzzled when I pulled his pants down and told him to go. It really bothered him that he had his pants off on the side of the road. He didn't know what to do. So he started yelling at me to put his pants on. So of course I did and put him back in his seat and told him to hold it till we got home. He made it home and was still dry but barely. I am hoping my husband will help teach him to go standing up so on the trip when there is no where for miles he can go on the side of the road.

Time Flies!

We are officially moving out of our house this weekend. So just a little more packing to do on friday and on Saturday everything will be moved over to storage for one week. Can you believe it we leave in just a week and a half. I am so excited that things seem a little unreal. I thought that I would be a little sad when we moved but with this taking so long I am just excited to get it over with. I will miss all of my friends and family but it is just way past time to go. So for now there are no tears but we haven't left yet.

I got to spend some time with my friend Sylvia today and I enjoyed our time together so much. I will miss you very much, but since we talk on the phone most of the time anyways. I think that will stay the same.
