On the move

Owen has hit some milestones which I have seemed to overlook because of all the craziness around me.  He started sitting up from being on his tummy, he sits up on his own, he can walk in a walker, and his two bottom teeth are coming in.  He's a sweet little guy, soon I'll be able to spend more time trying to keep him from not being a baby anymore :(

FINALLY!!!

Almost 3 weeks after our original closing date we have finally closed on our house!  It was the most stressful 3 weeks ever.  Whenever something could go wrong, it did.  Each step along the way mistakes were made and it just snowballed.  Luckily with a lot of pressure from our realtor the mortgage company finally came through.  Our truck full of furniture was expected to arrive yesterday but because of a flat tire they were delayed until Thursday.  Despite all of our problems things are starting to fall into place.  I'm excited to get in there and start our new lives out here.  Now on to painting the girls' rooms tomorrow ;)  More pictures to come.

Lessons from Grandma

Well we've been spending lots of time with Grandma lately since our closing was delayed.  So in our time here Ella learned a few animal sounds to show off to everyone.

Life so far

Well, Colorado hasn't really given us the welcome party I was hoping for.  We've hit quite a few snags in closing on our new house which means we are still living with Jarom's parents.  While we are so grateful to have them here and help I know we all wish we could have our own space and time alone.  The girls can't wait to finally get into their new house and yard.  We're hoping that we can finally close next week.  We had to cancel our move from WA, so now we just wait until they give us the go ahead.  I'm really tired of wearing the same clothes everyday especially knowing all of my stuff is just sitting in boxes in WA.  Ugh...
I'm trying to stay positive but it is so hard.  So on the weekends we've been trying to get out to keep our minds off everything.
