Since February...




SHEW! It has been a long time since my last post...I laughed when I looked and saw the last pictures I posted were of snow! HA! So here goes...since last FEBRUARY...
*We put our house on the market and it sold in about a month...something we were not expecting to happen so soon...but so thankful that it did:) It was quite a bittersweet thinng for me...we really needed more space...but this was the first house Aaron and I bought/built together...I brought all of my babies home here...lots and lots of memories made there. I cried like a baby the last time we drove off from it...I even lade the rounds and hugged a few walls before we left. I hope the new family is as happy there as we were.

*We looked all over for a house we liked...but couldn't find one...so we are building! Loved picking out everything down to the mortar and paint. I can't wait to get in...but that takes about 6 months so we are...

*Living with my parents...AWWWWW! Tight quarters! Very blessed to have them to stay with...but am SOOOOO ready to have my own space back.

*Cole is almost a year old...which I cannot hardly believe. He has six teeth...and is crawling everywhere and pulling up on everything! His sisters still love him to pieces...they even fight over who gets to lay and sit next to him.

*Kerry Ann graduated form pre-K and she is super excited to start kindergarten in the fall at Mommy's school.

*Riley has become my little sensitive bug...I think the move and baby brother have been hardest on her. She has been a lot more needy at home...and we have had some bad rounds of temper tantrums...but then she'll turn around and be super sweet. I know it's just a phase...but MAN! Can't wait til she's out of it! She has also become my little model. I have gotten the cutest pics of her lately!

*In March, I became an aunt again! Joanne and Tim welcomed Mr. Reid into the world 7 weeks early...and perfect as can be! We love him to pieces and we can't wait to see him and Cole grow up together and play together...it is going to be SO fun! Hmmmm...

I know there is a ton I am leaving out...but promise to get back on the blogging bandwagon when we get settled in. We are headed to Great Wolf Lodge next week with some friends...and then will hopefully be closing on our house and moving in before school starts...surely...I will post pics of the new house next time!
