Albania!

I decided today that I love facebook! This morning I checked my account and had two new friend requests. They were from two sisters that I stayed with in Albania before Nathan and I got married. I had stayed in pretty good contact with them until their letters started getting returned to me. Turns out facebook has made it's way to Albania and now I can see what they look like not just get their letters. I love it!

Playing

We are really enjoying our backyard and so are the neighbor kids! Stop by anytime to play with us!

Correction!

Next Thursday! Not today in a week! Us momma's decided that it's going to be too hot with wee little ones so we will do it NEXT thursday. Hopefully everyone reads this in time! Anyone is welcome to come over to our place though instead. We have a kiddy pool set up and a play structure that is in the shade by the afternoon. Just call for directions if you don't know and if you do just come on over!

Adair Park Party

Tomorrow, thursday night, we're having a party! At 5:30 bring your dinner and your family and we'll have a picnic in the park. If you haven't been to Adair park it's a great place with lots to do for kids and adults and it's all close to each other. Hope to see you all there!

Moving in

We are getting settled! There still is so much that needs to be done around the house but at least it's been livable for a few days now. It took Nathan two hours to mow our lawn and there wasn't enough room in our yard depris for it all... We'll have to figure something out. Caelan also flushed a stick down our toilet which is Oh so fun. We still haven't fixed it yet. But Nathan finished the play structure and the kids LOVE it. Caelan climbed up on it the first time and was jumping all around saying, "Thanks for building this, Dad! I love it! I love it!" So I think we will be out there a lot. Also, it's teaching Adelaide to be a great climber. Haven't decided if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

It's just me and Adelaide here for a few days while Nathan and Caelan get to go camping at the Metolius with Nathan's family. I was really hoping to go but I have a client that was due on the 24th and we are still waiting for her to go into labor. So I had to stay home. I go back and forth on being happy and then sad. I love camping and would have really liked to go and see my kids be all dirty and have so much fun. Camping is some of my favorite family memories growing up. Then I think about sleeping on the floor and needing to get up in the middle of the night to go pee and then I'm glad that I had to stay home. I'm also just getting really anxious to be at this birth. It will be fun to get to be at one so close to when I will have mine. It will just remind me of all the feelings that happen. I think that when this one is over than I will really be able to just focus on my baby and what it will be like this time around. All three of our birth experiences will so different and it's fun to think about how this one will happen. I also have been realizing that I really need to start talking to Caelan more about the baby coming. We had a small little baby over here last week and he was asking so many questions. I guess I have just been so busy that I haven't thought about sitting down with him and talking about what it will be like with another baby. I haven't really thought about what it will be like with another baby...

I suppose that's enough of my thoughts for the night. I will be posting pictures of our house soon. I've been putting off taking pictures until things are really clean. I'm not really confident that will ever happen though so maybe I should just do it now.

allergies

This week has been TERRIBLE for allergies. I don't usually have much of a problem at all and i've been miserable. Itchy eyes, stuffy nose, sneezes that hurt my chest. So lame. I'm pretty sure Caelan has allergies too which is no fun.

Things that are fun though....

In our reach

So the house stuff is getting close! We should be signing this week, but I've heard that before. I just can't wait for the kids to have a backyard to run around in! They are outside right now just digging. They've been out there for so long and they are so happy. The only thing is I have to check on them every 30 secs so they don't run away. Caelan is actually I hope it all works out and we can be in our house next weekend. We'll see! This is what we hopefully have to look forward to!
