Well, we officially have our computer back, and now I can get back to keeping you all up-to-date! We have been more than a little bit busy around here. As some of you know, we have been trying to sell our house since last September. After nine months on the market and no bites, we decided to just stay here and make this house work. The week we decided to take our house off the market, we had 3 parties interested in renting our house. So, we thought, "Hmm... maybe God is trying to tell us something..." We now have a lease with a couple we met through some friends at church. Since we are going to rent our house starting the end of September, we've been searching for another house to move into. We put an offer on a great house a mile from where we live now, but it was rejected. So we are moving a little bit farther out to an older house in a quiet neighborhood that has a great back yard and plenty of room inside. We are excited! We are also more than a little sad to be leaving our friends in this neighborhood. It has always been great to know that there are 3 couples within 2 minutes walking distance from us that we can call on if we need them and vise versa. We will miss you guys, but will still see you often! (After all, we know where you live!) :) Please pray for us as we go through inspections, closing, packing, cleaning, painting and moving. We'll keep you updated!
As for that sweet Livibug, we've been having lots of ups and downs. She is still teething (#8 came in this weekend!) and we are trying to go to one nap a day. This has made for quite a bit of crankiness and temper tantrums. (She must have got her temper from her Daddy; I am sure I never threw such fits! JK... ;)) But Livi has also learned some new words. My favorite is "uh-oh". One day last week she was outside with Paul and she picked up the water hose. At the same time, the air condintioning unit went off. Her eyes got real big and she said, "Uh-oh!" I guess she thought she had broke it! She also has really bonded with her Daddy lately. When she hears the office door open, she says, "Daddy!" and goes running to find him. Sometimes she bangs on the office door and yells for him. It's pretty cute. And she has recently figured out how to help me unload the silverware from the dishwaser into the drawer. No, really, she's helping, not just playing! It is so sweet! I can honestly call her my little helper now. :)
Later this week we will post some pictures. I haven't had a chance to upload them to our computer yet.
