trying to think of a title for this one! :-)

Eric just wanted to say that he is very excited about something. Lord willing, he will be having a little brother or a little sister. :-) !!!

Today I took a pregnancy test and ........ (drum roll... :-) it came out positive!
I have a doctor appointment on Monday. Tomorrow we are moving and I plan to take it easy.

hot summer day

I took Eric to the park today. There is a wading pool and it was very crowded. At first Eric didn't know what to think. But then he put his foot in and wanted to get in and join all the other kids. They made it look like so much fun. Pretty soon, he was walking all around the pool while holding on to my hand of course.

I'm so glad I got out today. It was a beautiful day and I really needed a break from packing.

On to something new

Eric told me to stop complaining and to stop being such a downer. :-) (from the last post)

Today he handed me a book and got into my lap. It was the first time he has done that. He acted content and was pointing to the pictures and made some cute sounds like he's really trying to say Stegosaurus (dinosaur book). It was so cute. Usually, he just closes the book when I try to read to him.

The packing is coming along. I have been trying to pack a few boxes each night after Eric goes to bed.
The move in date is next weekend. We are supposed to sign the papers for the loan this Friday and the closing date is Monday.

I don't understand

This post may contain some venting and other things........................................

Eric has a mystery rash and a fever that came out of nowhere. What I don't understand is why now? You know how when you're a mom and when your kids get sick and how your life stops? Well, the problem is that I don't have time for my life to stop. I have moving boxes in my living room and dining room and and dishes on the kitchen counter....... and I have a wonderful husband who loves his job (too much). Oops, did I just say that on my blog? Well, I need to hide some of my feelings but I can't keep everything to myself. If I keep things bottled up and to myself, I will explode.
Well, I know that I have to be careful what I say and how I say it. But I have a lot of things going on right now in my life. I am feeling frustrated with the fact that Eric is sick now and I have already packed the parenting/health books last week. I am frustrated that my husband works late a lot. I am overwhelmed because of the whole first time home buyer, moving thing. It's our first house and there are a few unknowns about it. I have such a hard time with unknowns. It makes me uneasy not knowing how something is going to turn out.

I guess I need to go now. Eric needs to practice his typing and I'm tying up the computer. :-)

Here's a picture of Hailey

Here is Reada and her daughter Hailey. There are more pictures on Facebook if anyone is interested. :-)

I'm an Aunt!

Haley Charlotte Lee was born this morning at around 6:30am to Tim and Reada. She weighed 6lbs 3oz 19 inches long. All 3 of them are doing well.
Congratulations to the new parents!

niece is coming soon!

I just found out that my sister-in-law Reada is in labor! Whoohoo! Her and my brother, Tim went to the hospital around 8pm tonight.

I'll keep you all posted when I find out more.

beautiful double wedding

Here are the few pictures I took at the double wedding that we went to a few weeks ago. David's brother Tim got married and his bride, Elizabeth's sister got married. What a day it was. I was busy most of the day taking care of Eric. David was a groomsman so I had my hands full. That explains the limited amount of pictures.

Since we've gotten back, I've basically hit the ground running. We have a few weeks to get packed and ready to move. I can hardly believe it's June already. Where did the time go?

Prayer request:
Please pray for our family. My father-in-law had a serious accident a few weeks ago. He fell and broke his back. He is in the hospital. Pray for healing for him.
Thanks.
