Finally a Picture!

We went to see Mrs. Senecal to get some pictures of Logan, since we hadn't had any done since Logan was 8 months. Also, it allows me to show off a picture here and there! So, we STILL have not gotten an official closing date from the bank. I was planning on moving tomorrow. I even had help lined up to spend the night. Oh well. As frusterating as it is, it's supposed to snow 3-6 inches from here to Buffalo and I would have to drive that whole way. I'd rather not. Thank you Mrs. Senecal for the pictures!

Update!

As of today the bank told Andrew that we could close the 21st or 22nd!

(I am Brownie, and I approve this message.)

Little Stuff

So we are still here 11 days after we were supposed to close. We had bank issues, but tried through another mortgage company and yesterday we got our mortgage commitment! So, Andrew just needs to fax our latest bank statement tomorrow and we will get a closing date! It's December 29th right now but they will give us a more official one. Of course I will take and post pictures when we move (before and after). I just can't promise that I'll do it right away. I am so ready to move, I don't even mind that we might have to tear down our Christmas tree and presents and put it all back up again. :) There's not really anything interesting going on here. Just waiting. I had to take Logan to my doctor's appointment yesterday. That was interesting. They took my blood pressure and said it was high. But then they realized I was just trying to keep a busy boy out of trouble while trying to use the bathroom, so they took it again before I left, and it was fine. They also said my sugar was high. So, I had to take Logan with me to get a blood sample. (fun) Some good news from that appointment is that I haven't gained as much weight as I thought I did! After we moved into my parents I have been eating lots of food I shouldn't, so I was scared to look at the scale. My goal for the whole pregnancy was no more than 30 lbs, but at my appointment last month I was at 27 lbs. I had given up hope lol. I thought for sure I had gained way more than 30 by now, but according to their scale, (and after a big unhealthy breakfast, I might add) I'm only at 31 lbs! Ha! There's still hope. I'm 32 1/2 weeks, so I just need to be good. I made brownies with no flour or sugar and that's my treat because it's chocolaty and not unhealthy. Oh, and something even better is that Andrew doesn't like them so he won't eat them all! They're gluten-free, though, so I share with Logan for a treat. Logan and I think they're really yummy. So Logan's had a huge fish tank in his room since he came home from the hospital and we sold it about a week before we moved out of our house. So, he did not sleep through the night at all after it left. Just a few days before he started getting a cold, which didn't help with the sleeping through the night. When we moved into my parents' house we shared a room with Logan and somebody, who shall remain nameless (but it's not me), snores really loud, and he still couldn't sleep. After my parents left for Florida, Logan inherited Abbey's room and a humidifier. He sleeps through now about two out of three nights, so I'm thinking Logan might get a new fish tank for Christmas :) So, I felt like I needed to type up a new post, but that's as exciting as it gets today.

Sigh of relief

I finally feel like a load of stress has been removed! Here were the circumstances: The buyers of our house had to close by the 13th or they'd lose their mortgage rate. Andrew is going to be in Ohio the 12th - 14th. We had to sign the papers no later than the 9th. (Saturday is for hunting, of course) We still didn't have mortgage commitment. I'm not supposed to pack until we have mortgage commitment. Today is the 5th. See my stress? :) Then my wonderful husband takes it away wih one phone call. We have mortgage commitment, we're signing papers the 9th, and he's taking that day off of work. :) Yay. I love him.

Moving!

So even though we've already had a deal not work out, I am confident enough to type up a post about it.

This is a current picture of our new house! (from the website) The target closing date is November 30th. We are moving out toward Buffalo because Andrew likes spending time with his family. (Which is a good thing, of course.) More details and pictures to come when it becomes more official and maybe when I get more opportunity to find internet. :) Oh, and by the way, baby boy is moving so much! I don't remember Logan moving this much at this point already! If you ask Logan who's in there he says, "bru-drr". It's so cute! He was even kissing my belly the other day.

New Post!

Okay so there's a lot that's diffrent since my last post. In case you didn't notice, we got rid of our internet service. We put our house up for sale, and it's sold already! We found a house we like and they accepted our offer! Our "target" closing date is November 2nd. I am not expecting that day. I've learned from last time. :) After we get moved and settled I will hopefully look into getting internet. I am having serious Pintrest withdrawls. Baby is no longer the size of a poppy seed. Abbey was shocked a few weeks ago when I told her how big it was. She thought it was still as tiny as my last post. I am 21 weeks already now, and we are having a boy! (I'm sure the news has aleady spread to everyone, but I'm still excited.) So, now I must go check pintrest again, because I miss it.

Poppy seed? What's that mean?

So I've been distracted taking care of my baby boy these last few weeks. He's been so busy. He's still too chicken to walk, but gets around really good holding on to furniture. What's the rush, right? :) He definately loves all things boy, already. He's got a sandbox in the back yard that gets lots of use, and a swimming pool, that he's not too sure of yet. He fell in once and he still doesn't trust it. :) We went swimming in the Randall's big pool on Memorial Day and he was happy as long as Momma or Daddy was holding him tight. He is definately turning into a Daddy's boy. First thing he says when he wakes up is "Dod-dy! Dod-dy!" And every bark he hears is responded by "Dog-gy! Dog-gy!" So if we walk by and he calls you daddy or doggy, don't take offense. Those are his favorite words. :) Oh yes, poppy seed... well, that's about how big our baby is right now. :D (insert huge smile) Baby #2 will be here sometime in the winter/early next year. We're quite excited. Last time Andrew and I were able to keep it a secret for almost 2 whole days. We even attended a church function AND church during those two days! This time, we told the whole family within 5 minutes. Lol. Logan's excited, too. He's been telling me he needs someone to play with. :) So I don't know what else i could possibly write that could top that, today.
