Well I know it's been awhile since I've posted anything...so I thought I'd better get caught up. A lot has been going on in our family and not all of it good. Some things are just too good to be true here lately. We sold our house and THOUGHT we had found the perfect house. Everything was falling into place. Well...let's just start with the fact that we are NOT buying the house that is posted below. We had the inspection and found so many high dollar items needed fixing and for the price we were paying...we couldn't afford to fix it and didn't really want to either...and the seller's didn't want to fix them, so we said thanks...but no thanks. So that left us with no where to go. We are closing on our house in Fishers today and were supposed to be in the new house on the 20th. What were we going to do? We had no where to store our stuff...no where to stay. All of this happened on my birthday no less. Then we had the appraisal on our house. Did you think that could've went our way? NO! Of course not. Why would we have any good luck in all of this process. So we had to lower the price on our house and take more of hit than we did in the beginning. Anyway....our house is sold and we were packing...but still had no where to go.
We finally found an apartment that we could lease short-term and was reasonable. Finally some good news. We moved in over this past weekend. It's a great apartment in a great area in Carmel. Mason has adjusted really well...the only bad thing about the apartment is that it is on the 3rd floor. The bigger I get, the harder it gets going up all those stairs. So now, we are back in the house hunting process. It's just really frustrating b/c little Molly will be here in June and who knows if we will be in a house by then.
At least we are back to having some sort of normalcy. Mason is growing like a weed and the terrible two's are getting closer and closer. He is getting quite good at throwing a tantrum. I'll try to post some pictures of the little guy soon. As for Molly....she is growing too. I think my belly gets bigger every day. We go back to the doctor on the 19th for my blood sugar test and a checkup. I'll be 28 weeks at that point. It's crazy to think how fast this is all going.
Everyone please keep your fingers crossed that we find a house soon and can be prepared for little Molly's arrival! Until next time.....
I am 29 Weeks and 3 Days today and it is unbelievable how fast time is going. I finally got Molly's bedding ordered this weekend and I'm looking forward to being able to decorate a nursery now that we will have a house and she will have her own room. Things are going pretty good....my feet has started swelling already and I think everyday I wake up bigger, but I guess that just means she is growing!
Daddy gave himself and Mason a haircut tonight. They both look so much better and Mason is definitely more of a little man!!
FINALLY!!! Something has worked in our favor. This is our new house. It is in Michigantown which is a few minutes north of Kirklin right across the street from Kevin's high school. It is the house we originally put ours on the market for and it was still for sale, so we decided it was meant to be. It's a great house and I think we will be very happy there. The inspection went really well so everything is a go. We will probably be moving at the end of April. So thank God we will be settled before little Miss Molly decides to make an appearance!
This is Mammaw and Pappaw Engleman's dog, Pepper. Mason and Pepper get along really well and it's so fun to watch them play together. Pepper thinks he is some big bad dog and the reality is...he is only 6 lbs!
Being silly!
Mason loves his Ming-Ming!
Mason is not so little anymore. It's crazy to think he will be 2 in May. We finally got him a big boy bed and got it put together this weekend. Of course it is Spongebob, but we haven't had him sleep in it yet. I don't think it will be a problem....I just can't seem to let him sleep in it yet. He's growing up too fast!
Kevin decided he would try to cut Mason's hair this weekend, and it went extremely well. Mason did not cry one tear until the very end when he was just done sitting in one spot. He looks even more like Kevin after this cut.
It's crazy to think that we are halfway through this 2nd pregnancy. Molly is quite active these days and it's getting more and more exciting the closer we get to the end.
Mason got his first John Deer hat a couple of weeks ago. He won't wear it for very long, but he is so cute when he does. Mason went to the doctor a couple of weeks ago for his 20 month checkup and he had gained 3 lbs and grew an inch since September. We were very happy b/c we had such a hard time for awhile getting Mason to drink milk and eat good meals. He is such a little man now.
Kevin decided to shave all his hair off this weekend. When I first seen him, I was so shocked I cried. It's funny now, but I just couldn't believe he actually went through with it.
Mason loves dancing with his Daddy. All we have to do is turn on the music and he's begging to be picked up to dance.
GIRL!!!! Can you believe it!?!?! We are so excited! Of course we would have been just as excited about a boy, but to know the odds we were up against, we are just thrilled. This will be the FIRST little girl on the Boone side. Kevin is one of four boys and his older brother has three boys, so you know this little princess is going to be spoiled rotten!! Everything looked great, she measured right on schedule and they told us she was about 10 oz at this point.
Kevin, Mason and I would like to introduce everyone to little Molly Mae. She was quite the mover for our ultrasound, putting on a show. She had the hiccups the entire time which was so cute. She stuck her tongue out a few times and the whole time she was laying with one hand behind her head like she was relaxing in the sun. It was just too cute.
This was another cute thing Molly was doing. She had her legs crossed! She was just totally relaxing and hanging out. Ultrasounds are just so amazing!!
Mason has a new thing....zipping and unzipping things, mainly his pajamas and coat. I've caught him in his bed in the morning just sitting zipping and unzipping. It's amazing what occuppies his time!!!
