Wow, I feel like it's been FOREVER since I last posted anything about anything. I wonder if anyone ever reads the small amount of things I have to say??? Well, even if there is only one of you out there that decides to stop by this site, I suppose I will talk to you. Thank you for being so faithful!
Last Wednesday Alex and I finally moved into our new house! I must admit that I didn't allow myself to get very excited about moving until it actually happened, but now that it has, I am overjoyed and so excited about our new home! I love waking up in this house and I cannot wait to make it our own! The kids have done amazing with this new transition and have had so much fun exploring their different surroundings. In fact, yesterday I had to stop by our old house to grab a few things and Cale pointed to the house and shook his head "no", only to smile again until we pulled into the driveway of our new house. I guess that means we get a stamp of approval from him. Our new house has at least twice the square footage of our old one and I have been pleasantly surprised to find that we don't have enough stuff to fill this house. I even have bare cabinets, with NOTHING in them, in our kitchen! Not to mention an actual room to do our laundry, rather than having to transfer and fold clothes in the hallway. It is simply marvelous. Dreamy, even. This is the perfect house to have my kids grow up and remember as their first home.
Our best friends coincidently sold their house the very same day we did and just yesterday put a house under contract. I am very excited for them and can't wait to help them move. (moving other people's stuff is far more exciting and less stressful than moving your own, because at the end of the day you can just leave it and don't have the overwhelming task of unpacking it all!)
My parents are coming to visit Memorial Day weekend and I'm excited that they will finally have an actual room and bathroom to themselves. I'm sure that will make their visits a tad more comfortable since they previously had to sleep on an air mattress in the middle of our living room floor. :) For any of you readers that don't live here in Missoula, if you ever find yourself in this beautiful city and don't have a place to stay, our home is always available. :) Seriously.
In other news, Riley has started asking A LOT of questions. "What are you doing?", and "Why?" seem to be her favorite. I think some parents might get annoyed by such inquiries, but I have found myself loving it and thinking that she just might be the smartest kid to ever walk the planet. :) I think it's due to the fact that I've never had the experience of Cale asking me a hundred questions like most all toddlers do, and so now that I have one that is acting like her actual age, I am just amazed at her brilliance. I'm amazed at Cale's brilliance, too...just in different ways. :)
We head to Seattle in a few weeks for another doctor appointment for Cale. If you find yourself with nothing to pray about or just want to add something else to your list, please pray that this doctor will find SOMETHING and that there will be a simple way to treat it. Thank you!
