This & That.

BUSY month! It seems things are finally settling down. We finished moving a few weeks ago, but this seemed like the longest and hardest move we've made so far. (Which is saying something, because we've moved A LOT!) It's been stressful and more work than we bargained for. Justin got stuck pulling 24 hour duty TWICE during the moving week. So the big day to move he only had a few hours here and there and then had to go back to work. We got lucky and had some friends helping us out. But still, at this point I'm not moving again until we absolutely have to!

I haven't taken many pictures of our new house yet. I was going to take pictures last Sunday, but the entertainment center decided to fall apart and crash to the floor that morning. I had just gotten up and was in the kitchen making breakfast and heard a heart stopping CRASH! from the living room. I came out and Justin and I just stood there with our mouthes open in disbelief. Here is the before and after:


We really don't know what caused it to collapse. I'm just relieved the kids were upstairs and not in the living room. Nearly everything that was inside broke during the fall. We called our insurance company to see if it would be covered, but no such luck. We got everything cleaned up but I miss the entertainment center. It was only 6 months old and Justin and I really loved it. Justin said he could probably fix it, but I'm afraid of it collapsing again. So we're going to get a new one that doesn't hang on the wall like that.

Tommy starts soccer in a couple weeks. I am so excited for him, he is going to have a blast! The best part, Justin is coaching his team! I can't even tell you how excited I am to take pictures of his games! He is going to be unbelievably cute! I can't believe how big my baby is!

Tristan is quite the little adventurer. He looks for any and all opportunities to climb stuff. He amazes me with all the things he can do. He is so much fun and the boys love to play together. It is so sweet, I just love every minute of it. It still feels weird thinking about a 3rd boy joining in on the wrestling and rough housing!

I'm 34 weeks now and everything is going fine. I'm anxious and uncomfortable but I'm hanging in there. I can't wait to meet little Landon and to have my body my own again. Just thinking of sleeping on my stomach sounds like bliss. It's been a long 8.5 months!

Justin had CQ twice during your moving week?!?! That sucks! Glad you were able to make it work. The great news is the next time you move, it will be back to the states. :)

Sorry about your entertainment center. That's why anything heavy hanging on the walls always makes me nervous. Hope you can find something new you like just as much. Keep me posted on everything! Only a little more time left until Landon gets here!
