Wow

i can't believe that it's been nearly 3 months since i last posted. YIKES, bad mommy blogger. Well so much has been going on, i don't even know where to start. since my last post we started looking for a new home to buy, we thought it was a great time to start looking and before prices start going up, along with interest rates, we wanted to look for a house in a great school district and a tad bigger for our family. We found a builder who was building it's last inventory homes and it really was exactly what we were looking for. On father's day we signed the papers and bought a new home. Tell me that's not the best father's day gift ever!

Since we bought in such an early stage of the building process we were able to pick out all our own colors, tile, lighting, cabinets and counter tops. We had our design center appointment in early july and we had so much fun. We were overwhelmed by all the choices and upgrades that we had to go through. it took us over 5 hours to go through all the items. we are extremely happy with all we were able to get and can't wait to see the final product. the house should be done in early December. We are praying that the weather will hold out a bit and give them time to get the house built, the hurricane that just went past us did delay them some already.

In july we got a family portrait, i will be uploading a few of those pictures for you to see, i am glad we were able to get a few great shot, it is really difficult to get all three smiling at once, but we did it.

In august the kids started back to school. over the summer they went to a preschool that only had a few kids attending. i switched them all over to a new school, the girls go 2 days a week, nate goes 4 days a week. so far they are all really liking their new classes. the girls are in the same class and of course are a big hit. Nate has a very full day including, math, reading and Spanish. I'll add pictures of their back to school day soon.
