Life is Crazy

OK, so after the birthday celebrations, we found out we were moving back to WA. I immediately had a million things to do (or at least it felt that way), so I got on the ball calling to schedule doctor's appointments up here and cancel appointments down there, getting Timothy signed up and registered for preschool here and then Brandon and I decided that we wanted to buy a house this time around, so I started looking into that as well.

Since then, Charlotte and I have both been to the doctor for check ups. She came in at 27 pounds, 14 ounces, and 36.25 inches (puts her in 60% for weight and 95% for height), she's perfectly normal and happy. I measured right on track and baby's heartbeat was 150. I got the next two appointments scheduled and have to call and schedule the ultrasound. Timothy got a stomach bug last weekend and ended up at the doctor this week and we now have a referral to a pediatric pulmonologist for a follow up to see if we can take him off the asthma meds.

Timothy had his first day of preschool on Wednesday and his teacher said he did great. He was very excited that they got to play outside and he loves his teacher. Of course, it's hard not to love her, we've known Mrs. Russell for a long time and she was actually his first babysitter when I had to go back to work when he was only 7 weeks old. She has a very special place in our family and I'm very excited that he gets to be in her preschool class now too!!

And I found a great house, called Brandon, he checked it out online and loved it, so I went a couple of weeks ago to look at it and it's wonderful so we decided to go ahead and put an offer down. The seller's accepted the offer, but we have to wait for the DOD to accept it as well since the seller's are in some special Army housing assistance program thing, so they have until October 6th to accept. I'm hoping they will let us know sooner than that, we can get our financing ready and be ready to move in by the time Brandon gets here in mid-October.

On top of all of that, we have a wedding next weekend!! My little sister is getting married and we've all been busy getting ready and working out how we're going to get everything done by then. Brandon flies back up here Wednesday night for the wedding and he'll leave Sunday afternoon so we're all excited to see him again, I really really miss him. Anyway, lots of busy times and stress, but I'm so thankful to be here with family that are more than willing to help out when we need them.

More updates to come....
