On Thursday night and Friday, Blair and I went to Sioux City to begin looking at houses, to get acquainted with the area, and to visit his school. I was impressed with this school! It's a new beautiful building and everyone was so nice and welcoming. The house hunt was a little stressful, and we didn't fall in love with anything yet. I'm guessing we'll have to go back just after the baby is born and look again. We have our house listed so we have a little bit of time. I'm praying that God gives us the courage to be patient, and know that something will come along for us. I was thankful that my mom came and stayed with Tate so the two of us could just go on our own and do a little looking.
Yesterday we had out first house showing so I did a little cleaning and organizing while the boys went to Jenna, Blair's cousin's, tennis meet. I then joined the boys and Mike and Jean Ann for lunch in Ames. It was very nice! That night\ we had to hit up a couple graduations and spent some time outdoors with our neighbors.
Today was amazing. The weather was perfect and we got a lot done around the house and yard. After church, we came home and grilled a nice lunch. Tate napped and Blair and I cleaned out the shed and both vehicles. I did some more things to get ready for the baby. This evening, my neighbors had a diaper and dinner shower for me. It was so nice. Everyone provided a frozen meal and a package of diapers. Our neighbors are wonderful. I'm going to miss this neighborhood! Everyone is so kind and generous! I'm especially thankful for Tricia and Stacia for hosting. The food was awesome too!
AND to top off the evening Dennis and Jan stopped by tonight and bought a new airplane for Tate and a Cabbage Patch Doll for Baby Girl. Anyone who knows me knows that I love Cabbage Patch. I'm so excited for a little girl.
Anyways, we have LOTS to be thankful for. We have so many caring people in our life!
It's Sunday evening, and I'm realizing that I'm getting ready to start my last week at Colo-NESCO Schools. It's sad, but I have to admit that I am ready for summer. It will hit me in the fall when I'm not preparing a classroom!
I snapped a couple pictures at the shower and I also wanted to share pictures of the baby's room.
The Hosts!
