The Move Is Almost Over

Well, another crazy weekend is behind us and we are closer to being fully moved into the new house.

Friday we had an Occupational Therapist give Ethan an evaluation so we can get him started on weekly OT sessions. He did pretty good and she told us he was at about a 9-12 month age as far as what he can do. We're pretty happy with it and are just excited to get the therapy started.

Saturday we had Jack's t-ball game and then back to moving into the new house. We picked up our new rug for the keeping room and are really happy with the way it looks in the room. It won't be long before it's covered in dog hair!!!

We brought the dogs over this weekend to check out the new place and they were so happy to finally see where we've been going 10 times every weekend. Our street has dogs in about every house and they all roam free so it's nice to have more dogs in the neighborhood that don't care if our dogs run up to the them to say hi. In one of the backyards there is a bush that all the dogs seem to play in. they call it the doggy clubhouse.
This is a view of the keeping room from the kitchen and the boys are happily playing, getting used to the new digs.

As you can see, the old house is now pretty empty. We hope to be sleeping in the new place next weekend.

Ethan and Jack have been having a blast playing with all the packing paper.





Tomorrow is another busy day with an eye appointment for Ethan in the morning and a make-up t-ball game for Jack in the evening.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i...

Busy week

It's been a busy week with little things here and there, which is getting me ready for the busy summer ahead of us with gymnastics, swimming and all Ethan's therapies. Whew, I need a break from just thinking about it. We did have a nice walk down to our community playground this afternoon. Ethan couldn't stop laughing on the swings and the slide (he couldn't get enough of the slide) and Jack made a little friend! Great afternoon. Speaking of therapies, Ethan starts his occupational therapy next week and I'm so excited. We got the therapy notes back from his evaluation and, while I'm not positive on how I'm reading it, the scores say from poor to very poor. We have been very lucky that Ethan hasn't had any medical issues and so far he seems to be doing well with responding to his therapies, so I really want to make sure he has the best of everything. Today has just made me a little blue thinking about Ethan not being 100% of what other kids are and ...
