Wow, so much going on!
Well, well, well, boy do we have a lot of new stuff going on right now!
First of all, we have debated over the last several months about moving to a new house. For one thing, I did not want to yet, simply because of the fact that I will have to update some paperwork, but at least it will make me feel like I am doing SOMETHING during this very long wait! The main reason that we would, is because Lily will be starting school next year, so we wanted to be in a good school zone before hand, and with the wait being what it is, we may not make the trip till after then, so we have decided to go ahead and start looking. We went out a few weeks ago and looked at about 10 houses, and would'nt ya know, I liked the first one the best! We really wanted a home with a basement, but did not see many we liked. We have signed a contract on the first one, and should be closing on the 29th. We are not going to put our house on the market until we are moved, so we can fix a couple of things, and mainly so I can dig up and move a lot of my flowers and rose bushes to the new place. Our new house will have six bedrooms, and an office, so I will be able to have a seperate play room instead of my dining room being full of toys!!! And we will have a private retreat for guests at the opposite end of the house from the others, Most excitedly, I will be able to paint and fix up a nursery for our little girl, and yes, it will have a ladybug theme! I just can't wait till I can post pictures of it. I have already ordered a few things, and will make alot of the bedding, and window coverings from some REALLY cute fabric I found.
What else, well, we are getting a new car! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, my 2004 Sienna, but my sister in law needs a van, she has twin boys who are 20 months old, and she is pregnant with (OMG) ANOTHER SET OF TWINS!!! And NO she has never taken any kind of fertility drugs! So, we are selling ours to them really cheap, and buying us a new car, what kind?, a 2006 Sienna! Like I said I love my car, and I would have kept it, only she needs one too!
So, as you see, we are gonna be very busy in the next couple of weeks/months, but hey, what else should we do but wait? Might as well stay busy!

Six bedrooms? Sista, I can't wait to see that joint. I bet it is just beautious. Enjoy decorating until you drop.
I have a patient in our office who is on set #3 of spontaneous twins! All boys! She's getting her tubes tied after this set ;0)
Geez Louise, you don't like to sit around being bored do you? :-) Sounds like all good stuff. And you're a sweetie to do the van swap for your SIL. We're looking crossly at our cars right now trying not to make the move to the mothership (minivan). Not sure how long we can hold out...
Wow!!! You weren't kidding when you said you had a lot going on!!! Sounds like fun!!! I'm sure this will help the wait go by a bit faster for you!
Wow!! Amazing things happening in your family!!!
Congrats on the new house and vehicle!!! Sounds wonderful!!!
Dawn
Wow! That new home sounds great! I would LOVE 6 bedrooms, and I would LOVE twins. Never happened though!
I understand the school zone...we are sorta looking for a home that has gulf access, but I won't budge on the school zones, it seriously limits our options.
Have fun decorating!
Amazing! Congratulations on the new house! That is so exciting. It sounds amazing. I can't wait to see pictures.
Two sets of twins. Wow! Will it be boys or girls this time? Congratulations to them!!
Your wait will go really fast.
Stacy,
They don't know yet if this set is boys, girls, or one of each. I'm hoping at least one girl!
The paperwork for moving wasn't that bad, just another check for $250...But what's $250 in the whole scheme of things, right? I just sigh and sign the check, LOL.
We just finished our update this week.
