We are alive....and no, there's no baby yet

We have now been here in TX for 2 weeks and got our internet finally set back up. :) It was a long few weeks without it...
The girls have enjoyed the downpours that apparently frequent this area. We do have the house generally set up minus a few pictures that have yet to find a home on the wall. We have successfully evicted the mice that were here and have had the house sprayed down for any other creepy crawly creatures that are not welcome in my home. :) The carpets have been cleaned, and although the backyard already looks like a jungle again, we had the backyard cut and trimmed in the hopes of getting it ready for the girls to have a place to play.
The baby's clothes have all been washed and all of the equipment for him set up and cleaned. I have seen the O.B. a few times out here now and look forward to hopefully having our little man home with us soon. The girls talk to him often and like to publicly kiss and caress my belly. Sacrament meetings have been a little embarrassing with little girls fawning over my huge belly. I hope this kid is ready for the parade of affection waiting for him from his two excited little sisters. :) Grace especially is ready for all the rocking and holding although she is still pretty adamant that she will not be helping with diaper changes at all. :)
I'll post pictures soon....We took a lot over our nice, quiet little Easter and will take more of the house for those I know are waiting to see it. Until then, I hope you all have a good week. Hopefully I will have pics of a sweet little boy by my next post.

Packing.....

So, a week from today we should be settling into our new home in Texas. Life is absolutely crazy right now, but it is moving right along. We decided very quickly to try to get moved together before our little man shows up, so off we go! We have a fun weekend with friends ahead and then a busy, busy week. Craig will be driving with Abigail in the moving truck while Grace will be flying with me. We know our new address...e-mail me if you'd like it!

A quick, fun visit with Aunt Tecia, Carter, and Taylee (Thanks again for coming!)






What my girls (and their little buddies) like to do with the boxes...

I'm such a blog slacker!

I'm a total junkie when it comes to keeping up on OTHER people's blogs, but I have been totally neglecting our own blog. We are still alive and just chugging right along with the month. I can't believe April is already just around the corner! We've had a lot of showings with our home, but no offers yet....
Anyway, here we are enjoying Sunday morning with Daddy....yes, I know I am looking a little big and frumpy... :)

Relocating

So, the company that Craig has worked for here has declared bankruptcy and laid everyone off...fun, fun....so we are moving to......TEXAS (Dallas area). It is a big change and will make for a few crazy months getting things all set (anyone want a house in NM?), but we are excited for the job and impending arrival of our little boy (only about 6 weeks left!!) He is definitely growing and has got quite the kick on him. I'm convinced my ribs are being rearranged. :)
The girls are being great helpers and Grace especially will actually beg to put things into boxes....strange child. When we talk about the actual move the tears come, but we know exciting adventures await us in the Lone Star State as well.

No More Polical Stuff.... Here.

Like my friends have done in the past I have created another blog where I post all of the stuff that my Wonderful Wife would prefer not to have here.
