Pumpkin Patch

Our internet connection is so bad that I can't get videos longer than 10 seconds to upload directly to our blog. I had to do the smilebox thing again. It is so much easier that way, but the pics and video are lower quality. Oh well, you get the idea! (The last 3 are videos and take a bit to load, but they're of Madeline singing and telling about ABC sounds!)

Silly Girl

As I sat here talking to myself trying to update our background Madeline just announced, "OUR BLOG IS NOW A BLOG!!!" and she was really happy. Neither of us have any idea what that means, but it is truly exciting.

What's up?

Well, I haven't summarized our trip, but it was all I could do to pull together a few pictures (and we've been home for a month). We have been busy searching for a house. It was a difficult search! We looked at 25 different houses and on the 25th house we found exactly what we were looking for. It is a 4 bed 2.5 bath. We love this house! The owners just updated the kitchen and the bathrooms are great. It has an unfinished basement so if we happen to be here a long time we will have the option to finish it. We have an inspection this Saturday morning (don't worry, we'll be home for conference). I think we'll have to do a little painting inside, but that is by choice and will be a little bit fun!
Also, we will be finding out if we are having a boy or a girl on October 13th. I am 23 weeks now and we could technically have found out by now, but the way the appointments were scheduled it is a little late. Madeline can only think of the baby being a girl (all of her dolls are girls I guess) so if I suggest that "maybe it is a boy," she replies, "it's NOT a boy, maybe it's a girl." So, either she's a good guesser, or she's in for a big surprise!
Life is going well here, but just as we begin to get used to one area of Cincinnati we go and buy a house 25 min away (with a better commute for Raymey) and we have to start all over! I think that if we have to start over sometime, this is the time to do it. This should be the last move for a while!!!!

For Raymey

There you go. Now put a different picture on your work computer!!!

Vacation 2

The two of us in Mexico without Madeline. It was fun, but we REALLY missed her!

Vacation 1

These are the highlights (what we have pictures of) of our trip to Utah, Colorado, Canada, Oregon, and Washington. I can't get rid of the crazy words without messing up the link!
