Things are coming together. I am not nervous, but I am just praying things go smoothly for us. I have some meals planned for the guys, I have to talk to my mother in law to get the time set up for when she can keep the boys. I am hoping to be home sooner rather than later. I really want to just have it over and done with. I feel so under prepared. I hope that I'm ahead of the game, but I am not really sure how ahead I can be with 2 little boys terrorizing my house on a daily basis. I did a whole house makeover a couple weeks ago when Anna was home to sit with Brody. I have done an AMAZING job keeping it all together since then. It has been a struggle most days, but I am strict with the kids and it's working. Cole has been super great helping me. Brody makes more messes than we can keep up with, but we sure have been trying hard. I just don't want to leave this place in shambles and then come home to a disaster to heal in. I want it all kept together. Is that asking for too much? Lord I hope not!
Today Brody really surprised me. I asked him if he had boogies, cause he's had a runny nose. He walked over, grabbed the wipes box and brought the baby wipes to me to wipe his nose. After I was done I asked him to put the box away, and he did! Then to top it off I handed him the dirty wipe and told him to go throw it in the trash, and he did!!! Smarty pants!!! I am so proud of him. He's still not talking, but he seems to have no problem understanding directions.
Bill's been working his butt off with calving and helping other people calve. He's taking on a new hobby! He's really enjoying being so productive, but we do miss him here at home. Some nights he doesn't get home before midnight. We've learned to make the best of the little moments with him that we get.
We are all fighting this sore throat and cold that's been going around. It sucks. I hope we all get over it ASAP.
Tomorrow we have a guy coming to give us a bid on the plaster work in the new house. We are waiting on the guy to come for the estimate for the bank. Then all that's left is to sign the papers and our new home is OURS!!! This will give me motive to get well soon! I have a lot of projects to do! I want to paint, redo the kitchen and possibly dining room floors, new carpet in the living room. I have to pack our stuff here and move it. I have decided to bring boxes home with me every time I go to town from now on and start packing stuff up. Busy busy busy! I am so excited for all these changes though. I just can't wait!
