Good news for us!!!!!

First and for most........WE HAVE A CRAWLER!!!! My little dude is crawling and it's so freakin cute! I'll post a video soon! It's so fun to see him getting big but o' so sad too! I just love him to peices and want him to stay little(he's not that little though he weighs 23lbs) forever. I mean he'll be 9 months old next week.....WHAT! I am having a hard time with my babies growing up! I mean I LOVE every stage so I couldn't pick my favorite time I just want time to stop for a moment.Anywho, enough of me being sappy.....now let's get to the good stuff.............
WE BOUGHT A HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YIPPEE!YIPPEE! I am so excited and so proud of my husband for working so hard so that we could buy something! It feels so good to be moving on with this life. We for sure have had our trying times and I am happy that Terry is settled with work and we are settled with a home! It has been so hard on our little family with the moves and job changes. Makes me so grateful I am not a man that has to worry about being happy at work along with supporting the family. Terry does an AMAZING job! I love our new place!! It wont be done getting built until May 28th!!! It's gonna rock! Plus, we'll be a few houses down from our real good friends the Allens! That's even more fun! I'll post pics of our mound of dirt as soon as this ice storm goes away! We're having a bad ice storm. They've cancelled one ward(for church) already and were waiting to hear about ours? All outside of town roads are closed and it's a solid ice ring outside!
All in all it's been an awesome weekend so far. Our friends the Allen's are home,we went to the new P.F. Changs(YUMMY), SONIC opened already,played games with more friends,went to the Temple and tonight ate dinner with more friends! The friend life is finally picking up for us! It's taken awhile but having friends is important!
I hope you have a great Sunday! Love ya!!!!!

cute blog! i hope you're feeling better, the hospital stay sounded scary! can't wait to see your new house! we just finished building ours and moved in a few weeks ago. it was so fun to pick every single thing (tile, carpet, appliances, cabinets, etc) but it is a LOT of decisions! good luck!

Tara said...

Yeah, congratulations. I can't wait to see your dirt and your little man crawling!

Tiffany said...

Well they canceled church today because of the bad,bad weather!

Tiffany said...

Congrats on the purchase. It's kind of a scary thing spending SO much money all at once, but it's so worth it.

Eliza said...

congrats on the canceled church! Really though how fun to have a house. We bought our first home in 05 after being married for 9 years. It was exciting and educational for sure. Now I really know what I need and don't need in my next house. Someday Curtis will design one for us....someday.

Mandy said...

can he design one for us too? congrats on the house tiffany. it will be nice to move in the spring. we always seem to move right in the hottests of summer. EVERYTIME!

Mel said...

We could be having a full on blizzard here and there is no way they would cancel church.
Congrats on the house!

Nichole said...

I can't wait to see the pictures of the new house! Congratulations!!!

Congrats on the house, I am sooo jealous. And we also had church canceled in Germany, to much ice on the street going uphill to the building.

What and What!!! How fun! Congrats! This is what I get for not calling you back! Sorry! We were in a really loud restaurant, and I didn't see it until really late. Then I just forgot :P!
I tried to call today. Maybe I will catch you a little later.
I saw the ice storm on the news!!! That looks so crazy. I am glad I live in Utah...err.

Nicole Cave said...

Sorry to read about your stomach problems. Hope everything is ok now. It's no good when the mom is sick!! Congrats on the house though...that is exciting...and good luck with the crawler...when they start moving it gets even busier!!

Michelle said...

That's so exciting to be getting a new house! It will be fun to paint and decorate things just how you want it.

I've never heard of church being canceled before... then again I haven't been a member for that long.

chanel said...

oh man, a new house is HEAVEN! Congrats!!! May will be here before you know it! And a little crawler- yeah little maybe not, my two year old is 24 pounds! You have a solid boy there! :)

Your weekend sounds so FUN! Friends are very very important when you're away from home!!!

Michelle said...

Congrats Tiff!! I didn't even know you guys were looking right now, but that is so exciting! Where is it going to be?

Matt and Amanda said...

Congratulations on the house! That is awesome! That is so cool that your little guy is the same age and about the same weight as my baby! She is not really crawling though..scooting or something. I agree, I wish I could find a way to freeze my kids in these fun stages for a little longer. They are so sweet. I have found that each new stage is fun even though I just LOVE babies!
