Wow! This blog layout is looking very Christmas-y. But I like it!

We made a purchase offer on the house today!!!

Please pray that they accept it and our house sells in a snap! Or that we can accept it if God closes the doors on this.

Oy! Sorting and packing 7 years worth of stuff is a little scary to think about.

"Mommy, mommy!

Listen, listen!

Knock, knock, who's there.

Me, me who. Me funny!"

I keep wanting to blog, but then get bored halfway through and give up.

How is it that I'm super busy, but have nothing interesting to report? Such is the life of a mom sometimes I guess.

The last 2 days this is where I've stuck Xavier so that I can finish Leia's schoolwork with her.

I know! He looks completely upset with his predicament, huh? He's a killer Baby Rocker!

This sweet little angel and his buddy Paulie have taken to peeling the fresh wallpaper off the boys' bedroom walls during nap time.

It makes me want to do this:

The End

Week: 8

See what I mean? This girl is growing up SO stinkin' fast!

The look daddy got when he was making crazy noises at Sho to get her to smile.

I can't get enough of this girl!

Wordless Wednesday

trying not to be SO! STINKIN'! EXCITED!

We're looking at a house! It's huge and the location is perfect, as well as the price! I feel like this house has been brought to us by God. Which is completely amazing!

A woman at our church came to me, out of the blue, a couple weeks ago and asked if we were looking for a larger house. We really weren't. But she told me about her mother-in-law's house. So I took the information to Marc, not really expecting that he would even consider it. A few days past and he didn't say a word about it, so I figured he didn't feel we should look into it. Then 2 days later he was talking to my parents about it all excited like. We found out the location and did a drive by! It's sort of perfect (well at least from the outside). It definitely has colonial vibes which I LOVE. It has tons of space, and a good sized yard. We're going to go and look at the inside on either Friday or Saturday, and I'm trying SO hard not to get my hopes up.

Get this: it has enough rooms so that none of my kids would have to share!!! Xavier's prayer may be getting answered!

I've been praying fervently that God would make whether or not we should buy it abundantly clear and work out every little detail. Because we don't know how to sell a house or really even buy one. The Gingerbread House kind of just fell into our laps 7 years ago in a completely unconventional way. But that's another story for an another day.

If you would, please pray for us as we decide what to do. And, of course, stay tuned!

P.S. We haven't told our kids about how seriously we're looking at it yet. But Xavier is on to us, because he's "not deaf and blind mom!" Ha! I love that kid!
