Update!!!

Wow! Its been way to long since i wrote a blog! So much has been going on there just hasnt been time...!!

Im currently 28.5 weeks pregnant.. (and yes that .5 matters) I've been feeling great! and just cant wait to meet our little man...
We've decided on a name ... it will be KAMDEN WAYNE.. we are all very excited for him especially Rheagan who asks daily when she can hold her baby boy.









 Here's my last belly shot at about 27 weeks... its noticeable some days :)



We've been very busy working on the nursery.. i found an old tailgate, that we re finished in orange to hang in the nursery. It matches his truck/car fabric perfectly! And my mom and I painted (with non-toxic non-VOC paint) in his nursery
 Derek's been busy working on the yard... here's our new lawn in the front yard!!!
 And pavers on the new patio he has been putting in :) Once this is done well be getting grass in the back as well!!!
 Kamden's nursery was created off this great fabric I found!



Miss Rheagan has been very busy... swimming and riding her bike! Also, loving every minute of preschool, where she is learning tons... especially new songs.. we now know ABC's, Old MacDonald, 5 Monkeys jumping on the bed and my favorite Twinkle Twinkle Little Star...
 Pics from her first day of school


Shes also been busy with her 2 new pets.. well ones Daddys... But Rhea named them both

Meet Minnie Mouse the goldfish
 And... Daisy Duck the rosey boa...(mommys not a fan) this one stays in the garage


All in all were having a very busy but fun summer!!! Lots of Dr appts and one last 4D ultrasound coming up.. so well keep you posted on baby Kamden and any changes in our family!!!

HUGE update

Well...we decided to make a decision to offer on another home in the same community as Coast Oak Trail house...when we saw a 4 bedroom traditional sale come up last Monday. Not hearing any possible close date on coast oak was getting annoying..not even the VA had an idea. So our realtor got an offer together for us on a house that had been on the market 11 days..
We offered on Monday night..just wondering... and Tuesday morning we got a response... "there is renters in the house that need notice, are you okay with closing March 1st instead of 30 days..." This only made it 42 days instead.. Our realtor took us up to take a look at this new house and to do one more look thru Coast Oak before we made our final decision.

We loved the new house Evening Primrose Trail.. the finishes were nicer, the house was 400 sq ft bigger..and just seemed more open and friendlier.. So Friday we signed our cancellation docs with Coast Oak and opened our new escrow for Evening Primrose. Our escrow date is March 1st unless the renters move out sooner, which sounds like there trying to.  Were very excited to finally have a move date verse the VA who was unsure when it would be resolved...

Everything happened so quickly, but this was truly meant to happen. The selling realtor was in Mexico, and NEVER receives emails due to service.. but the one from our realtor came thru..she said send the offer to the home owner and she will decide.. What are the chances our email gets in on a perfect house for us :)

Sorry for taking a week to update everyone..its been a whirlwind of events :)

Still Waiting....

Gosh at this rate I feel like there is never going to be a blog letting you guys know we have moved into our house..


Were still waiting on the VA to correct the deed title issue.. as of last wednesday Jan 2.. they had finished the paperwork and now were waiting for it to record... come on VA this house has been sitting empty for over a year now.. and they wont let us rent it.. no wonder the government is broke.. at least bring in some money with all these empty houses being rented by the buyers while you finish up your unorganized paper mess!



Were back at Dereks parents house.. dogs and fish and all lol. Hoping for good news this week so we can move this weekend. Besides that everythings the same and doing well...

Miss Rheagan has quiet the vocabulary now..and loves singing her ABC's loudly.. or singing in general for that matter..she will make a song up about anything lol.

Lets keep our fingers crossed for another positive update blog this week about us finally moving.. believe me well have one big party once we move!!!
