We're still alive

Wow. I cannot believe that a month from Tuesday is my due date. I was thinking the other day that the date was the sixth or seventh of the month... only to find that it was tax day.

Things have been incredibly busy for us as we prepare to move into our house. We do have some photos, but they're still on my camera, and the cord is packed away, so it'll be awhile until they're uploaded.

We have been painting and painting and repairing and painting some more. Boy, things look so different than just a couple of weeks ago. It's crazy how a little (okay, really it was a lot of) paint can make a big difference in the look of a home. Every spare waking moment is spent working on the house, preparing for moving day. We're still not done, but I like to think we're getting closer?

We have been blessed to have many people offer to help. Our families have been so great at coming up to help, and we've had friends and co workers come over... we are surrounded by lovely people. We are SO thankful that they've sacrificed so that our house can get done in time for us to move. Praise God for willing hands and feet, yes?

So please forgive my absence. I anticipate even longer quiet spells once baby is here. :) Happy spring to you all and hope you had a lovely Easter.

Can't wait to see pictures! And I'm so glad people are helping you guys get settled into the new house before baby gets here. What an incredible blessing. :)

Can't wait to see pictures!! Especially since it appears we'll never be able to head up there!! Can't travel very well with the kids at these ages right now...not for a go-and-return one-day trip, anyway. We're saving that torture for our trip to MD in July right now.
