New Apartment

We have been in the new place for a week now! I can't believe it. I will post some pictures of move in day and then I will make a post later this week of how the house looks now. I have gotten time to unpack things and get decorations up. I still need Brian to hang up a lot of things but he isn't feeling like doing it after he gets home so I will wait until he isn't on call and has some time to hang up all the things I need hung up.

The Spare bathroom

The Baby's room

Our room

Our bathroom and walk in closet

This is what it looks like when you walk in the door (our small kitchen) oh and I love the Fire place!!

I was a little sad on the 9th because that is the day we closed on our first home. I no longer live in the small little town that I grew up in. I now live in the BIG city. I am still trying to get used to the driving around in the city because I am used to driving in my small town but I am working on it. I hope to be used to it by the time the baby comes in December.

I will be posting a lot more pictures with updated decor soon!

Time to get packing

Well we got our house sold....Well we close on it on October 10th (our 4th wedding anniversary.) The couple who bought it are a lovely young couple and I think they are going to enjoy the place. I am thinking about doing something special for the people moving in and leaving a little treat for them when we leave. Maybe a nice bottle of wine and a little note or something like that.

Because we got our house sold it was time for us to look for a place. Oh the joys of looking for a place to rent for a year or so until we are ready to buy another home. We decided on an apartment today! I am happy with the place and I think it will be a great place for us to bring a baby home to.

I have started packing and let me tell you that is not a fun job. I can't believe how much stuff we have collected in the past 4 years since we have moved in. I have all the stuff packed that we don't use everyday and our house is looking pretty sad. Just a lot of bare walls and lots and lots of boxes and totes.

We get to move into our new apartment on October 5th so I will post some pictures when we get moved!!

Where have I been????

I know I have not posted in a long time. I have had a lot going on and will catch you up on everything.

First off I am 21weeks and 1 day pregnant today!! I did know I was pregnant the last time I posted but I didn't want to come out just yet because we waited until we were 13 weeks to tell anyone! We did IVF and were successful on the first try. I am feeling very lucky for this. We have been through a lot of ups and downs and it is not over for us but at this moment I am lucky and very happy to be pregnant.

Secondly I quit my job. Both Brian and I decided that I didn't need the extra stress. My boss was super understanding to my surprise. He was happy for me and I left on good terms. I have even helped him out when he went on vacation and when he needed an extra hand.

Third Brian got a promotion of sorts. This means we are putting our house on the market and we are moving to Des Moines! I am so excited for this opportunity. Now we just need someone to buy our house in our small little town. This may be a little harder than we expected but I have faith that the right person will come along.

I do plan on keeping up on my blog and now that I am home more I will have more time to post.

Thank You all for sticking around!
