When I get behind in something, like this blog for example, it is hard to get caught up and so daunting in fact that I even find myself not catching up because there’s so much to catch up on. \u00a0So, it has been hard to write this blog post and you must forgive me for bad grammar, poor writing and poorly edited photos. \u00a0On that note, here’s what’s been going on!<\/p>\n

We closed on the Amarillo house on June 19 and are now in the process of looking for a home to buy here in Houston! \u00a0A month ago I wrote a post about how I wanted to sell our house quickly and find a home here with ease and be all ready for baby girl in September. \u00a0At the time I thought it was just wishful thinking. \u00a0It is amazing to me how God works things out, even during those times of doubt. \u00a0We closed on the Amarillo house 2 weeks after we signed the contract and are close (hopefully) to signing a contract on a home here and should be able to move in by early to mid August! \u00a0Now, lots of things still need to fall in place for that to really and truly happen, but our situation is not looking like it did a month ago and we don’t have two house payments! \u00a0Our landlord has even agreed to let us out of our lease a little early so that we can move if we end up closing on a house. \u00a0God is really and truly and always perfectly good. \u00a0Even if it all falls apart, I know that’s still true.<\/p>\n

We’re looking forward to settling down. \u00a0It’s been hard to find a church here since we haven’t known where we were going to be living permanently. \u00a0If we went to a church near our rent house, that would mean a 30-45 minute drive to church from Sugar Land, where we’re hoping to move. \u00a0Maybe our church in Amarillo spoiled us, but we want to be able to not only have a place to go on Sunday mornings, but friends who we can get together with and share our lives with all the time. \u00a0I will be forever grateful for our church in Amarillo for \u00a0providing us with such an amazing small group who was always there for each other. \u00a0We’ve visited a couple churches in Sugar Land, but are still looking.<\/p>\n

Today I am 30 weeks along, so we are well into the third trimester with only about 10 weeks to go! \u00a0Carson came to the doctor with me last week and did well considering we were there for 2 hours. \u00a0I was measuring small so she had me get a quick sonogram to make sure baby girl was growing well, and baby girl is in the 58% so we’re in good shape. \u00a0I’m still feeling ok and haven’t yet started to feel super tired or worn out. \u00a0I’m looking into girly crib bedding and absolutely hate that they can charge so much for such a small amount of material! \u00a0I talked with my mom about it and she offered a bunch of white eyelet fabric that she used as curtains in the room Sarah and I shared as little girls. \u00a0I’d love to be able to get a skirt and bumper out of some of the fabric and be able to tell our daughter that the same fabric was in mommy’s room as a little girl. \u00a0I love nostalgia.<\/p>\n

If we move to a new house, we’ll be doing it at the beginning of August. \u00a0In Houston. \u00a0Anyone interested in sweating buckets and being completely miserable can help us out! \u00a0I promise to provide sustenance for those kind and brave enough to take on the challenge.<\/p>\n
