What 1 week can produce...


Wow it's been a week, and a busy one at that! First off they've been moving along quickly with our house. They poured the foundation a week ago, framed on Monday and then had the trusses up on Wednesday. We have to be out of our house in about 2 weeks so its all becoming quite the reality.
Next, Dakota started preschool on Monday. She'll be attending 3 days a week this year. She has the same teachers and is in the same classroom. I had a knot in my stomach all day. I don't think it will ever get easy for me not having her here all day. She's totally fine though and loves it!
Then there's Sawyer. I figured with moving in the next couple weeks we should take her crib down and get her used to sleeping on a bed. So we had her just on the crib mattress. Yikes, that was a mistake. She took advantage of her freedom and came to mommy and daddys room a couple of times the first night. Then the following nights she cried and cried when it came to bedtime. So with little patience and lack of sleep, I put the crib back together and we're all readjusting!
Throughout all of this we had a nice visit with my mom's side of the family. Most of her siblings were able to make it for a weekend along with my cousins. AB and T-Tam were her too! It was a nice time with family!

Forms are in!

Yeah, our forms are now in! We drove by our lot today after church to see the first step in the building of our house. I'll periodically post the progress on it.
