Hacking....

Due to my email getting hacked several times over the last couple of months I have created a new email address.  You may wonder why I'm even telling you this and you may be thinking that you don't really care of my issues with my email personal life.  However, this could effect you in a very serious way! ;)

I am shutting down my old email address and this is important for you to know because I am not sure if I have changed things over correctly with the blog.  You see this blog is connected to that email address.  I am in no ways a genius when it comes to technology so I have spent several hours trying to change things around.  I think I have done it and I think I have this blog set up with a new account but I'm not really going to know until I shut the old down.  I'm probably way more nervous about this than anyone.  I could lose EVERYTHING!!!  All the information and pictures from the last 4 years could be gone.  That is such precious info from our lives.  However, I have faith that I did it right even though technology and I don't agree!  If it does shut it down I will start a new one and once I do I will let everyone know what it is again.

So here is to hoping.....

Boy or Girl?

The above picture is from July when we had our big ultra-sound. (Can't believe I haven't blogged about this yet.)  Anyways like in the past we did not find out if Baby Husby is going to be a boy or girl.  It really does not matter to us either way we just pray that baby will be healthy!  And according to the ultra-sound everything was looking great!! :)

This pregnancy has not been as easy as it was with the girls.  I'm not sure if it is the actual pregnancy or if maybe I'm just getting old and can not handle things as well as I did in my youth. Ha! It really isn't all that different other than I seemed to have more morning sickness with this one than the last two.  Plus with this one the sickness will just hit me at random times even now.  I can be feeling great for weeks and all of a sudden I just get sick and it last any where from 30 minutes to the rest of the day!  I also feel as though I'm a lot bigger this time around.  Actually I know I am bigger this time around because half of my shirts don't fit me anymore!!  However, I refuse to go out and buy any more clothes so people just have to see me in the same thing over and over again.

The awesome thing with this pregnancy is getting to share it and experience it with Grace and Eva!  Grace is so much more aware of what is going on this time than the last!  She loves coming up to me and talking with the baby and feeling the baby move!  There are times the two of them "play" together.  Grace will either lightly push on me and the baby kicks back or the baby is moving and then Grace will push back.  They will do this for a couple minutes at a time and it is so sweet and cute to watch!  Eva understands that I have a baby in me but it wasn't until the last couple weeks that she seems more excited about the baby.  I finally got Eva to stand still long enough to feel the baby move and the look on her face was priceless!!  I wish I had a camera.  Now when she realizes Grace is feeling the baby move she quickly comes over to feel too!

We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of this baby but it seems like the last few months have gone by rather fast so I'm sure the last 7 weeks will go even faster!  If you would like please take a moment and vote on our poll, upper right corner, to tell us what you think we are having!  Mark has thought, from the moment we found out, that we are having another girl, Grace says a boy, Eva says a baby (I think she is 100% correct) and as for myself I dunno.  I go back and forth but most of the time I think girl.  Don't know if that will sway your vote one way or another but figured I would share what we all think! :)

And for a bonus, for you, below are pictures of me through the months! :)

Quick Update

Just a quick update on us.....

We are in the new house and have been for a few days now (almost a week).  Our stuff arrived last Tuesday and they completely unpacked all of the boxes or at least the boxes we told them too.  Wednesday was our first night in the house since Tuesday night I had no clue where any of our stuff was in order to make the beds.  I had a general idea but we were tired and figured we had yet to check out of the hotel so might as well take advantage of it for one more night!  Anyways our first full day and night in the house went pretty smoothly.  The girls were a little unsure about going to sleep but after a night or two they have gotten so much better and are use to the house now!

Since Wednesday we have been working hard on trying to get the house at least organized and things some what put away.  As I type this we basically have the kitchen, baby's room and the garage left.  I am planning on getting the kitchen done today....I hope.  Then it is just small little items that I have to figure out where their new home is going to be.  This house has really worked out great for us and we love it here!

I will try to get on here and update again sometime this week as I'm hopeful I will have my house in order or at least to a point where I don't mind sitting down and relaxing for a little while. :)

And yes I promise to get pictures up soon of the new house!!! :)

Moving Out

We have officially been out of our house now for over a week.  It still seems so strange that we are no longer in Texas and that we are not going back.  Since being in a hotel with out our stuff it sometimes feels like we are just on vacation.  Ok, let's be honest it really only felt that way for maybe the first couple of days and now it just feels like we are never getting out! Hehe...

The actually moving out part was pretty easy for us, at least physically, emotionally was a different story for me anyways.  Mark's company paid for a moving company to come in and pack up all of our belongings and drive them to Washington, including our cars!!












The day they came to pack up everything the girls went over to the Auburg's house for the day which was a huge help cause most of the time I felt like I was in the way!  On Saturday, we kept them home for a couple of hours and then they went next door to the Taylor's.  This way they could be out of the way and yet still be able to see what was happening to all of their things!  For a couple of days, Grace was pretty concerned about what happened to our items but she now understands and is looking forward them arriving at our new home!

The last couple of days went by super fast and felt like we were in a whirl wind most of the time.  Of course we wish we could have had more time to see friends and to just hang out with them.  I refuse to think of it as a "Good-bye" but only of a "I will see you later!"  As the time approached for us to leave the house Grace really started to understand what all of this meant and it was pretty hard for her.  She seems to be doing better but still asks about all of her friends in Texas and will ask me when we are going to go back.  After explaining it to her again she seems to be ok with it.  Of course being able to Skype or face-time our friends there always helps too! :)
