Lovin Life!

Braxton is now three weeks old! I have loved every minute I have had with him. It is very weird to think that my due date for him is still a week away. I think I would have been completely miserable at this point if I was still pregnant with him. It is so nice to be able to bend over! I went so early because my blood pressure was staying dangerously high. Plus my body was already stating labor on its own! He was 6lbs and 14oz. 191/4inches long! He is so sweet and such a calm little guy! Chancy had two weeks off work form the day I delivered. What a blessing and enjoyable time that was! He was very helpful! My mom also stayed about 5 days total with us! That was awesome! She did everything for us! I love my mom so much! She is such and awesome woman! I have really enjoyed the time I have had off work. I miss seeing everyone at work but I really love being a stay at home mom while I can. Chancy and I hope to work out something with our work schedules so that one of us will always be home with Braxton. My sister will also be moving in with us and she will only be working 3 days a week so we hope between the three of us, we wont need outside help. For now though I still have 9 more weeks at home! We are very happy with our lives and thank our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ for all they have done for us!

Twenty Four WEEKS!

Our first little guy is a little more then half way done baking! We are so excited! We are very blessed to have had a smooth pregnancy so far! Out little guy is health and well i call him strong! He is starting to get some good kids in through out the day, some of them make me jump. It is very strange having something moving around inside of you all day!
We are still currently looking for a house :(. I am super tired of doing this. We have make 11 offers! Is that not enough?? I am not sure what we need to do. We have tons of questions like.... Are we just not suppose to by a house and Heavenly Father is helping us out by keeping it from happening? Are we suppose to look in Queen Creek? (We have looked everywhere else in the valley except for there.) It is not a very fun process! One good thing that has happened with our house situation is that our crazy neighbor has moved!!! So we have not had that annoying banging on the walls and the crazy phone calls or awkward hellos where he would say something like "I communicate with the human." haha

We are very bless and love life right now! We could not ask for anything else (maybe a house haha). Really though we are happy and are doing well! We have amazing parents and brothers and sisters! What else do you need in life???

Parenthood??!!!!!!!! :)

We are going to be parents! I am currently 11 weeks and still, sick as a dog. I just have enough energy to work my 3 days a week and then the rest I am fighting to get things done are the house. It is weird be tired all the time. It does not help that food has no value to me. I can be starving and still just not want to eat because i know 9 times out of 10 its not going to stay down. I am happy though. I am just grateful to be pregnant. We are very exciting to be parents! It will be a new fun adventure!

Buying a Home

Buying a home is so exciting yet a nightmare! We found the perfect home! Three bedroom two bath. Nothing major to fix just simple cosmetic repairs... ect. We made the offer, they excepted the next day, our inspection went great no major repairs needed. There was a fan on the heating/AC unit that needed repaired but the bank who owns the home agreed to fix it! So awesome right?! Everything went so smoothly! Our ten day inspection period was up! Everything going so smoothly! woohoo! My brother came down for the weekend and he wanted to see the house, so we went to it and all we really could do was look in the windows but because we were not with our realtor. I am looking in the master bedroom window and there in the ceiling is a gigantic whole! It looked like someone had fallen through it! We called our realtor and he met us there and sure enough someone had fallen through it and now there is water leaking on to the carpet and a closet door! Luckily the bank said they would fix it! I just hope they fix everything because the carpet is ruined from insulation sitting on it for who knows how long. It is a mystery who fell through the ceiling. It is sad that whoever did it, did not fess up but oh well at least the bank agreed to fix it! Now our job is to gather every piece of paper that the bank needs. Bills, W2, letters, any and everything! We are almost there! The close date is the end of February! It is the scariest commitment i have made thus far in my life. People at work like to laugh at me when I say this because they think that getting married should have been the scariest commitment I have made, but i always tell them that was the easiest!
