We're on the move...

We close tomorrow morning on our house! And start moving our things immediately! Well, we are going to bug bomb the new place first before we start bringing our boxes over to make sure the ants don't make a new home in our new home! Then we will start moving things!

My dad is going to help us on Wednesday and is brining his truck, trailor and a couple of dolly's! Should help quite a bit! Yay!

I was in a wedding this past weekend and I made my goal of fitting into the dress! I have lost 35 pounds so far and I feel great! I plan to continue my diet and would like to lose an additional 15-20 pounds. Although after this past weekend I might be set back a few pounds due to the amount of food and alcohol I consumed! haha! The wedding was beautiful and we had a great time! Here are us girls going Charlie's Angel Style:

The boys are getting bigger all the time. It is so hard to believe that Camden will be 5 months old then end of this month! Crazy! Decovin is talking in sentences for the most part and potty training is slow going but it is going...he has gone poop and pee on the potty several times now. He still isn't asking to go necessarily (a few times) but he is at least getting used to sitting on the toilet. It is going to be a process I feel. :-) Anyway...that is all that has been going on lately.

Will let you all know when we get internet access and all that jazz. This could be it for awhile. Hope to hear from you all soon!

And they're off!

Well, mom and dad decided very last minute to get away for a week. Dad had some vacation to burn and he deserved it as he has been working that outage for like 2 months at least (7 days a week/10 hours a day or more!!). So they packed up their car and headed west to Wyoming! They are going to go visit my dad's Uncle John Sackman. They will have a good time and I think they are so far...mom is having fun taking pics with her cell phone and texting them to Christy & I. It is cute. They seem to be more relaxed already...with the exception of mom forgetting her bathroom bag with all her meds in it! Oops! We were going to overnight it but the pharmacy was able to hook her up at a pharmacy out there so she was able to get by on that and just purchase the other toiletry items she needed.

Christy is staying at the house with me so the boys and I aren't alone at night, etc. Not that I am scared but I like the company.

We made lunch today, pork chops, corn on the cob, potatoes, potato salad, & beans! I grilled the pork chops and Christy got the other stuff ready. It was DELICIOUS! I have a thing for grilling! I can't get enough of it. So much so, that I even moved dad's grill up by the house again so I don't have to travel so far to use it! :-)

Other than that, nothing much new to report, just felt like updating. OH, well, Decovin has now peed in the potty a few times! Now, if I could just get him to tell me when he needs to poop, we will be on a roll! I need to get in the habit of asking him if he needs to go and pop him on the toilet every hour or so! Just gets tiresome and annoying with diapers...need to go purchase some pull-ups I think. Easier. I'm all about easier. haha!

Love to all! Can't wait for some new updates!

Still living with my parents

Nothing much has changed since the last time I blogged. I'm still at mom & dads and we are still hoping to close on the house by the 30th of June.

There is a crack in the foundation that the sellers have to get fixed first. We will also have to re-roof it sometime this fall. (This is also why we negotiated with the price.) So there are some things that will need to get fixed but we can do most of it as we go and as we can afford it. (we hope anyway) :-)

Camden is now eating cereal and I just started him on veggies last night. So far so good. I think he is getting a bit constipated and I need to go get him some Karo syrup to put in his bottle. Other than that, he is doing great with eating and is so much better natured than his first two months of life. His colic is effectively gone. Yay! He can still scream and make your ears bleed but it doesn't last very long! :-) He also went to the doctor last Friday (May 30th) for his well baby check up and his shots. He is doing great and now measures 26 1/2" long and 16.2 lbs. He is right in the 50th percentile...so right on track. :-)

Decovin is now obsessed with Toy Story. It is the only movie so far that we can put in and he will watch about 90% with no problem. It is hysterical to watch him watch a movie! He's getting so big! Hard to believe he will be 2 1/2 next month! Crazy!

Well, that is all that is new. Look forward to hearing from all of you!
