It's getting closer

We are only 37 days away from moving into our new house! I still feels like someone should pinch me, am I still dreaming?. Once again I just have to say how blessed we are!! As far as I can tell, no other condos have sold in here where we live. Crazy! Aside from the house stuff, I had a wonderful mother's day...I was able to see both sets of parents, my sister and her fam and Scott's grandma from Arizona, his aunt and uncle and his cousin! We met in Bellevue at the Cheescake factory...yummy!! Oh and I was able to go shop at Crate and Barrel. Okay so I didn't buy anything, but I saw a lot of cool stuff. Anyhow, it was a really nice day. I hope eveyone had a great mother's day as well. :)

Here is a pic of our new house.

Update..

So we sold our condo yesterday...on paper anyway. We are going to be closing June 16th!! So exciting. God has been so good through this whole thing, and answering prayers in better ways than I can imagine. Ok so that is our house update...more house pics to come.

Kelly is 6 months old now and is doing wonderful. She is pretty off the charts for weight at 21.8 and her height is 90% on the growth chart. I am so blessed for her great health so far. She is learning to eat new foods and sit up and play. Fun stuff.

Our future house....Mabye!

Here is a picture of our future house. We will see. There is a really good chance we may get an offer this weekend. Please pray for that! Thank you. :)

Psalm 27:14

"Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."

Easter Fun

We had a really nice Easter with the family. It was also my dad's birthday, so it was fun to have almost everyone there. We missed you Jen and Clint! Kelly got to wear her Easter dress.

Cheap entertainment

Kelly really likes to ride in the laundry basket. And the best part about it, is that it's free!!! I love cheap entertainment. :) In other news we have have a person intersted in our condo. I really hope they decide they like it enough to give us an offer. Let's pray so. Anyhow, LOST is on tonight and that's exciting. Have a good night.

What happend to Maksim?

OK, no not the magazine(Maxim)....I'm talking about Maksim the dancer. Sad day he is no longer on dancing with the stars. :((( Why, Why! Anyhow, life is pretty much going as planned ok no that is not true because you cannot plan life. So we still have not had any offers on the condo. We went 3 weeks without a single person through...urgh. Thankfully we had 2 people come this weekend. It definitely lifted my spirits. Today we had an open house and 2 potential buyers came so that is good. Unfortunately we have a lot of competition out there in the condo world, and a handful here where we live. We are just praying that God will send the right buyer for our condo. Really it is all in His time and control. We are really learning trust and patience.

Let's see, family news...really not much. Our little Kelly is now 5-1/2 months and is mastering sitting up!! Oh and she also loves eating bananas. I am so blessed to have such a happy baby. Kelly has such a great smile and is just so much fun! In April we are planning to get a family photo taken by my brother(Chriswatkins.com) at the tulip fields. I can't wait! i hope the weather is nice when we go. :)

Ok, well enough for now. I guess I am not so good at the blogging life. More pics to come soon.

Patience

We have had our condo on the market 2 weeks tomorrow. So far we have had 3 showings. That is encouraging. I am really trying to have patience. I know, I know it's only been 2 weeks. I am just really excited about the new house. But I am trying to not get too excited so that I am not really dissapointed if we aren't able to get it. It all hinges on selling our condo. You know, it's really ok if we don't get this new house, because they are so many houses out there. I am sure we will be able to find something just as great!

Let's see, not much else going on. Kelly is doing really well. Happy as usual and just a joy. Oh and I love having a clean house everyday!! Once you get it really clean then it is pretty easy to maintain. :) One good thing about putting your house for sale.

Here is a good ol cell phone pic of our lot for our new house.
