Luke 11:9

"So I saw to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you". 

Thank you all for your prayers!  The option period is over on the condo my buyer put under contract!  I just got the last of the docs signed in the Sears parking lot about 30 minutes ago!  What a blessing!  Closing set for 10 days from now. 

I am so thankful.

Just found these

Just found these pics from Mother's Day this year.  Wanted to share them!  Lizzy was three months old.  It was the best Mother's Day I've ever had. 

Teething

Poor little Lizzy is having the worst time teething!  She has been working on some teeth for what seems like forever!  Still no teeth even poking through!  She's drooling like crazy, trying to chew on everything in sight, and cries out during the night several times a night.  I just hate it for her!  Every morning I think I'll see a tooth but nada! 

On another note, she is starting to love water!  Bath time has become a lot more fun and we've made several trips to the pool!  Her pale little skin needs a LOT of sunscreen though!  Here she is below in her sparkly bathing suit!

Prayers Needed

Hi Family and Friends-

I am asking you all to pray that my current house listing that I have sells in the next two weeks.  The listing agreement is about to expire, and we've already extended it once.  I know the seller will not extend it again.  Please pray that a buyer comes along.  I know it's a busy time right now for people getting back to school, etc.  There just aren't a lot of people out looking.  I really need this house to sell though!

Also- please pray that the next 48 hours go smoothly with the condo I had a buyer put under contract last week.  The option period is over on Saturday, and we have a lot to work out before then to make the deal go through. 

Thank you in advance for the prayers!

My Cup Runneth Over...

School started on Monday and it's been an unusual back to school for me this year.  Rob and I agreed for me to try out being part time. 

I am teaching third grade math which is only two classes.  So, I teach from 9:45-11:20 every day!  I get to wake up and spend the morning with Lizzy, and then she stays with one of her grandmothers while I go to work.  I'm back by lunch!  I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this extra time I get to spend with her, and we are so blessed to have grandmothers to watch her.  Lizzy loves the time she gets to spend playing with Honey and Mimi.  Rob and I can't thank them enough for all of the help they are to us!  I have been so close to my grandmother, and I'm so glad that Lizzy will have that same experience with hers.   

God has been so good to us and knows our heart's desires along with our needs.  He is faithful to answer; I am thankful for this wonderful job opportunity.   

I'm also thankful for my sweet husband that believes in me and that I'll be able to sell some houses and further my realtor career.   


Truly, my cup runneth over...

So, I've started a blog...

So, I've started a blog.  Not sure why and don't expect anyone to read it/care.  But, it's sort of like a journal for me and an easy way to keep family and friends updated on what's going on with us!  It will also be a good way for me to record stories about Lizzy.

It's hard to believe she's already six months old!  Six and a half actually.  She's brought so much joy to Rob and me.  I can't remember life without her.  It seems like every week she learns more new things.

Right now her favorite foods are: banana, blueberry applesauce, squash, and sweet potatoes with carrots.
She loves sitting up like a big girl in her highchair!  

Her hair is redish blonde and is starting to look like it will have some wave to it.

She is a great nighttime sleeper, and we are working on being a good napper!  So far, so good for this week (but it's only Tuesday!) 

She is definitely a "Daddy's Girl" at heart.  Her face lights up every time Rob walks in.  He is such a good daddy and very hands on!  

Well, we'll see how the "blogging" goes!  I'm hoping to keep up with it but there's just no telling.  That's all for today!
