We're here!

Yep, here we are, in OK! I'm thrilled that it's not nearly as cold as I thought it would be. (YET!) We still have some things to move from Texas and have to close on the house still but we're beginning to unpack and all that jazz. I do not have internet though, so my blogging, emailing, etc will be limited to library trips, which could be once a week or less...bummer. I'm not too sad about it, but it sure is handy to keep up with everyone. So all that said, here we are, and there ya go.

On a roll





Two in one day? Why not? This one is about kids....though today Zev has been somewhat of a clingly crank-o-pants...of which I am way not digging, he rocks. I love the I-need-my-mama-cuz-she's-perfect-and-the-only-one-who-calms-me dependency, sometimes. Other times, it drives me mad. Like today, when he followed me around, moaning and fake crying when I wouldn't hold him. No please. Then we eat lunch and he's being a fussy bum about his food (yes yes, we conquered and won). Am I complaining? No, just saying that despite all this crabbedness, he's addictive. So hairy addictive. I love to kiss, cuddle, kiss, smell and attack him. Can't wait to see his little sibling. Speaking of that new little one, my friend Tonya tells me your body's acidity level often determines the sex of the baby. (Male spermies like a more acidic environment) To which I replied, "I guess that means I'm having another boy." Cuz I'm pretty sure I lean toward acidity, though I try to keep this in check with lots of millet and lemon water....on the other hand, we eat millet like mad hatters, and we were before we conceived.....REALLY WANNA GIRL...there I said it. Take a peak at this cuteness.....

Waiting....

So I wanted to post this a couple of days ago, how we're waiting...waiting to move, waiting to hear if loans are approved, waiting for a baby...waiting. Not my favorite thing to do, but hey. Well, now I have a whole new twist on waiting and man is God teaching us a lesson. Goes like this....we are selling our place, right? Okay, right away our neighbor offers to buy. We wait...but not really. We get impatient, counter offer and have an informal deal going, now we have another couple wanting to buy (offering much more). That's tough, but God is good. So now we have a few things on our plate that we could've avoided if we'd been patient. With me? Patience is good. Not patient= not good. So we're learning. Can't wait for that baby to come...
