Brusha Brusha Brusha

Charger's new thing has been to brush his teeth. While I was packing up I came to the drawer that holds all our extra tooth brushes-all the ones I got for free from CVS and Walgreens. Charger made off with 3 of them and at any given time you might find him with all 3 in his hands at the same time. I think he likes the way they feel on his gums since he is still breaking some new teeth.

Here he is with just one.

Way too much stuff.

So how many boxes (of the Banker boxes size) would it take to pack your entire house? I can promise you that you would not even be close at your guess. I have well over 40 boxes packed and you wouldnt have a clue if you walked through my house. That's not including the 10 boxes or so of things that I have ready to donate to the Goodwill or something.

We feel the Lord is leading us to move north and take up farming. DH's father is a farmer and DH would like to join him there. It wont be a lavish lifestyle, but I am going to love having lots of outdoor space for the children to play. FIL warns me that there is something in the water up there as his wife had 7 children and his neighbors had 8 or something. I told him that would be fine with me :).

So our current plan is to pack up all the stuff we are not using on a regular basis so that we can start getting our house in order to sell. This, you see, takes ALOT of time. So, there may be a lot of space between updates here on the blog for awhile. I am in my 2nd trimester and the nesting phase has hit at just the right time :). I am sure in my 3rd trimester my rumpus will again have a magnetic attraction with the recliner and my posts will once again be numerous.

If anyone wants to buy a house, I have one for sale :)

Splish Splash I was takin' a bath

All upon a Wednesday morn

Cash Lincoln

My little brother found out today that he and his wife are having a baby boy! I know he is going to be a great daddy and I am so excited for him. I am sure he will be tall. I hope he learns to play guitar like his daddy since I think he might be named after Johnny Cash. I dont know that for sure though!

So Mustang and Charger now have 3 boy cousins and 0 girl cousins. Does that mean I shouldnt get my hopes up that we are having another girl?? I was really hoping for a neice, but this way Mustang gets to still be the princess of family-unless she gets a sister in September :).

Congrats O & J!

After much consideration, we have officially decided to NOT find out the gender of our new little baby until the day in September that he or she decides to bless us with their presence. I have always wanted to not find out, and I think this is the perfect time. So, if you see any cute neutral stuff, let me know :).

My turn to pray.

At dinner, DH and I take turns praying. We get the kids settled and our food on the table hold hands then the question-whose turn is it to pray. The applical party usually says 'mine' and then we go ahead with our short and to the point prayer while we try to keep 2 children from devouring their food prior to Amen.

Thursday night we had the typical dinner activities. We were holding hands and DH asked 'whose turn?' and Mustang answered, 'Mine.'

So, we closed our eyes and she prayed her little prayer. 'Dear God, Thank you for the food.' 'Amen' I prompted. 'Amen'
