Lately...

So I've been terrible about blogging, or communicating with the outside world in general. I've relied on Daniel to communicate with people and keep the blog up, and look how he has slacked this past week! Just kidding, I honestly don't know what I would do without him. Since we had Asher, we have truly had to be more of a team and I have a whole new appreciation for him!

So... what's been going on with us? Not a whole lot, really. We took a quick trip to Welch last week to see my parents and let Asher meet some family. I just needed to see my parents, you know? We are looking at houses to rent pretty often, and so far have come up with nothing. Unfortunately, we will have to raise our price range if we want anything decent. We have gone back and forth about possibly staying in this apartment, but if we are going to pay that much and are not doing CARES, we would prefer a house with a yard and no stairs! I had no problem with these stairs until I got pregnant, and since I've had Asher, the dislike has grown to hatred! I have a toddler who will hardly go up and down on her own, and when she does, it takes twenty minutes, so I give in and haul both children up and down two flight of stairs way too often. I've started neglecting the upstairs rooms because I just don't want to go through the trouble to go up there! Please pray that we find a house that works for us soon!

I'm still not in the swing of not working or not doing CARES. I'm grateful that I don't have to worry about it because the kids take up all my time, but it's the first time I haven't had a side job on my mind always. I am used to getting out more! I'm kinda ready for summer when all the moms from church have fun play dates and activities planned frequently! I mean, I'm super busy around the house, but I just feel better when I spend time out and about. Again, I think a yard would help! Ok, enough rambling about nothing interesting, here are a few pics! My mom threatened me not to put the pig tails one up, but what's she gonna do about it?

  1. I promise to keep you all in our prayers...I know something will work out for you soon. I totally understand how you are feeling right now...it is normal and we all have gone through it..the transition from working to be at home all the time, the transition from 1 to 2...changes take a lot out of us even when we are ready for them and have lots of help and support. You are an amazing person, mom and wife...big hugs!

  2. I will be praying that God provides a place for your family to live. I know Asher is still young, but when you are ready we need to hang out. This mommy needs to get out too :) I love the pig tails picture!

  3. Sena, I hope your kids obey you better than you obey me! (but we are kinda cute, so I forgive you)
