Once a slacker...

My husband threatened that if I didn't update the blog soon he was going to take it over, and as much as I would like to see how that would turn out, I figured it was about time to get back on the ball again. So we moved to North Carolina!! Jason was stationed here and we have been in our own place since August, it has been wonderful to have our own place and space and our family back together again. For those who don't know we are expecting a baby boy due January 16th!! He is a wonderful surprise addition to our family. Sadly though, Jason will be deployed in just a few short months and will miss his birth. We are devastated about that, but know that everything happens for a reason. It should be an interesting time for me and Ethan. Ethan has LOVED having his Dad home, they are best buds and it is going to break my heart to explain that Daddy won't be home for a while again. We are trying to keep a positive attitude and are praying that the time will go by quickly. I am scrambling to try and finish my online line web design certificate program before the baby is born, so that will keep me busy for a little while anyway. It has been so nice being a stay at home mom these last few months, it is so much fun to hang out with Ethan all day!! I go a little stir crazy some days since we are a one car family, but overall it is such a huge blessing. Here are a few pictures of our time here in North Carolina so far, we are loving being so close to the beach! Plus it helps that my sister Heidi and her family are only 5 minutes away!



                           Apparently I can't even have a foot soak by myself :)
So we had a hurricane here just a few short weeks after moving in, we were very fortunate though and didn't even experience a power outage!
The only person Ethan will let cut his hair without throwing a huge fit, Daddy has the magic touch!
