5 days and counting. . .

Until we close on our new house. I can't believe it! Our house that we're in now should be closing sometime between the 20th and 30th of March. No set date yet, but it's still being worked on.

So right now we're just doing endless amounts of organizing, cleaning and packing. Who woulda known how much stuff you can really accumulate in less then 5 yrs?! I'm a very sentimental packrat. I want to keep everything to remember. Too bad I don't always remember though. It's no use to anyone if it sits in the basement too, so I've gotten rid of a LOT of stuff. I'm also selling a ton of stuff at my Twins Club yard sale (it's March 11th - only 2 days after we move in!). It's been very emotional and tiring going through all this stuff though. Knowing that I would have been due in about 8 weeks from now, knowing that we might not have anymore children, and knowing the babies I do have aren't babies anymore... Their 4th birthday is right around the corner! Time is just FLYING! It's all so overwhelming. But all in a good way too. This is gonna be good for us and we'll just have to see where the future takes us.

Quick update on the kiddos - well they've been sick for the last month now. And they've given it to me and hubby too. Hubby went and mutated that cold and gave it BACK to me AGAIN! I so dispise the winter season and can't wait for spring. I hope this is the last of the colds for us though. *knock on wood* Luckily Max is doing good and hasn't relapsed kidney wise. I sure hope it keeps up. Prayers are definitely working. Hubby is doing good too and his latest scans came back clean. The kids are reading and writing... They are so smart, they never cease to amaze me on a daily basis! I just want to do good by them. Sometimes I see the bad things about me come out on them and I could just kick myself. But all I can do is learn from that and move on. It hit me recently that their long term memory is really starting to kick in. They might remember this stuff many years from now. I don't know how much of this old house they'll remember, but I guess we'll see. We've had some hard times here, so I hope for more good times in our new house for the future!
