Computer down
Monday I caught Levi playing with the computer cords and since then we could not get online. Last night Roy and Micah fixed it so here I am :0)
With the tax credit time coming to an end people are all trying to finish up houses and buy houses to qualify for the credit so our paperwork is sitting on a desk waiting to be signed. Our Loan lady said it was at the Kennewick escrow/title so yesterday we went there and they gave us a time today to come in and sign. Gods timing is perfect!! We will move some stuff and then us and all the big stuff will move on Saturday. Mom and dad will be back Sun-Tues so they will be able to watch the kids while I go clean the apt. I started to worry a little on Tuesday when I realized we had a week and had to be out of the apt (they have already rented it out). Homeless would have been a good experience for all of us. Faith in action as we are always telling the kids the Lord provides for our needs.
Levi is doing a bit better but still in some pain. We have done tylenol and ora gel. I also put wet wash cloths in the freezer. He is still getting up twice in the night and it is killing me!! When we move we will take care of that problem as I think it is soon going tobe a habitfor him. One I will break ASAP!!

Weekend wanderings
We had a busy weekend doing not what we had planned for. Still waiting on the house. Roy, dad, and the big boys went to look at a full sized van a hour out of town. Roy bought it for 800. Works great and only needs a little maintenance. Mom and I took Avery and levi and spent the day shopping. Have no idea when I last did that I am normally not much for that but had a blast!!
Levi is our worst teether so far. For about 5 days now he has been up 4-7 times in the night. He is also the first one to have a fever with teeth. two are thru on the bottom with two more coming and one coming on top. Poor guy! How is Ashers teething going? Guessing we could call and chat in the middle of the night hahaha.
Sunday was busy and wonderful. After meeting we all ate lunch together and had a lot of spiritual conversation. Came home and continued it with my parents and then they went grocery shopping as they leave for their trip this am and will be back next Sat night.

Expensive weekend :)
Wow we spent a lot of money this weekend. Started out going out to eat Friday because we had to pick up Roy from work. Then saturday... we have never spent so much in even a month. The way it goes when getting a real house I suppose. This week will just be more spending by putting the downpay.
Prayer is my word for the year and I have been purposfully and specifically praying. Thursday I had to meet Roy to give him his phone charger. I mentioned the reunion the short of it was he said that he and Josh talked about it and Roy thinks I should go with the two little ones while he takes the week off with the big boys! I was very confused. After talking Friday I realized it is not money but how we use it that he is being cautious about. I told him we did not have to go we just need to tell yall whats up ASAP. So I prayed just for the Lords leading and wisdom for my husband and peace for me with not going. First thing Saturday am Roy looked at tix prices and after just over 2 hours he shocked me by saying he bought tix!! We fly out on the first and return on the13th or 14. He decided to take a few extra days unpaid for which I am so grateful for! In my mind it made no sense to go Thursday to Thursday and waste weekend days. So exciting to see the Lord answer specific prayer and then some :) There are a whole lot of little stories in there too! Testimony of the Lord granting desires of the heart for many more than just me!! Now on to other specific prayers and looking forward to His divine answers!!
Then on Sat afternoon we bought a new fridge and deep freeze. They are to be ddelivered today!! So exciting as I have never had a full sized fridge!!! And a deep freeze is a dream come true!!
Going to be a busy week and my parents are stopping by this weekend on their way to Idaho.

Pray for July!
I know you all have been praying as I have for this trip. about a month ago Roy started saying we could not afford to go with all the expensen of the house and... I feel like we can rice and beans beans and rice. So he is a little nervous about it. Also the fact the he seems to have the same issue as his parents when it comes to making plans. They don't :) Sooo... I have had in my mind that this week I would push for the answer and get tix. Little did I know I would not see Roy xcept for a hi bye in the am. Tues-Thurs are the best days to buy tix and I found some today for 377 each taxes and fees included (about 50 cheaper than last week). Pray Roy gets the house done earlt tonight so I can see him, talk and show tixs and buy!! I have my heart set on this trip not sure what will happen if iit dosent. I have not seen Linda and Lara in 5 years! So want too see them again and my dear friend Cris although I did see her at the wedding. Can't wait to meet Asher and still praying we can meet Judah at the same time :) Also looking forward to meeting the new and improved Lance!! Love and miss you all!!

slow start
This am I struggled finding my "eager hands" I am quite congested from all the dust packing has stirred up and our horrible vent system here. However slow the start much has been accomplished this am.
Roy did not get home till just after 10 last night. His first words were of regret at not seeing the birthday girl at all on her special day (he left really early). Nothing beats a dad daughter relationship esp after 3 boys. Very special to watch and I bet Jeff would be a great dad to a little princess :) He still has a few hours of work on the house after work today and then will go over a few blocks for the mens bible study prayer meeting at 8 b4 coming home. Praying he gets it done tonight so we can see him again. I am so proud of him he is such a hard worker and never complains about the long days!! Thankyou Lord for my wonderfully talented and hard working husband!!! Above all thankyou for his passionate desire to put you abouve all else for your honor and glory!!
Praying you all are having a wonderful day full of the goodness of the Father!!

one tooth wonder
Levi has a tooth. Praying that was the reason for a horrible night last night. Also poor naps Sunday and Monday.
So thankful to hear of Jacobs improvement!! We prayed for him every day but with being gone most of the day we did not on Sunday. At bed time Micah asked if we could pray for him because "we don't want to forget him"
Today will be another day with just the kids and I. Don't know when Roy got in last night. He is doing all the trim work on our house. He should be done tonight then they have to move the island out (cant fit a large fridge in where they put it), fix floor, then do touch ups and clean ups. Should be done no later than next tuesday and we can sign by end of next week! We have been looking for a black fridge... pleasse pray we can find one on craigs list soon. Kinda need one as soon as we move other things can wait but not that :)

qotes
we all know Kids say the most funny things! A few years ago I had a special calander and wrote all their funny sayings on. Thinking I must start this again. Last night during biggest loser Roy brought Ian down. Ian was coughing so much he threw up a little :( So we made him a bed on the couch. Micah came down later. When the Dr was talking to Sam about his smoking and drinking Micah wondered why drinking was bad and asked if he should stop drinking but then I would die. Just befor he went to bed he saw a boy on tv playing with legos and said "It's my best toy in the world...I just wish I had some!" On that funny note he went to bed :) I love my blessings and all they have to say!
Today I will be catching up on laundry and going through Levis clothes. My sis sent all the 9months and up clothes over with my parents. Levi can even wear some of the 12 mo stuff. Must put up the 3-6 and some uneeded baby blankets.
Have a wolly jolly day!!

Abby??
Olympics are over :( hello again Biggest loser, Survivor and more sleep. I did get a lot of reading done during comercials and events Iwas not too excited about. So I saw several comercials for Biggest loser and Abby from last season was in them?? Not sure what that means but she was my fav last season. What a story of a true overcomer I wont spoil it for you but if they bring her back or even just share her story have a box of tissue nearby!
We had a great time with my parents. The boys did a great job cleaning they did the kitchen floor, the little bathroom, windows, and livingroom. With a little instruction and help for the upper window the job was done great!
House is coming along fixtures are all in and I love them. Suprized by fans which we thought were extra so did not order but had the hookups put in. My sis has 2 in storage they wouldnt match at all but we were going to use them. The guy working Saturday was putting fans up and we ?ed him. They startedd making fans standard this year so they are adding them! counters and cabinets are going in then floor and finish ups.
Love you all and praying you had a relaxing weekend with your family!!
