HouseNews,Pictures,KnowMe, Mushiness sorry!

What am I doing??? Woe... I have so much going on..and not a whole lot I can actually share...gosh..many weightly issues...
Here is what I can share-
WE GOT THE HOUSE! we will probably be closing next week and if not then no later than the 26th. As we finalized our loan to on Monday- Jake tells me he is tingling... hhmm... his nerves.... more debt... to me this is good debt though which he knows that. To be able to purchase 2 acres with a well and septic already dug...is great... granted we don't know how well the plumping is...or the well.. But I mean people lived there just a few months ago... if that is any indication of things atleast working then I can or will chance it. Paying 17,900 for the property ...its a chance I'm willing to take. Hopefully- all this pays off in the end... but one thing I surely know is... I have prayed long and hard for this opportunity. Like a year ago when this wasn't even in our sites...I was praying asking to let us be ready to get out of the current house so I don't have to worry about not being able to expand our family when we wanted.>I don't want to have to wait on our housing situation..so.. this wasn't no lucky thing...like it just fell in our laps... I remember one Sunday we seen the house up for sheriff Sale...I thought oh my gosh! This is would amazing... My hopes were let down when Jake says 9 out 10 times the bank will buy the house. I said you are at least going to go right? No, Why would I go when we don't have the funds to big right now. Lets just have the bank buy it and go through the Realtor. (I was pretty upset/pissed/disappointed)... Well all that happened. Jake started calling seeing who had the house what Realtor he would need to contact. I do give him props..he did stay on top of it when I didn't beleive he was. And b.c. we were the first ones to contact the Realtor she wanted to give us first chance to bid and wanted to work with us to get this property. Its been so fun and amazing knowing that we could and should be living in a new home by school time! That is our goal... Some specific prayer request though. Pray that when we turn on the electric that the plumbing and everything works and no major fixes! Thank you!
My Very 1st Box Packed!
With this new move and talks of expanding the family or really potential now.... I don't see it till Stu is potty trained or Stuart is 3 of starting on the next one..but feelings of adoption have came up again. Before we were married we had talked about adoption. I myself have always seen me adopting at least once! I'm not sure if it is because my family has done foster care or having a adoptive brother..I just don't know..but its a dream of mine... I really would like to do it in the middle of my children...not adopt our last one b.c. I don't know the child to not have the memories of becoming a "big" sister/brother...or the children not having memories growing up ya know.. Like my brother he was much older when he was adopted...I'd like for them all to have memories growing up as children. Well.. I started looking into again....and just right now- its not plausible. I'm open to adopt from anywhere- but I'm thinking... which not this baby but our 4th baby will be adopted. And my favorite idea is to do a snowflake adoption... Which is the result of couple that went through invitro and had left over fertilized eggs. The parents do not want to destroy them because they are preborn babies but do not want any more kids. So they adopt them out.  SO you adopt a embryo/s and you have a doc implant them and you carry the baby/babies to term. How freaking neat is that??? Its not as expensive as you think either!  http://www.nightlight.org/snowflake-embryo-adoption/  check it out! SO I am hoping that is the adoption route we do take.. 

Here is another thing that struck me this week... I consider being call opinionated as a insult.. the person didn't mean to insult me or didn't mean it that way....but why is it any strong woman that knows what she believes or isn't afraid to tell you show she feels about something is considered "opinionated" .If you thinka bout it every person whether boy or girl has a opinion- so why does the girl get the bad rap.....when I think of  that saying of oh she is a pretty opinionated woman... I think of a big old loud bitch that shoves her views down people throats...that doesn't know when to shut up.. lol....that isn't me right? ... ohhh.. whatever..I know who I am and what I am... 
This is Syd..we probably took a million pictures there was maybe  6 good ones..oh the trying times we will have taking her pictures I can already tell! lol 

This Monday I'm taking pictures of my friend's baby boy Aiden! :)...Little nervous lol..why??? ... IDK...I know she will be understanding and she knows I'm not a professional!... I just need to think about exactly what I want and location location location! lol..I love this opportunity she is giving me!stay tuned this week..also! I could have had a 100th b day party to take pictures at on Saturday but i'm already busy..wish I could have done that too!... I'm just happy or makes me feel good people are thinking of me and asking!

making life decisions here lately makes me sentimental..like reminds me of how much me and Jake have changed and evolved..and how long we have been together.... He is surely not the same boy I met at wrestling districts however many years ago..but boy did we fall hard and fast...exihibt A.: click on it and read it...its almost too mushy to share but I don't even care..who really reads this anyways... but note the date OCT 2004 we met at the earliest end of FEB/first week of March 2004..how many months later I"m writing this on the back of my picture and putting it in a frame to give to him...... (which I did this alot gave him pictures and wrote notes on them to see if he would find it) ...
found while packing first box

Saturday finishing up canning pickles..then off to my cousin's wedding at the AE community center!..which- it will be  a kid free night..My MIL & FIL are taking the kids in the morning! ..oh what a lovely night! :) ... welp!..I gotta get going!... Have a wonderful night..and keep me and my family in your prayers!..
Until next time.. Love you 
Love,
Me :)

Sick to my Tummy (No I'm not w/child) lol

I feel like I could just about puke right now! So... last Monday the house/property went on the market!..The Realtor met us there in the afternoon and we walked through the house.... My first reaction was put my nose up I can't live in there...but I had to stop myself.....its very livable... granted..we tear out the carpet and replace it with something else...the upstairs is alright...the kitchen floor looks somewhat new...the bathroom needs some major TLC...but on a bright note...I love the color of the bathroom lol :)..its like Aqua!... this house is very livable..and after awhile then we can really do some remodeling and add on. So... yesterday was the first chance we were able to put a offer in..and we did... our Realtor says that we are the first ones. So the bank will either accept or deny our offer. We offered what the house was listed at. Why wouldn't they accept it? Well she said we should know last night or today sometime...man this is a long wait!... I've been dying..my tummy uneasy...this is my "forever" home...my goodness..I'm carrying my future someday 3rd child's crib in the back of my rondevous b.c. I don't want to unload it one place and then to the next and then to the new house... I snapped the crib up after seeing a church friend wanting to get rid of it on facebook! My monsters Stuart & Sondra broke our first one. Anyways..Jake is supposed to call me as soon as the Realtor calls him with any news...I'm dying though... I really want this property. And shockingly I want to live in the house that when I was little I would call our neighbors' place "the Slimely Slones"...No I am not proud..but if you have ever been to my parents you would understand and not think so ill of me like you are now..   anyways.. as much as me and Jake have talked about this lately...we are excited..excited for the adventure of finally feeling like we can settle down...at our house now..its our home..but we always have in the back of our mind... we are not staying here...might as well not paint this or invest too much in it either..so finally having a place we plan on staying at makes me happy... I love the location...its in front of my parents property which means.. when the kids are nasty..I'll say..hey..why don't you go check on your sheep/pony/pigs..w/e/... or I thought I heard your grandparents calling your name! Go see what they want... lol...SSOOOO... please keep us in your prayers concerning this!


The Aftermath of Stu's first time playing outside at our HOPEFULLY new place :) 


I've got a slow weekend...I am not complaining!....I'll update again this weekend I imagine! :)

Love you
