October 2011

It has been a busy time. I'm now in my 3rd trimester and trying to get things ready for a little one to join our family. Max has adapted well and acts like a puppy in a BIG dog body. Clare absolutely adores him and the two keep me very busy. Both are potty trained & I am enjoying the break from accidents & diapers!
We've had a lot of changes for our family the past 2 months. Seth had an opportunity come up and has changed jobs. It's been a bit of a rollercoaster at times but we've made it through the transition. Although we were very sad it didn't work out were we were we feel so fortunate for where life is taking us.
Clare is in her second month of preschool and loves it. We've added a few activities to our list and school is her favorite. It's wonderful to see her learning and loving life.
For me I feel very blessed. Most of the time we are healthy (a few colds are catching us here & there) and as a family we have met some really great friends. I've been continuing to work on my project of "organizing the office". Including putting together my coupon binder, getting scrap booking things together, and everything else that fills the room! It has been my catch all for a while now and I feel so rejuvinated to cleanse the space of excess.
Our other projects have been very low cost as well. Seth recently organized the storage unit and it may sound strange but I feel a sense of calmness when I walk in. Clare's room was a fun project- just new big girl furniture and sorting things to pass on. Now on to the nursery. I have been procrastinating but this is my big project ahead. Dreaming of paint colors, bedding and the layout...
