Quick Update

So things with my health are finally getting better now that I only have 7 weeks left to my inducement. They have had to up my blood thinner medicine every time I get my blood checked so I am on a super high dose. I do not like giving myself the injections and to be honest it has not gotten any easier over the past 3 months. I am grateful to be feeling better and able to do a bit more.

We currently have our house for sale. We have had a lot of people come and look and even had an offer made but they did not accept our counter and we could not meet their terms and still afford the other house we want to buy. Someone else came yesterday and wants to buy the house. They are going to the bank on Monday to see if they can get approved for the loan. So we will wait and see what happens Monday. I have posted a pic of our house.


Samuel started pre-school this week and is already loving it. He comes home telling me all about new songs he is learning and all the rules of his pre-school. He is a smart little guy and really loves school.

My Grandpa passed away a couple of weeks ago and I am sad that his service will be too late in my pregnancy for me to go to Oregon to be there. I was named after my Grandpa - I have his middle name Lee and my grandma's first name - Jennie. These are the grandparents I have been closest to and the first death on my side of the family that has really effected me. We are planning on giving our new son the middle name of Lee after me and my Grandpa. I told my Grandpa that before he passed and I think it meant a lot to him. I was one of the last people to talk to my Grandpa before he passed. I called on a Wednesday not really wanting to because I never know what to say and it is hard for me but I had a feeling that I just needed to call. My Grandma let me talk to him for a minute and we exchanged a few sentences and I told him I loved him and he said the same to me. I will be forever grateful I made that call. He never got back out of bed on Thuirs, Fri, or Sat and passed on Sunday. I know that it was the Spirit that helped me to make that call.

We are planning a family trip to West yellowstone and I will try to remember to take pictrues then blog about it.
