Always making new memories: 2/20/11

I have been so busy that blogging has not been on the top of my to-do list and it looks like things will just get busier in the next month but I am planning to add blogging to my to-do list so I don't forget to keep all of you in the loop ;) even if its just real short and sweet!

we are down to 42 days!!!!! FOURTY TWO DAYS! Can you believe it?! That is so soon!
We had our very first showing last Saturday! We were so excited and got some really good feedback but no offers have been made yet. Still praying and keeping our fingers crossed that a sale could take place soon. So if anyone knows anyone looking for a home to buy please please send them our way :)

Either way a move to NY is happening so soon! the house has changed a lot, we had the living and dining room re-carpeted last week and it looks so nice! It turned out perfectly and I hope that it helps with the sale. Our garage seems to have turned into a black hole where everything we don't want, use, need or will be sold, ends up and I'm a little scared to even go out there and try to organize it until after Sean goes through all of his Army stuff that will have to be turned in. The yard looks great too, its nice that the weather has been so warm and we were able to take advantage of that and get outside work done.

Today is my very last day babysitting. Some know that I have been caring for a 2 year old since the first week of August and I decided a few months back that February would be my last month so I could take more time to prepare for our move. I am looking forward to not waking up every morning at 6am and having 3 kids all day long! Its been great but challenging and I know for sure that I def would not be up for a baby #3 anytime soon! So many people have asked if we are done having children esp since we have one of each, and I think we are but sometimes wonder if maybe down the road we will want another, so it has been talked about that it will be discussed again at a much later date! LOL

Today I also had to take my little man in for a chest x-ray. :( poor little guy was not happy about it at all and it broke my heart, but mommy's family sure has some unpleasant things in our family medical history and it passed along asthma to him so he had to have one done. I found out yesterday when I took him to the doctor that he has asthma. I have it really bad and hoped that neither one of my kids would get it but sure enough one of them did and its my sweet boy. Only 11 months old and he sure has had some not so fun times at the doctors. I'm glad that we know early so he has what he needs when he needs it because having an asthma attack and not having what you need is no good!! I pray that he will grow out of it throughout his childhood and not have to deal with it as an adult like his momma does.

well now its lunch time and miss Chloe keeps asking if we can have lunch and watch a movie together, I love having special time with her each day :)

On Sunday, February 20th, 2011 around 9am, my little Liam was baptized at our church on Fort Bragg! It was so great to have family and friends be there for his special day! Sean's Aunt and Uncle traveled up from South Carolina on Saturday, my dad and my mommom traveled from PA on Saturday and our friends, Tanya and John, traveled down from PA on Friday! CC and Derek and the kids were also here and Heather and Rob and kids :)

After the church service, the church had a cake for Liam :)

Then everyone came back to our place and spent the afternoon enjoying Jersey Mike's, more cake and other goodies!

It was a really great day! and I'm very thankful for all of those that took part in it :)
The same pastor that baptized Chloe 2 1/2 years ago, also baptized Liam, which I thought was pretty special
Here are some pics from his special day!!
