Well the house we put an offer in on (on Sandridge Rd.) fell through… it was outright rejected. Oh well. There were 2 other offers in on the house at the same time so we were in somewhat of a bidding war. Go figure… the house sits on the market for 9 months with no interest and then all of a sudden it’s like the hottest house in Bowling Green. Eh, oh well. God knew what He was doing b/c about a week later another house came on the market that was priced perfect for what we can afford, we took a look at it and I fell in love! I had never been excited about any of the houses we had looked at and this one seemed like it was perfect for what we had been looking for! We put an offer in on it the next day and now the contract is in the countering phase…. just trying to work out the details of a closing date! 
It’s not a done deal yet but it’s getting closer. We’ll find out in a few days where we stand and I’ll be sure to keep you all posted! Your prayers would be appreciated.

Samuel has a new room!! Well, it’s a shared room, but at least he has a corner now!
I’m not sure our youngest, Samuel, is going to make it to his first birthday. I think our daughter is trying to get rid of him. I think she loves him, she talks to him and about him often. But she has also done things to make us think otherwise. When he is in his swing she likes to push it beyond what it was meant to go. She likes to poke his eyes. She threw his favorite pacifier into the garbage disposal (unknown to Erin until she ran it). She has picked him up and dropped him repeatedly (and tried to pick him up many other times). She has taken his blanket, covered his face with it and laid on him. She has put a marble, a pretzel, a piece of pizza, and other things into his mouth. I’m just not sure if Samuel is going to make it because his older sister is out to get him.
This is Ethan’s way of saying this room is off limits for Alayna. Now every door in our house, even Alayna’s own room, has this sign. Even the outside doors. It’s Alayna’s catch 22 - can’t go in, can’t go out.
We went to the Midwest Homeschool Convention in Cincinnati a couple weeks ago. It was crowded!! Besides the fact that they scheduled the conference to begin at the exact same time as opening day for the Cincinnati Reds (~10,000 convention goers + ~40,000 baseball fans = no available parking + lots of frustration!) it was a nice trip. Samuel enjoyed the big bed, Erin and I took the floor. ;)
