It's been awhile

Since I have posted so I thought I would send a little update. This has been a super busy week for us. I made a work trip to Duluth, my school term is ending, Beth's school year is ending and Hailey is adjusting to her new daycare/school. All in all, we're ready for June to get here. The house is still for sale and we really aren't getting much activity. Pray to the real estate gods for help when you get a chance. We miss everyone and are excited for some grandparent visits in June! Talk you all soon.

Hailey's New School

On Monday, Hailey starts at a new school called La Petite Academy. We went through the facility a few times and it is unbelievable. The teachers are all actual teachers with degrees and the development of the kids that Hailey will be joining is unreal. We are so excited for her. They are a nice mix of letting kids be kids, and an educational facility.

Lil Huney went Potty

While I worked on an Accounting project, Beth and HP went for a walk with Erin.  When they got back, Beth was getting HP ready for bed and before putting on her PJ's, she asked HP if she needed to go Potty.  Hailey of course said, YEAH, and she went into the bathroom.  We got her up on her potty and watched her do some pushing with a little coaching from the two of us.  After a few little toots, we heard the most beautiful sounding of water hitting water, and the celebration began.  Lil Huney just went potty on the big girl potty.  We cheered for a few minutes and gave her a few cookies.  Sure beat slaving away on debits and credits.  

Good night.

House woes continue

Well, we had a promising buyer come through on Sunday only to have them choose to put an offer in on another house. This is pretty much the second time that has happened and we couldn't be more frustrated. We how have the house listed below what we paid for it two years ago. It's such a difficult thing to go through. Keep your fingers crossed, and for those of you who pray, pray to the housing gods that this puppy will sell so we can move on to the next chapter of our lives.

With that said, our friends Corey and Erin Jansen just had their baby. Little Harrison Jansen is now like 10 days old and they stopped over for a quick visit last night. Lil Huney didn't know what to say.

De-Stapling

Well, I get my staples out today and I couldn't be more excited. My wound was in the middle of the back of my head and since I can't get it wet, no showers for me. I've taken a few baths, but I really need a nice shower. I can't wait.

I can't tell you how frustrated Beth and I are with our house situation. People are really taking to the street behind our house. We are now listed below what we paid for it two years ago. We just want to get this deal done! This is just the worst experience ever. I have a month break from school coming up and I was hoping to be moving then. Pray for this weekend's open house to bring through our buyer!

Well, I best get back to working. Happy Birthday (yesterday) Daddy Dean-o! 5 working shifts left and you are going to be retired. We're so proud of you and your 30+ years in your career! Also, my uncle Lane retires in the next week or so! Congratulations! Denver, when is it your turn?
