One of my latest scrapbook pages - I'm really proud of this one! Posted by Hello

no time to blog, too busy packing!

I can't believe how quickly our move is approaching! In less than a month we'll be in our very own home!! It's so exciting and stressful at the same time.

So, who wants to have us over for dinner?

We are working very very hard to get every penny saved for our house. My friend just pointed out to me that her wedding (which I am supposed to photograph) is the same day as our closing! Arrrgh! We have so much to do in such a short time.

Esme and I have been doing a lot of swimming lately. Yesterday our friend Clare invited us to a pool to swim for a few hours and Esme had a great time in the water and playing with Liam and Grace.

Happy Birthday Kaitlyn!

Today we went down to CT to go to Kaitlyn's 1st birthday party. She was so cute and full of energy today! She just gets cuter and cuter. Charles came and dressed up as Peanuts for all the kids' entertainment. I had fun watching Dylan even though the poor baby cried part of the time. After the party we went back to my mom's and ate Greenville Pizza. It was fun to hang out with Charles and Dylan, who was much happier once his Daddy arrived.

Ethan is starting his extra work for student rush already. It is hard to give up some of our time with him! But at least we know he'll be getting lots of extra time off to spend time with us.

Tomorrow we are renting the storage space to move all of our stuff into for the big move. It is hard to believe how quickly that is coming up! In a month in a half we'll be in our very own home! Even though I'm not looking forward to moving at all, I am looking forward to making our very own nest.

Mimi is a great Mother's Helper

I am trying to get organized before our move and Mimi is helping me out today by watching Esme. Esme just loves her and has been laughing and playing with her all day.

I can't believe we are moving on 10/1. We have sooo much to do!

30th Birthday Parties Galore!

Yes as of Sunday I am officially 30 years old! Ethan and my mom threw me a wonderful party with my family and some friends Sunday afternoon. Ethan had obviously put so much work into it - he made me feel very special. My mom made up a trivia game for me that I had fun playing and laughing about.

My friend Lisa and her family were away for the weekend so they threw me a second party today! I went to Lisa's house and they made me all my favorite foods and gave me lots of wonderful gifts. It was so nice of them and again made me feel very special.

This photo is of Esme on the swing at Eastern Point. I love to take her there with my mom and Aunt Cathy. She loves to sit in the water and to crawl around on the sand.  Posted by Hello
