Who knew that preparing a house to be sold would be so much work? Well I guess anyone out there that has sold a house knows. It takes a lot of work and time (neither of which we have) to make a house ready to sell. Nonetheless, we are plugging away in hopes (my hopes) of listing before the end of February. I think it still can be done but we have some big stuff to do before than.
I do not have school tomorrow so Richard took the day off so we could work around the house without the kids (going to daycare). It was going to be prefect: able to get things done around the house, painting, lawn mowing, etc. until Evelyn came down with hives on Friday night. She has been on antibiotics for an ear infection and after a week on them she developed hives, so tomorrow I have to take her to the dr. to get her ear looked at and make sure that it is healed and she doesn't need any other antibiotics. We are planning on taking Camille still so hopefully some work will get done.
Some updates:
Evelyn: Other than the hives and not liking her bed, is doing well. She just helped me make some brownies for tonight. She remembers so much it is amazing. She remembers where things are better than we do. She is a happy and healthy (mostly) child and for that I am grateful.
I did have a bad mommy moment today. I was spinning her around in the yard for a little bit and when I put her down she threw up a little bit. She was fine after that but was sad looking when she did it. Bad mommy!
Love her smile on this one... so pure.
Camille: Camille can identify her head, belly, feet, ears and hands. It is adorable when she shows off her belly. She also started giving high fives which I can't wait to see my brothers because they will get a kick out it. She is doing well and learning more everyday. She follows directions we ask her. Simple ones like sit down, find your shoes, or let's go change your diaper. She amazes us. I try to relish in her curiosity and exploration, as our last child I want to take in every moment that I can.
She wanted her PJs on but also her shoes. She was VERY happy running around like this.
Richard and I are doing well. Trying to get the house ready and dreaming of the possibilities of a new house in our future excites us. We aren't looking for anything extravagant but something that we can grow as a family in and still have some space. We are looking in areas with good school districts and are safe. Wish us luck in selling our house and finding one we can grow as a family in.
