I lost my wallet this morning while Nate was at work. When I texted him to tell him I found it in the CAR I accidentally said I found it in the CAT.
Nate's response was: "The cat that came into our backyard? Did you have to gut it?"
Time for an update!
This has been the BUSIEST month!
On January 5, I started back to school online through BYU-I to finish my degree. It has been hard to find a balance between still accomplishing all my mom/wife responsibilities and getting all my work done. I've had some late nights but it is so worth it and there is actually an end in sight (May 2016) so I am just going to keep on slacking on housework and get this bachelor's degree done!
We also put an offer on a house in December, it was a short sale so we'd been told it could take a long time. Our closing kept getting pushed back and was set for February 17 so we were slowly preparing for that. Then Thursday, January 29 we got a call that we HAD to close by noon Friday! We jumped into high gear to do a final walk through, sign papers and get everything done. As of yesterday we are home owners! We bought a cute little house out in Nampa, close to Nate's work so hopefully we can save on gas! It needs a little work, mainly paint and new carpet. We spent all yesterday afternoon spackling our hearts out. There were seriously over 1,000 nail holes. And they were clustered in groups of like 5 little holes. People are odd, I vowed to never make a single hole in any of our walls after that! We are still deciding on paint color. We also need to buy a fridge and set up internet before we can live there permanently, but in due time.
Spencer has been growing like a weed! He basically runs everywhere and climbs up EVERYTHING! He is going to keep us on our toes. I have found him on top of the table at least 4 times in the last hour. He is 14 months old and just about out of his 12 month clothes. He loves his Opa and checking on the chickens with him. He usually is pretty good about bringing you his shoes when you ask. He loves to be outside all the time. And he is constantly eating. He seriously eats more than me at every meal. It is ridiculous. And then he just wants to snack all day! He says "mom" and calls me and Nate both that. He says ball, Ruby (my parents dog), Opa, bye, hi, yea, and of course cookie. He knows the baby sign for "more" and also says it to mean please. It is going to be a sad day when we move out for good and Spencer doesn't get to see his Oma and Opa everyday! He sure loves them!
