Not so sweet...

Well, these last few weeks have been very fun, but also stressful. Jeff and I signed a contingency contract on a new home in Saginaw. We love it! It has tons of space, a great open kitchen, a huge backyard, and 2 guest bedrooms! Now we have to just wait until our home sells. Please pray for Gods timing... I am so anxious for it to sell. I want to move in to the new home before the baby comes. That is only 6 1/2 weeks away by the way! My Mom left today. It was so nice having extra hands to help me with Claire and keeping the house spotless. My belly is getting so big, that it makes it difficult for me to do simple things like hold Claire, or put her in her crib. Another new development in our lives is that Claire is not the sweet little angle that she was 2 weeks ago. Maybe she is still getting over a cold, or she is getting a tooth, or she is hitting the terrible two's way to early... who knows? I do know that she growls at me and hits me when I tell her NO, or disipline her in any way. We went to Macaroni Grill for dinner on Wed. night and Jeff and I had to take turns keeping her outside becasue she was throwing such a huge tantrum. Please pray for my patience, and Jeffs too. On a happier note... Jeff likes his new job! He even has his own office with a window! He is commuting to Fort Worth everyday, so it will be very nice when we can make the transition to the new house! Well, I hope you all have a great weekend! Here is a picture of Claire getting her hair cut for the first time this week!

hey girl,
I just sent you an email, but I was unsure of the correct address, so here you go again! We are having bible study at my house this Monday, so be there girl! Also, if you plan to bring Claire, just let me or Liz know and we'll take care of the whole childcare thing. :) Have a great day!

Hey Eme,

I just wanted to let you know that I can sympathize with you and the terrible two's stage. Both of my kids started at about 18 months. They just changed into different kids overnight. We quit going out to eat for a while with both of them. But don't worry, it's just a phase. Every new stage has things that are hard, and things that are fun and easy. So just hang in there! Let me know any time you need for me to watch Claire. Christy
