Finally an update!

It has been a LONG time since I blogged:)  I think that my pineapple paintbrush blog just about blogged the life out of me.  I had a lot of fun making artwork with my kids and sharing the projects through my online art class.  I am still so happy with the great response I received from it.  However, I decided to walk away from it after a few months because it was taking too much of my time and energy and it was only meant to be 6 weeks long.  I can't believe it has been almost a year since I posted on this blog!

I just thought I would let you know that we still are around....  Life is a bit crazy.  I am expecting our 4th baby very soon, I am scheduled to be induced on March 13th.  If you are wondering whether we are going to have our 4th boy, so am I!  We are kinda crazy and decided not to find out this time.  We will really be happy either way, which makes the wait tolerable.  However I am feeling quite unprepared for a baby girl.  I have bought a few things but they can all fit into 1 target bag.  I guess I just don't believe it is possible that I could actually have a girl.

The new baby on the way gave us the motivation to think about moving away from our home that we have loved for almost 6 years.  We just can't fit one more thing in this house, and if you saw my garage you would believe me.  After months of searching for a house we decided to build instead.... and our builder officially broke ground last week.  It will be hard leaving this home and this neighborhood that we love so much.  We moved in 1 week before Liam's first Birthday, and soon he will be turning 7.  I am just glad we will not be too far from our friends here, we are only moving 10 minutes away!  So we are in for a crazy but exciting few months of having a new baby, selling our home and moving.  Our new house should be finished and ready to move in at the beginning of July.  Wish us luck, we need it!  Here is a picture of our big pile of dirt.....  It is hard to imagine there will be a house there soon.
