Finally...

We were able to close on both houses last Friday. Wow, last week was an emotionally draining week for Tanner & I. It takes a lot to make me cry & I let it out this past week.
We were supposed to close on both houses Tuesday of last week. So of course I had everything ready to go. Closing morning came & we were only able the sign papers on our new house but couldn't close since we had to close on our current one first. To make a long story short...the woman buying our house was using an out of town lender. The woman working for that lending company dropped the ball & didn't have anything ready. So when it was all said & done, we closed 4 days late. But hey we closed & we are all moved & done with the old house!
We like the new house, there are definitely some things we will have to get used too. One being the master bathroom, we aren't used to sharing this area so we will have to work on that ;) I started working on one room at a time. The kitchen is my current project.
We have the most amazing neighbors! Since Saturday we have already met 4 families. At our other house we were/still are good friends with a couple families but it took a couple years to actually meet one family. The other family was friends with Tanner from a few years back. The neighbors to our left came over yesterday & invited us over for dinner. Well it was actually an embarrassing story, it just shows my husband never asks for details! It was nice getting to visit with them, come to find out I went to highschool with ther son in law & they also have lots of grandbabies which will be fun for Parker when she gets a little older. They also have a pool!! Anyways, they have all said the same thing about eachother..how everyone is nice & they have block parties to get to know everyone. This makes me feel really secure.
Tanner put Parker's highchair together the other night and she got to sit in it for the first time. Tanner is taking P to the dr today to make sure she doesn't have this RSV that is going around. Her daycare is full of it she just started with a bad cough & has had matted eyes the past couple days. I don't think she has it but we don't want the weekend to come & her get worse if she does. We have been so busy lately that tonight we are excited to be able to sit, play & spend time with her without running around with her in her carseat. She really needs to work on her tummy time & sitting up better, especially the sitting up since she has pictures coming up soon!
Tanner got really good news at his job this afternoon & we have a line up of hanging out with friends this weekend as well :) Tanner & I started last week teaching the 2 year old class at church. We actually signed up to be volunteers for a year but ended up as the teachers so maybe this was a God thing..not really sure. Last week went farely good, so I am hoping the next year just gets easier over time.

This is a really long post but thought I would share our past week♡
