Keeping Cool & Other Updates

With temps staying low(ish), we're getting some help from Momma Nature to stay cool and relaxed. We were able to open the windows in our lovely loft space and get some fresh air over the past couple of days. The view of the lake is something we're going to miss.

In housing news: So an update on the house situation: we finally got an official contract - our closing date is scheduled for September 7th. We're pretty excited about the big move and keep praying that everything goes well. A house inspection is scheduled for next week - so hopefully our contract home passes inspection with flying colors.

Outside View of our Contract Home - Isn't she a beaut?!

In related news: anyone out there great at painting walls/applying wallpaper and open sometime in early- to mid-September? We'd love your help! I'll even write a tribute to you on our blog! And of course, we'll keep you well fed and supplied with plenty to drink... {tempting, no?}

In toddler news: Anna-bears is doing great so far with all the changes. She talks a lot about "loving on Bo" and when she knows she's been bad and is about to get in trouble, she'll give mommy/daddy a hug and say "I'm just loving on you". Smart girl. It still works with me. #toddlerwins

In baby news: Bo has his next photo op (AKA ultrasound) tomorrow morning. Our low-lying placenta issue means monthly ultrasound checkups for us, which is kind of nice - I love having so many pictures of in utero Bo. And don't worry - we'll post some of his best shots to the blog soon after his photo shoot.
