Some Big Things

Joel and I are excited to let you know some upcoming events and dates. Ultimately God knows what will happen for sure and when/if they happen.

Bean Sprout is due to arrive on Wednesday January 19th. We'll be dropping the kids off at a friend's house the night before and we will keep you posted here on this blog the arrival of our fifth child!

We are buying a house across town! The house is a 2 bedroom with a smaller room that could be a nursery or office. There is a walk-out basement that could potentially have two more bedrooms and a bathroom. It has a large yard: large enough for a small garage in the future, a garden and lots of playspace for the kids. We will be closing on the house Tuesday January 25. But we won't be moving until mid-February. There is some work we want to do on the house before we move in. (And Mommy needs to recover a little from having a baby!!)
In the midst of this excitement we will be celebrating Rachel's fourth birthday! She has been waiting for this event since September and talks about it nearly everyday.

So that is all(!) for now. Thanks for all your prayers.

  2. oh! you're new little one will be born the day after isaac's birthday. :)

    and a house! of your own! how wonderful! with a walk-out basement - that is SO NICE. so much more light and feels so much more liveable than a traditional basement. isn't God good?

    and rachel shares my dad's birthday -though i'm sure he won't be having a princess party. ;) i put on a couple very pink parties in the past few years. :) fun!

    enjoy every minute of this wonderful month!
