We are in Texas now. We are staying with Steve's parents. We have been for the past 2 months. I just haven't felt well enough to do mostly anything. I am finally starting to feel (mostly) normal. I am 16 weeks pregnant, the baby is due on January 1st. I should find out next week if it is a boy or girl. I'm thinking girl, I'll actually be surprised if it's a boy. We'll see, I knew Stevie was a boy. I guess I have a 50/50 chance of being right!
Steve has a job at Tandy Leather Factory, working in the warehouse. A lot less stressful. He can wear pretty much whatever he wants, listen to his iPod, and it has a/c. He does come home grimy, from all the dust on the boxes and shelves, but it is much better that working in the sewers!
Stevie is wonderful. He is having a grand ole time with his grandparents. He calls Steve's dad, 'Jack'. (His name is Paul, not sure where he got Jack from) He's always asking for Grandma. They have been so helpful since I have been feeling lousy. He loves swimming in the pool, playing with trains, play-doh, and moon sand. But, sometimes he still says he wants to go home. I think he thinks this is an extended vacation!
We have a contract on a house. It has 3 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. It's perfect for what we need right now. It's a foreclosure, and of course needs some work, but nothing too bad. We should close on it in the middle of August. Steve is anxious to start the repairs, so we can move in. We are both ready to have a home again (actually I'm pretty sure Stevie wants a home too!).
I have been missing Virginia Beach the past week, but the move has and will continue to be better for our family
