Moving!!!!

The time has come, we sold our house after being on the market just between 4-5 days. We found a new house in East Peoria up by ICC. we close on both houses May 22nd. Bryan, Addy and I are very excited and very blessed! we are going from 962 square feet to 2,040 square feet. We are going to have more room than we know what to do with. Right now in the new house the walls are for the most part all white. I will be splashing some color on those walls eventually, but our main goal on moving day is to get Addy's room all set up so her world can still be as normal as possible. things I am sure will be turned upside down for a while for her. It will take some used to adapting to our new surroundings. Adelyn's room right now is purple and anyone who knows me well knows i do NOT like purple. so taht will be one of the first rooms in the house painted a different color! :) we have a really big eat in kitchen! about double the size we have now. Our master bedroom has his and her closets and a master full bath. The room is way bigger than our current. the house was built in 2001 and is in a wonderful neighborhood! It will be great to go for stroller and bicycle ride and meet new people. It is literally 5 minutes from Bryan's work. A little bit of a longer drive for me, but not bad. it'll be worth it. It has 2 full baths and 1 1/2. the basement is fully finished. It has a double stall oversized garage and a nice yard for our Bella bee.
So this past week Bryan and I have been working our butts off packing and packing. it seems to be never ending. I will be glad when both houses are box free and we're all unpacked and settled into the new one.
Addy turned 10 months old yesterday. she is babbling up a storm and motoring around the furniture. she is doing wonderful. still eating awesome and is finally sleep ing good for us again! i had to wake her up this AM to get ready to go to Kimmies (her bb sitters) and she was snoring up a storm in there. She must get that from me. B/c Bryan never snores! :) i do!! well i had better wrap things up here and head to get my precious babygirl!! :)

Have a great week!

9 Month pictures

I took Adelyn to get her 9 month pictures. They turned out adorable as you acn see. She is soo photogenic for such a little girl. all I have to do is look @ her and it puts a smile of my face. Lol im not a proud mom or anything. Just kiddin! well we sold our house. 4 1/2 days of being on the market. So we have been busy trying to find a new place for us. We close on our house on May 22nd. We put an offer on a really nice house in East Peoria today. We are waiting to hear results about that. We are super excited! Bryan has started summer hours and busy season, so he is back to working a ton. He is short a manager, so as soon as he gets another one hired and trained he wont be working AS much. I am still in class. I am really burnt out. It ends the end of June though. So not much longer. Adelyn is motoring everywhere these days. she just started yesterday taking a step or two not holding on to anything. she is a brave lil girl :) she has mastered crawling. She is eating more and more table food everyday. I met my parents @ Avantis yesterday for lunch and she loved their bread. She must get taht from momma b/c I could eat a loaf all to myself. well i had better get to cleaning my house. Hope everyone has a speedy week.
