Are we moving or what?

So...Mike from the management company came over this morning to take pics to put our place online for renters. Last night we were working until 11pm to make sure the place was picture ready, and I still had things out! Oye! Really nice guy, noticed I had KLOVE on and asked what church I went to. He's a Christian as well...it was really nice to be noticed as a Christian this morning, not sure why, but it was :)
We were talking about time lines and he said that asking for a renter for May was unrealistic. Yeah, and me packing alone for 2 weeks is unrealistic as well! It's crazy and has been keeping me up at night, trying to figure out how I am going to get everything done. So....we're putting it out there, at a lower price than what we'd like, but at a competitive price. Let's hope someone bites! We're now thinking maybe out of here by June. I'm hoping we can have everything fall into place with the house we want by then! We're still going to need a short term rental, and that will be a bit of a hassle, but I think it's something we can handle...if we get enough people willing to help us! Whatever is meant to happen will happen. I like the idea of staying here another month. This is our first place, where we put our stamp on things, where we brought our daughter home to...so many memories........

Are we ready for this? I think so. It's scary...a new mortgage, lifestyle change, more room, more responsibility...are we ready for this?! Hmmmmm......

New words!

My baby girl is growing up SO fast! Last night after dinner we were watching the swimming video I took that day. Delanah loved watching herself :) As she was watching, she noticed when Miss Cindy (her instructor) was pointing to the fish and bubbles on her swim suit and touched her belly and said "bubble"! First time for that! Gee...you think she likes swimming? Today as I was dressing her in her suit there, she pointed to the mural of the fish and made the sign "fish"! I have been working on that sign with her for about 4 months now! Woo-hoo!!!! Just this week she has really started signing "thank you" when I prompt her, never too early to start on manners!

Time seems to be just rushing by. She is 17 months old already! She is a great swimmer and loves the water, my little fish. 3 of her canines have broken through, the other is on the cusp and her top 2 year molars are coming in...she almost has a full set of teeth! Oh my goodness!!!! The teeth are causing her heck, my poor baby, and it does make her fussier at times, but a bonus is that she is very cuddly as well. Ahh...got to love those cuddles!
