Kinsey-4 Weeks

I can hardly believe that Kinsey was already 4 weeks this past Tuesday and officially a month old yesterday! It has gone by WAY too fast. And with Christmas, packing, moving, etc., the next month with probably also be a bit of a blur. But here are a few pictures from Tuesday to capture Kinsey's 4 week milestone!


Jackson has been getting lots of new BIG brother presents . . . here he is playing with one of his new favorites! Of course, he LOVES anything from the movie Cars so a Mater toy that actually has sound effects and drives itself on the floor was a BIG hit with him. It is just so much fun watching him use his imagination while he plays. The things he comes up with!!

We were down at Salem yesterday and today trying to get a few things set up to prepare for our move. We got a PO Box set up to start forwarding mail and then of course a checking account. And we were able to look at a few more houses too. There is one good possibility, but we really can't do much of anything until we sell ours. Thankfully, a woman in the church in Salem has graciously offered one of her homes to us to stay while we are in limbo. So we plan to move our necessities there on the 17th. We will have the rest of our house in Rochester packed, but will leave everything there until we actually sell and close on it. We know God is taking care of this whole situation, but we pray that he will grant us patience as we wait on his timing.

I have been working on getting out our Christmas card/letter out along with Kinsey's announcements. My goal is to get them all done and out this next week. Hopefully that actually happens! I do have all my Christmas shopping done and most everything wrapped so that is one less thing on the "to do" list. With moving and everything, we decided not to mess with the Christmas tree or much of any decorations (except for stockings and Jackson's Veggie Tales nativity set). So it feels VERY weird at our house in Rochester. I usually have all the decorations out and lights on our house by now. It just isn't the same this year! But fortunately, we will pretty much be at my parent's house after we move stuff down to Salem on the 17th until Christmas. So that will help!
