Well, July was a VERY long month. My mom and I spent the whole month stripping wallpaper(with some help from my cousins Micah, Christian and Ian). Zerrell became addicted to frozen blueberries, Mary Poppins and Cinderella. Ted finished at Ft. Eustist with the second highest grade point average of his class and made it home from Virginia in 3 days!! Driving 1200 in one day.He was a sight for sore eyes, zerrell just started screaming with delight the minute she saw him and wouldn't let him out of her sight. I broke down and cried, like i said it had been a LONG month. Ted's parents came out to help us with our new place and THANK GOD they did. We all worked like mad for about 10 days, painting, stripping more wallpaper, sanding, priming, and basically turning the house upside down. BUT lots of progress was made, room have been painted, cabinets have paint on them, and we have a projected move in date of labor day weekend.
Zerrell is growing fast. She has already out grown 2 pairs of sandles this summer. She SO close to talking, but is very verbal already. She has LOTS of sound effects, and hand gestures. And like i said loves Mary Poppins and Cinderella.
Our new baby we found out is a BOY!!! His name will be Harper Milo. He is already quite active inside of me and responds to Teds voice. Zerrell points to my belly button when we ask her where the baby is.
Ted is leaving tomorrow for his two week summer training with the national guard, so that will be hard. My car got broken into too. They only stole our satelite radio reciver but that alone caused me 5 hours of work with cleaning up the glass, calling the insurance company, taking it to the auto body shop, getting a rental car(which sucks)etc etc. We still don't have our car back yet.
I can't believe that August is almost over! Ted is temporarly working at the AVCRAD and we are trusting in God that he will get a perminent position very soon, so please keep that in your prayers as well.
It will be exciting to get into our new place and start preparing for this new little guy to come in December.
