Yeah For Friday

This was a good and bad week. First the good. The house plans are done and look great. I have met with the builder so many times to get things just perfect. We learned a lot from our first building experience in Michigan and it has helped in better planning with this house. It has been a bonus that the builders office is just behind where we are living. He is kid tolerant and lets me bring the kids to meetings and drops things off at the house. This week we picked out flooring and cabinets to see if what we want would fit in the budget - yeah they did!

The builder went over a building proposal (list of everything included in price) and the price was just under what we were comfortable spending. We put money down on the lot and David is working on getting a construction loan. The builder is eager to start and thinks the house can be completed in 4 months. That would put us in the new house the end of November which is when our lease is up in our current house. It is amazing how everything is working out - praise God for that!!!

Now for the bad. Jett was sick this week and crankier and clingier than normal. He had a fever for 3 days and would not let me put him down. If I had to do something, he occasionally settled for one of the girls holding him. He was very cozy, but I didn't get anything done...including making dinner. We have scrounged for food that is simple to make or had take out every night, but I kind of liked not having to cook! Yesterday Jett threw up on his favorite blanket and lost it because I wouldn't give it to him until it was washed.

I am not sure what was wrong with him, but this morning he woke up without a fever and in a better mood. He ate some breakfast and is playing on his own. Well, I hear him crying downstairs...I better go.
