Homeless!

Yep, it's true - we are officially homeless! Lol!! Michael is officially done with AIT, and is awaiting orders for the next part of his schooling. They've told him pretty certainly that no more schooling will be done before the start of 2010, so we're in the process of finding a place to live - preferably close to church. (Any prayers regarding this matter would be HUGELY appreciated!)

At this moment, we are at my parents' house - we've been in GA for the past couple of weeks, and TN (visiting Michael's sister, brother-in-law, and nieces) the week before that. We had to come back to MO to get some of our things, though we can't get all of it just yet, since we have nowhere to put anything! Lol!! I think for now, we'll be staying at an extended stay hotel (probably just for a week, maybe two at the most), until we find the home where we will live. We've been searching diligently. Even from here in MO, we're still checking listings online, and making calls left and right! I must say, I'll feel much better once we get all settled.

I haven't even ordered Jared's 1st grade school curriculum yet - ugh! I'd love to get started, but I'm afraid we'd get started, just to have to take a few days off to get moved, so I'm just going to wait until we're all settled in to our permanent home then start him. He's a sharp cookie - we'll get caught up in no time!

Oh, and I have MORE big news!! In my last post I announced that my sister-in-law (brother's wife) is expecting their first baby. Since that post, we've also found out that one of my OTHER sisters-in-law (hubby's sister) is also expecting!! Woo hoo!!!! This pregnancy is a particularly special blessing, as it was not planned by anyone other than God!! I just love surprise pregnancies!! Anyway, Angel and Ken are super excited, though somewhat shocked!! Their little bundle of joy is due at the end of March. I can't believe I'm going to get TWO little nieces and/or nephews in a period of 2 months!!! I can't wait!! Now, if Jen and James, and Holly and Jim could just get on the ball, we could up that number to 4 - hehehe!!!
