Two important pieces of information.

Jeremy Brown is employed. 

Be excited. 

He went to training this morning and really liked it, it's only seasonal. But its a job!

And she is here. Who you ask?

 This thing. 

We left her in Redding when we moved hoping to sell it, but after four months decided she must love us to much to leave, and we missed her. And kinda need her now.

We met Jeremy's parents half way between houses yesterday for dinner and to pick her up.

It's safe to say Jeremy is glad she is here.

(Sometimes I think he worries more about his car than me, okay not really...but he would probably still send me through a car wash before his car.)

We are finally all moved in. Thank you to everyone who helped us move, we really appreciate all the help. Really it went pretty fast, we had a lot of time Saturday afternoon to unpack and by Sunday afternoon our bedroom was 90% unpacked and 79% organized, our kitchen was completely unpacked, organized and clean (floors and all...because they were covered in a kinda gross black dust, I found that out by looking at the bottom of my feet) and fresh cookies were in the cookie jar (half from subway the others I made).
When it comes to furniture and sorta major things, we still need few. Our miniature Ikea couch looks a little smaller than I hoped in our apartment, and is a little more blue than grey, but lets just say I had to find a new use for our end tables that were a good four inches taller than the back of our couch. We are using my hope chest as a TV stand at the moment and my dear sweat lovesac is still squished in the corner, of what will be baby's room, behind boxes of books and empty picture frames. I crawled over to it today to take a much needed nap (nine o'clock church is way to early) and when I woke up I realized Jeremy had very lovingly made sure I had his favorite stuffed animal to cuddle with in case I needed it and his baby blanket laid over me. Also our kitchen is missing some semi-important things like a microwave, toaster, waffle iron, mixer and blender...but my very thoughtful husband remembered PAM when he was at the store other day (I had forgotten on half a dozen occasions) so we are more than good to go.
Over all we love our apartment! It has lots of windows for lots of light, which I really like! It's in a super good location, it is just the right size for us and just the right amount of boring and clean for us to make cute. Downside: no ceiling fans and a drier that takes three hours to dry and smallish-medium load. We are very happy to be in our own home and use all our stuff. We are doing well and are settling in.

As for a baby undate: I am growing out of my clothes but I am that awkward stage between regular clothes and maternity clothes...my shorts are a smiggin too small to be comfortable in them for long periods of time and I am trying so hard to get used to looking down and seeing a larger than usually pouch...so if you see me in basketball shorts or yoga pants and a t-shirt try not to judge too much. Baby is about the size of a naval orange and weighs 2 to 3 oz. We are patiently waiting for October 10th to get here when we will finally know if we are having a boy or a girl.

On a side note...we don't have internet yet :/

WE ARE MOVING!

And we are so excited! The big day is Saturday.

I feel slightly over whelmed with the amount of stuff we have, I don't even know what we are going to do with it all when we get to our apartment...somehow I don't think five closets will be enough... 

We really are looking forward to moving and taking this next step in our lives...finally, it seemed like it would never get here.

This weekend...
On Friday I went shopping with my mom and attempted to help her decorate her new office, then after we ate dinner with Jeremy's parents, we went shopping with my mom again, this time at ross, then we helped her get pictures for a picture frame. And then we used my moms phone to facetime Kelly and talked to her for a long time, she gave us a tour of her new apartment and told us all about her job interviews.
On Saturday we went up to Medford to tour our apartment (well what will hopefully be our apartment) we are in love with it. It's nice and little and cute and we really like it. There was another couple viewing it at the same time (it was a little awkward, but we already have our application in so HA! But if they become our neighbors when the apartment upstairs is open we would be okay with that, they seemed like nice people). After we saw it we went to this nifty little book store, well it's a book exchange, everything in there is FREE. The rules on the door said something like
1. If you see something and think it belongs somewhere else, move it.
2. If you feel weird taking stuff, don't.
3. If you still feel weird taking stuff leave a cash donation at the door.
4. If you have a few minutes ask the volunteer on staff what you can do to help.
5. If you have a lot of time ask about becoming a regular volunteer.
Then outside they had a shed that was the "drop box" so you could just leave your donations. When we left the lady was very disappointed we were leaving empty handed. And their is a sign on the door that says "2 dollars at the door with keep us going". It was a really cool place so if anyone ever comes and visits us and you want to go let us know and we will take you! We also walked around the mall for a while until I was tired and grumpy then we left.
When we got back to town my mom wanted us to come over and go through all their books and take what we wanted then Amanda and her family was in town so we stayed and visited for a while then we went to dinner with Amanda and Jeremy and then we went to black light miniature golf, when we realized we wouldn't be making it to any of the movies, and then we went to cold stone. It was a lot of fun! And that is the story of our weekend.
