All Moved In

Well, we are finally getting settled here in Monroe. Justin has been working at his new job for three weeks now and loves it. Everyone at church has been so welcoming. The boys are enjoying our new yard and their new room. They are now sharing a room and are doing really well. I was nervous about it, but they are doing great. They talk to each other until they fall asleep at night. It is so sweet to hear them laughing and talking until we have to go in and tell them to quiet down. We have a guest room, so come visit us sometime. We are also working on a play/"school" room for the boys. I ordered several things online and am waiting patiently for them to come in.

I have not taken one picture since we have been here. I was just too busy and then I left my camera in Texas last week. I really need to take some soon.

I am ready to get the boys on some kind of schedule again. I am missing our routine! Sawyer is having a bit of a hard time with the transition. He cries every time I move a piece of furniture or get rid of something. He has had enough with all the changes. I think getting on a schedule where he knows what to expect will really help him. Jax doesn't seem to mind the changes. We do miss our friends and family in Texas, but are excited about the new friendships we are developing as well as old friends we have been reunited with. I will take some pics soon and try to be better about updating.

Hi Meredith,
So glad to hear that you are getting settled. We are still praying for you guys and are so thankful to you. Have a great week!

Tell Justin that just because he is closer to Franklin Parish now, it doesn't mean he can have this haircut.

We miss y'all. Hopefully Sawyer will be recovered enough by Sept. 19 to feel up for a football game. It looks like they are adding a lot of kid friendly stuff:

"Louisiana Tech will also be offering an expanded Kids Zone at all home football games this year. The Kids Zone will be located on the hill between the Thomas Assembly Center and Joe Aillet Stadium along Alabama Avenue and will include multiple inflatables, dunking booth, face-painting, games including a brand new Bulldog Toss, free refreshments, and for select games additional entertainment such as balloon animal artist and a clown. The Tech cheerleaders and members of Tech fraternities and sororities will be helping in the Kids Zone while there will also be picture opportunities with Champ and Tech XX.

For any questions on the Tech Kids Zone, contact Leah Beasley at 318-257-5332 or lbeasley@latech.edu. "

Thanks Stephany and Teresa.

Austin, that sounds fun. I can't wait to see you guys in September. Maybe I will send the boys with you and Sawyer and stay indoors with your pregnant wife.

Austin said...

Yes, Sawyer and I will take your boys to a game. I just hope the oldest one behaves himself.

Oh, I meant to say I would send the boys with you and Justin. That is funny! You know I need to get more rest when I mix up my husband with my 3 year old.
