Well...we're moving into a house!!! Yay! We're still a little cautious about being super happy about it because something could always pop up, but as of right now we'll be renting the house from the guy who used to work up here. You wouldn't even believe it if you heard how the Lord has worked things out, even for the guy we're renting from. He is giving us an awesome deal (we're renting his house for less than we rent this apartment) and he is not having to worry about losing money on his end because of a blessing from his dad. There is one downside, and that is to keep our lower rent we signed a six month lease a couple months ago. Because we want to break the lease they are gonna charge us an extra $1,000.00 (eeekkk!!!) so I am trying not to stress about that, and just trust that God will work this out. The house should be all cleared out and ready to be moved into on Aug. 5th. I don't know exactly when we will start to move stuff over. We've got to see if we know anyone with a pick-up truck that we could "borrow", and Jeremy is off of work on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so we may have to wait until the week after that. The good part is we can schedule our other goods to be delivered and the movers will unload all of that. I'm so excited for Jakob to have a yard to play in. Last night I didn't sleep too well (we drank coffee late last night) and every time I was awake I could hear my neighbors talking loudly and walking around (and using their washer/dryer at 1:00 in the morning) and I just thanked the Lord that we will be out of this apartment soon. I really like my neighbors. They are nice people, but they work an odd schedule, and when we're in bed they're awake, and when we're awake they're in bed. Speaking of which, Jakob has slept through the night for four of the last five nights! ;) the one time he woke up I heard the neighbors new baby screaming and they were pacing trying to quiet the baby, so I know that woke him up. I changed Jakey's nap schedule. He goes down at 10:00 now and then down again at 2:30/3:00 depending on when he gets a little fussy. Then he goes to bed at 8:45/9:00 at night. It is working really well for us. I bought real oats this week to make Jakob oatmeal instead of the little ground up baby oatmeal. He's not real crazy about it. This morning was our first morning to try it though, so we'll keep trying. The baby oatmeal doesn't seem to keep him full very long, so I wanted to try the real deal. Well, thanks everyone who prayed about the house situation with us. I will post pics once we get over there. Hope you all have a great weekend :)

Yay, so excited for y'all. I know it will be wonderful to have a place of your own again and not be constantly woken up at odd hours, not to mention the smoke problem. God is always good, but these extra little kisses on the cheek are really special. Love you all, M♥M
