School is now in session!!!

Well, things are definitely changing around here. Yesterday was Dave's first day of school. He said he wants to treat it like a job. Be at school from 7 or 8 am until 4 or 5pm and try to get all his work before he comes home. We'll see how that works. I think it's going to be hard to adjust to Dave being gone during the days because we've been together a lot for the past month. I was getting nervous about it last week, wondering how I'd feel. I guess I just needed to get all that out of my system because it's been fine. I want to try to find things to do around town with Carson. There's still a lot I want and need to get done at home, so it's not too bad yet. The MBA program has a "partner's association" that plans events every week. I might get involved with that so I can meet some more people.

Carson is doing awesome and I love being a Mom. He's 11 weeks old now and a little over 12 lbs. I think he's about 25 inches long. He's changing all the time. Smiling a lot more, just starting to play with some toys and discovering his hands. Oh yeah, and drooling all over!!!He got his two month shots last week. I didn't know his face could get so red! I wish you all could see him and be part of his everyday life, but I know that this is where God wants us to be. We're still trying to be patient and rely on God to know when our house is going to sell. We had an offer on it last week, but they "low-balled" it, wanted us to pay all the closing costs and then carry a 10% loan for them so they wouldn't have to pay PMI. We were willing to work with them, but they didn't like our counter offer. It would have been really confusing and obviously God thought so too.

We haven't found a church yet, but that would require us to go actually go to a church. I have had no desire to go on Sunday mornings. We just aren't sure what we're looking for. We talked to some people the other night, from school, that go to a small church called The Upper Room. I'm actually excited to check it out sometime. They were used to doing church in the evenings (we didn't get into any more details) as well and were really excited when they found this church. Who knows? Well, we miss all of you and can't wait to see you again. Carson's awake now so I need to go!!
