Moving!

We are excited to finally be moving into our new home tomorrow! Hopefully everything will go well despite the freezing cold temperatures! We'll update later with photos, etc.

On a completely different note, Asher is two months old today! He's chubby and adorable. We're so happy to have him in our lives!

Taking things a day at a time

Jon is now officially back to work while Heidi stays at home with the kids. Each day has its' own struggles as Tatiana deals with not being the center of attention anymore and all of us deal with not getting enough sleep. Tatiana has recently decided that she's too old for a nap or for going to bed before 11:30 p.m. most nights. This has created a challenge for us as sleep-deprived parents. We're all just trying to get everything figured out and know that in time it will be.

Another struggle for us is getting Asher's acid reflux under control. He's on his second medication but we aren't sure that it is doing anything for him. We have been looking into buying a special sleep positioner specifically for babies with acid reflux but with it being expensive to buy from the manufacturer we're looking to eBay and hoping to find a deal there. If this works, it would be a great help to Heidi as she spends most nights sleeping in a chair to keep Asher upright. Please pray that God would provide this for us in some way or another. Asher seems to be a laid-back kid, compared to Tatiana at this age, but because of the acid reflux he constantly needs to be held.

We're looking forward to moving into our new house soon...hopefully. It seems that the status of the move-in date keeps changing. We're waiting for the work that the financier has required of the seller to be done on the home before they can do the appraisal. Once those things are done, we can move forward. As of now, the closing date is set for January 20th with the move-in date sometime afterward in January.
