February

Selling our house and keeping it spotless day in and day out has taken over the last couple of months.   We had an offer come in the middle of February, but it was contingent on how the house appraised-if it appraised lower than the offer than we had the choice whether we would sell for the low price or put it back on the market.  Luckily, we found out yesterday it appraised for asking price and it is set to close April 15 so we feel like we can breathe again!  Now I am trying to catch up with the rest of my life, like the blog, that has been neglected while the house was on the market.  Here's most of February in pictures...

Daxton.  This kid kept us busy on the days leading up to his surgery.  Not only is he a full of life 2 year old anyway, but he was super angry all the time.  Between not sleeping and being in pain all the time, he was just hard to deal with.  His surgery date was set for 2/17 and we looked forward to the hope that it would help him become a happier kiddo.  I'll do a separate post on his surgery.

Daxton REALLY wanted a part in trying on Easter dresses.  He thought it was SO cool.  The poor kid really needs a brother!

"Mrs. Gibson" plays school every day when she gets home from school.  She can talk to her "class" by herself for literally hours at a time.  It's impressive.

Maren and Jake's baby, Evelyn, was born!  All the kids are smitten, but Maylee especially loves Evelyn.  She is forever wanting to hold her and feed her.

Lots of work days around the house!
