Making the most of the time we have!!

Chris dropped the bomb on us a few weeks ago that his work maybe taking him to Arizona...well, it happened. They are leaving Wednesday the 8th. And Nick (cousin) decided he wanted to go work with Chris too!

Now mind you, this is hard, but taking baby Colten from us is the hardest of all. I think Mom has offered to just keep him for them. Needless to say Bridget said "NO" quickly.

Speaking of quickly, how quick can a new mommy pack a whole house and 2 boys up with very little help? Pretty quick. She turned her keys in to Mrs. Barbara yesterday. They have been staying at Mom and Dad's since they've packed everything up. This weekend, I think they are staying with me maybe until they leave.

So what do you do when you know your baby brother, your new best friend, your 2 nephews, and cousin (Nick is going too), are leaving for a year? You make the most of the time you have! I was scheduled to be on the road a few days this week, I rescheduled them for the end of next week. That way as soon as I get off I'm going to Mom and Dad's to get some "good baby" loves!! Chris will be home from Alabama this weekend, Nick, Brandy & kids will be home, so we plan on spending plenty of time together.

Aunt Chonda has already checked plane tickets!! about $220 round trip. So no one get offended when I say I can't do something that I'm broke...I'm just saving up for plane fair!! I figure I can fly over about every 2 months...They plan on coming home for Christmas. They know better than keeping the new baby away the first Christmas!!!

Please keep Chris, Bridget, the kids and my family in your prayers as we adjust to this change!!!

I know you're going to miss that sweet baby. You're right--it was a shock! I expect Stacy may be saving her pennies too! :)
