Hey my sweet beloved brothers and sisters,
It's been such a long while since I've actually been able to sit down and blog about all of our new & exciting events going on in our life. I apologize for being MIA lately! I have missed reading and seeing how all of your families have been doing!
Well here are a few updates on us...
- On April 16th, The Greene's closed on our first house!! What a great feeling that was! It's funny when all was signed and done and we were official we sat in the car and Jarrod said "closing wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be" (signing all the documents) It went so quickly and much to our surprise we got a few sweet blessings.
1.Our mortgage was cheaper than we anticipated! Praise God.
2. We got repairs made & money to fix other things we needed done!
We feel tremendously blessed. The Lord was so sweet to us.
The last week and a half we have been slowly painting and taking things to our new home. It's so awesome to see things start to come to "life". I can't wait to put the finishing touches in and then have my sweet little family moved in and then have a family Movie/snuggle night! woohooo
here is a sneak peak of the house being painted:
Isn't my Hubby so sweet!! =D Painting the hallway

- This last weekend we had a HUGE garage sale at my mother in laws house for my Brother and Sister in law. All the money that was made went to benefit there funds for In-vitro fertilization (IVF). The garage sale went amazing(praise the Lord) and now they are well on there way to starting a family of there own. We couldn't be more excited for them! Please continue to pray that the procedure goes well and that the Lord will bless her womb during this process!! We serve a mighty and gracious God, who can make all things possible! I pray their need is met! They will be such great parents!
- Hunter has been doing some pretty awesome new things lately. He has started saying "da da" and it is a CONSTANT thing! woohooo. He has also been putting the sign "daddy" with it on occasion, however most of the time he will say da da but be signing Momma. I am so thrilled to see his achievements!
Hunter has also is on the edge of sitting independently! Today with his ITDS he would sit independently for about 10 seconds then would sway to a slouch position. (but would catch himself with his hands) he has sat like this a few times in the last few days but I thought maybe it was just an "accident" sit. but today he wanted to show us that he is SOOOOO close!
I am in awe of all the things the Lord is doing in my life right now and I am so thankful for all the wonderful blessings he has given us. I pray that I can continue to seek him for my every need and lean on him for strength when I am weak!
Lord, You are worthy of ALL my PRAISE!
Looks awesome. Love what you did before you painted the walls. We did the same thing. The kids, my hubby, and I left our love messages to one another.
