Family Update

On July 23rd, 2011 our family packed up and headed off to NW Arkansas. We found out that Tony got a job at Latco as the Sales Coordinator about three weeks before we moved. It was a wool-wind! Oh did I mention that we have 12 week old twin boys! There was so much that needed to be done and being stressed was an understatement, but we knew that this was the path that God wanted us to take. He provided everything along the way. The 15 hour trip with the boys went better than anyone could ever imagine. We were so nervous about taking the boys on such a long trip when they were only 9 weeks old. They slept almost the WHOLE time! What a blessing! They are the best travelers, the Lord was really looking out for us there. Instead of taking the trip in two days like we planned we drove all the way through! The move was very emotional for us. We love SC and we were very sad to say goodbye to all our family and friends we were leaving behind. 

Since being in AR things have been working out really well! One thing I was really stressed about was finding a job when we moved here. I was torn because I wanted to spend all my time with the boys, but I  thought that financially there was no other choice. Come to find out the Lord has provided everything we need through Tony's salary and I have been able to stay at home with the boys. Growing up I always thought that I would be a working mom and there was no question about it. I never knew how much being a mom would change my life, for the good! I love being a mom more than anything in the world and besides being a wife that is my biggest priority! Tony and I decided that I would look for a part-time job but there is no rush! So for now Im enjoying being the best wife and mom I can be!

When we moved here we knew that we didn't want to be locked into a 12 month lease because we are so ready to own a home! Right now we are renting a duplex for 6 months, while looking for our home. We are still in the very baby stages of looking and all that comes with with buying a house, but we are excited about that next step in our lives! 

Ethan and Eli are doing so well. They are growing very fast! They meet their new doctor on Friday and we are all anxious to see what they weigh! I really hope we like their new doctor, I've heard really great things about her. I will keep everyone updated when we find out the results on Friday! The family that we have here in AR have enjoyed the boys so much! It has been so neat to see how everyone is reacting to them. They have truly been such a blessing, not only to Tony and I, but also to everyone else! 

Keep us in your prayers as we find our way here! God Bless!!!
