After spending about three months house shopping, we finally decided to bite the bullet and look at a new community that is just being developed. We were just not having any luck as there wasn't much on the market. We did put on offer on one house, but backed out after the inspection. The house would just end up costing us too much! And after a second offer was accepted, but was the second acceptance we were feeling pretty defeated. The development turned out to be perfect and we bought ourselves a little piece of dirt, which will be the site of our new home spring of 2013. Timing will be much better as we will be able to wait to put our house on the market until shortly before our house is complete, Baby C will be a few months old and we will hopefully be able to settle into parenthood! We have started the process of picking everything out, and are really excited that this will be our home!!! And a new, clean home at that!
Now knowing that we will be in our current home for the next 6-7 months we were able to start a room for the baby. Scott had a dream about a piece of wall art that he thought would look good, so he came home from work one night with the wood, paint and a drawing ready to help us put it together. He cut the pieces of wood to size and layed it out for us to see.
Next we painted. Dark brown, white and lime green.
Once it dried, Scott nailed them all into place and we added it to Baby C's room. Right above his crib. I LOVE it! It matches the bedding and crib we picked out perfectly! And I love even more that Scott came up with this idea and put it together. He is going to be an amazing dad and this just proves it! I love to see his excitement over his little boy!!
We were lucky enough to be able to purchase a set of tickets from my friend Sara again this year to watch the Broncos. We went to a preseason game and had a blast watching Peyton Manning play with his new team! We even snuck down during the fourth quarter and got to see them all really close up!!
Sara invited me to the home opener against the Steelers!! It meant SO much to me, as I think some of my friends would assume I wouldn't want to be doing these things at this point!! They are wrong, and I'm so glad Sara gets me!! I had so much fun! And Manning led the Broncos to a win!
This guy gave us a huge scare! We left him at my parents for a couple hours to go sign some paperwork on the new house and when we got to their house to pick him up we could tell something was wrong. He didn't greet us with quite the same excitement he normally does and when Scott touched his side, Watson groaned in discomfort. We took him to the Emergency vet where they thankfully ruled out Bloat and a blockage! We really didn't want either of those. We were ordered home with Pepcid as he was showing to have gas in his intestines. After no change, I took him to see Traci the next morning. She repeated xray's and found a lot of gas built up in his pancreas. This normally means pancreatitis, however, he had no fever and was not getting sick at all! She treated him with pain meds and iv fluids to open the vessels out of his pancreas. He was able to come home with us that night and by the next evening was feeling much better!! We are so thankful it wasn't anything too serious and that we have the best vet!
And he was back in the pool, happy as could be just a few weeks later!
