For the Love of Mo: Season of Change

Wow, so much is happening so fast I better write it down so I don't forget! First off, we are moving! Yes, our sweet lil house is in foreclosure sale on Aug 20th. We were one of the many that decided to get into a silly loan with "options" to pay a small mortgage and the have the remainder of the total mortgage payment tacked onto the "back end" of the loan each month, meaning the amount we actually bought the house for was getting higher every month. BIG PROBLEMO when the economy crashed! We figured we could pay the lesser amount until we started making more money and could pay the full amount. Basically we're screwed! I will miss this cute little house it's been so good to us, I love the single level floor plan, the vaulted ceiling, Shay's room and the backyard that's just big enough. So many memories, good, bad, sad and happy.
We're moving in with Mom and Dad....woah I know! They are moving into a 5 bedroom single level house in San Juan, and offered 3 of the bedrooms to us and cheap rent! We're jumping on the opportunity.Who can beat built-in babysitters? Plus the house has newly remodeled bathrooms which I am so thrilled about, have you seen my bathrooms? YUCK!
Picketlane Childcare is coming to an end.....almost. I will try to keep our 2 1/2 year old girl Audrey at the new house and see how it works. Ashley will keep Amelia with the boys at her house. We have to say goodbye to baby Carter, but he's probably moving to Orange anyway. He'll be 1 this month and it's been amazing to watch him grow and learn his first year of life. He's been through some difficulties but hopefully he'll have a better 2nd year and grow into a fun little boy.
The most EXCITING news is that baby no. 2 is on the way YAY!! We JUST found out and I am probably only 2 weeks along, so keep me and the lil baby in your prayers for a healthy, successful pregnancy and birth. I couldn't be more thrilled and happy that Shay will have a lil sibling to play with and help Mommy take care of. Due date is sometime mid April.
Mo has 2 days left of class and he will be completely done with his business degree! I am so proud of him, he not only will have a degree he did it with all A's!!! He is the most dedicated, loyal, committed and disciplined person I have ever met and I am so lucky to have him as my Hubby! I love you babe!

Daily life....MESSY!

Tantrum throwing in full effect.

OH MAN, the mischief has begun! This is just a glimpse of her new
mischievous faces when she knows she's in trouble.
Peas and rice for makeup is the new look, don't you know?!

She loves to give juicy, puckered up kisses to everyone!

We (my good friends Jaclyn and Jenny) took the kiddos the OC Fair and we had a blast. The babes ate ears of corn, and ice cream cones. We listened to a live band and danced in the street, then we decided to go on the freakiest ride ever, I was praying for my life and will NEVER go on it again! The babes stayed in their strollers with Jenny, and watched us being thrown into the air on the ridiculous ride. It was a great night.
