So--it's been about 2 months since I've posted. A whole heck of a lot has happened. Where to start?
Change #1: Joe has changed jobs. He is actually still working part-time doing contract work for his law firm, but he had a new opportunity open up and we decided to take it.
Change #2: This new opportunity is in Sacramento, so we have moved! We packed up our house and moved away from friends we'd come to love in the bay area. We're currently living at my parents' while we look for a house. We are planning on buying--an exciting but exhausting endeavor. We're hoping to find something soon. We did love the bay area but we're excited to be back closer to family and where we can see ourselves staying long-term.
Change #3: We are expecting baby #4 at the end of December! This was a bit of a surprise but we couldn't be more thrilled. We're hoping we can have a repeat of Nate's calm, uneventful pregnancy. I'll be returning to the doctors I loved in Sacramento--another benefit of moving back.
As you can imagine, it has been a stressful couple of months for us. We've been so grateful for all of the help from friends and family, though, and we're excited for what the future holds.
So, now that I've laid all this out there, maybe I can go back and try to update the blog. That is, if pregnancy sickness doesn't stop me... :)
