I'm Back!

After a whirlwind of busyness to start off our new year, we are finally settling into our temporary apartment that we'll be renting until our house is finished. Hopefully we'll be able to move in at the end of February!

We're so glad to be back in Fort Collins. We really missed this city, the church that we had been attending over the summer, and all the wonderful friends we made. Jace and I are so excited to raise Liam and the rest of our future children in such a great community.

Liam has adjusted well to his new surroundings. Since our apartment here has two bedrooms, Liam will transition into sleeping in his own room after my mom flies back to New Mexico today. She was able to help us move up to Colorado by driving our car while I sat in the backseat with Liam and Jace drove the moving truck.

Speaking of helping us with our move, I must thank everyone who helped us pack up and leave Las Cruces as well as those who were here to help and greet us when we arrived in Fort Collins. Our little family appreciated the outpouring of love and graciousness we received from our friends and family who rearranged their schedules to be available to help us.

Now that we're somewhat settled I have lots of plans and goals for the year 2013! I recently finally opened up my new sewing machine that was a gift from Jace for my birthday back in October. I have so many sewing projects that I've been pinning on Pinterest for months now! I plan on making diaper covers, a car seat canopy, a casserole carrier, baby hats, an apron, and much more over the coming months. I also plan on doing lots of memory-making crafts with Liam along with working on his baby book and exploring the world of homemade baby food.

I'm so excited to settle into a family routine that doesn't involve school or moving. I praise God that he's blessed us with the opportunity to begin the new year in a great city with so many exciting things to look forward to!
