Life Changes...

A lot has been going on here in the Layfield home:) First off, we SOLD our house this week!!!! PRAISE GOD! We put it up on the market a couple weeks ago, and then last weekend a young couple called on our flyer. He said they weren't sure they were buying yet, but wanted to come look at it. I was franticly running around trying to set up the house like a new home. Luckily, I had just finished my big cleaning that I do on Mondays. They came and were gone in about 20 mins. The real estate agent gave me the best compliment I can recieve. She said our house was the cleanest used house she had ever seen. I really take that to heart, because I take a lot of pride in my home. Some people think I am too obsessive and clean to much. Well, I guess it paid off:) I am so thankful to God for carrying this load for us. I am so thankful we have been through the buying/selling a home process. We have really learned a lot. I am also thankful for a husband who knows how to do all of this.

We also purchased a new family vehicle. Its amazing how much less space we had when Elias came along:) I am also thankful for God's provision for things we don't necessarily need. The extra space is just a bonus! But, it is a bonus I am in LOVE with! I L.O.V.E. my new 2011 Ford Explorer!!

Next..my boys!!! Wyatt amazes me everyday! He is so observant and smart these days!
He is constantly helping me, chatting with me, wanting to cook, and play outside!! I am so proud of him! Elias is my precious baby! He is definitely different than Wyatt already, and I love it. I am trying to soak everything up! It goes so fast! I am constantly reminded of how precious of a time this is! From pregnancy to present, it is a time to be joyful and thankful. I am amazed at how some people seem to only find the negative in pregnancy...Despite the sickness, exhaustion, etc:), I loved being pregnant...what an incredible blessing!

I am so thankful for my family! My sisters are coming out soon, and quite possibly my mom!! I don't think we will get back to GA for a while, so I am thankful for them coming to me. I can only go so long without seeing them:)

All else is well here! I will update with pictures in a couple of days!!
Love,
RL

I am so out of the loop! Tell us why you are selling your house? Where are you moving to? How exciting!
