Long overdue! A 'quick' update!

I am long overdue for a post and unfortunately am not able to add pictures to this one...our computer also decided to break down on us along with the others!

Here's our list of To Dos and what we have accomplished...(and still need to do)
1. Fix EVERYTHING that has broken down (or replace)
Jed has been wonderful at accomplishing this part! Our car is now fixed thanks mostly to our amazing friend, Adam, who repaired and replaced everything at no cost to him! The most recent item to break down is our computer and that is semi-fixed, hopefully enough so we can retrieve everything off of it (Thanks Austin)

2. Re-organize and de-junk EVERYTHING
Jed again has done mostly all of this! Thanks babe! We're just about done and ready to start packing! Beware though if you ever visit...there's not much space amongst our piles and boxes!

3. Visit SoCal and find a place to rent
This will happen next week...at least the visiting and looking part. I'm crossing my fingers I'll find a place. Yes I am talking about myself, I will be 6 weeks due and will be in Cali! Jed hopefully will have a job and will not be able to make it so his mom is coming with me! She has midwife experience so I trust her knowledge and judgment IF anything should happen!
WE ARE STILL IN NEED OF A PLACE TO STAY WHILE VISITING, IF ANYONE KNOWS ANYONE IN THE AREA (NEAR POMONA), PLEASE SEE IF WE CAN STAY WITH THEM (WE'LL EVEN SHARE A BED-NO PROBLEM)!

4 Figure out insurance, register Reid for Kindergarten, and finalize school stuff
Jed's doing the school stuff and is pretty much done, just needing a physical. He's had to get about 10 shots already! Hopefully when I'm in Cali I'll be able to figure out the insurance and Reid's schooling.

5. Figure out how to get everything to Cali
The biggest thing is having enough money to move...like I said earlier, hopefully Jed will have a job and that will cover moving expenses. We will be moving white-trash style...in a horse trailer and are blessed to have amazing friends who are lending us there's for 6 weeks (hopefully we don't need it THAT long!) Thanks Roger and Kellie!

6. Pack up, load up, and move!
That will come at the end of June and beginning of July. No specific dates yet and it's driving me crazy!!!

7. oh yeah...and have a baby!
Unless she chooses to come earlier, June 14th will be her birthday! I need something definite (or close to) in my life so I will be induced then! We will bless her on July 4th!

Things are slowly coming along and decisions and dates are finally being finalized! Although we still have A LOT to do before the baby comes! (And then more after she arrives). During this whole process I have come to realize that we truely have amazing friends! Thank you to all who have helped us and have offered to help, we really can't do it all without you!
