Baby Shower : )

Today Granny Nancy threw a beautiful shower for Landon! There was lots of good food to eat and a cute and yummy cake. Aunt Jami and Aunt Patti helped with the food and other arrangements and Grandpa Jeff helped with some decorating. And Grammy Sonya flew up from South Carolina! Landon got lots of very cute clothes, blankets and other comfy things. There were also lots of other items to help Mommy and Daddy take care of him including bottles, first aid kits and bathing items. Landon will have so many people to love him when he gets here!

There are only 5 more weeks before Landon's due date and Jessi is getting very big and rather uncomfortable at times. We can't wait for him to arrive...hopefully it's soon!

Paul got hired!

As most of you know Paul has been waiting since June of 2006 to get hired by the FAA to pursue his career in Air Traffic Control. We finally found out that he has been hired at Cleveland Center located in Oberlin, OH. This is about a 25 minute drive from Norwalk and we are very excited about it. Paul will be spending 3 months in Oklahoma City for some additional training once all of his paperwork goes through. We don't know when he will be leaving but it should be no earlier than April 1st. This is not something that we are particularly looking forward to since we will have a newborn baby to think about but we'll get through it sure enough!

A Home of Our Own!

We have been watching the housing market this past year just waiting for the right time to buy. Well, it may not be the right time for us, due to Landon's birth and Paul's leaving for a couple months but we found the PERFECT house.
On February 5th we put in an offer for a beautiful home here in Norwalk and...they accepted! As of March 14th, 2007 (proposed closing date) we will be the proud owners of a 3 bedroom, 3 bath (1 full, 2 half) 1700 square foot house. The house needs no immediate home improvements and we will just be able to move in and get comfortable. It has a large back yard with screened in patio and is located on a street with very little traffic. It is about 3-4 houses away from Maplehurst Elementary School so Landon will be able to walk there starting in Kindergarten :) So funny that we're thinking about him walking to school when he's not even here yet...hehe!
