To say that we at the Moore household are a little overwhelmed right now is the understatement of the year! We have tons of changes happening and all at one time. However, I am convinced that this is the way it is supposed to be. I am a firm believer that things happen for a reason, and I'm doing my best to embrace all of these changes the best I can. But, as most of you know, I'm terrified of change and the unknown. Here's a little look at what's going on in our lives these days.
1. We're going to have a BABY... again! Manning is going to be a BIG brother around December 26. I've been to the dr twice already, and Baby Moore #2 is doing just fine! At 7 weeks, the heartbeat was 131 bpm. At 8 weeks, 170 bpm.
We feel very blessed that God trusts us with another little one. As most of you remember, I had a fear that I would never be able to have children, and now I'm going to be a mommy of 2. Wow is the only word that comes to mind right now. :o)
While we are very thankful,
2. Cody got a new J-O-B! He started his first week this week as the City of Osceola's Accounting Director. He loves it so far, and I'm so thankful that this opportunity just kinda presented itself and came out of nowhere. It's amazing how God does that! We were having a hard time getting the ball rolling for our move to Jonesboro. Nothing seemed to be working out. Now, we know why. It was God's plan for us to stay close to home, and now that I'm expecting, I think that's EXACTLY what we need to do. You all know what a family person I am, and a whole hour was just a little too far away for me.
3. As I mentioned above, our moving plans have changed drastically. Because of Cody's new job, we have to move inside Osceola city limits... so we're trying to sell our house and are planning to move as soon as possible. At the moment, we are trying to decide between buying/building a house. If we can find one we like, we'll buy. If not, add building a house to our overwhelming to-do list!
4. Before all of these other changes took place, Cody and I bought an embroidery/monogramming machine, and we've bought websites, tax id #s, and the whole bit to start our own little home business. In the near future, we will be opening Doodlebugz! We are in the early stages, and I'm working on learning how to work my machine (in between sick spells that is). I'm signed up for several classes, and hopefully, we'll have that rolling in no time! We look forward to providing you with cute kids' clothes and personalized products!

My head starts spinning just talking about everything that's happening... but like I said, everything happens for a reason, so I'm just gonna take it one day at a time!
