Home Sweet Home

A week from tomorrow we will be loading up the Uhaul with all the items and memories that we have accumulated in our first home. We have lived here for a little over 5 years and I can't believe all that has happened in this home.

* We got married (2004)

* Melissa finished her masters degree (2004)

* Morgan graduated from Purdue (2007)

* Morgan got a job (2008)

* Avery and Wyatt came along (2009)

Not to mention all the happenings of our families - two of our siblings were married, my mom battled and won against leukemia, my sister moved to the UAE for a year, there have been numerous additions to the Asay family including the newest due in January, not to mention the addition in the Kemphues family due in September.

We also had great fun making home improvements over the past five years. We added laminate floors throughout our home, a tile backsplash, painted all the walls at some point (at least twice), and added landscaping and a deck to the backyard. I'd say we had a lot of fun!

Needless to say we have created many memories here and will miss our humble abode. However, we are excited to move into a house that will accomodate our growing family. If you are reading this blog I know you have probably shared in some of our memories and we are looking forward to including you in the memories yet to be made!

Bear-y Big

Wow - it has really been a month since our last post! I guess everyone will be surprised at how much Wyatt and Avery have changed since this post will be mainly about them. A & W are now 16 weeks old and closing in on that 4 month date of July 12th. They have their 4 month visit with the doctor on July 16th so we will find out how much they have grown in the last 2 months.

I can't believe the changes since we first brought them home. Do you recognize these guys?

Now look at them - they are starting to tower over the bear instead of the other way around. Not to mention those adorable smiles they're sharing!

So far we have definite smiling and cooing and Wyatt has even giggled at us on a few occasions. Avery has now rolled over once! They are both sleeping until between 4-6 am which is a huge change from every 3 hours. Can you believe that Morgan and I were each waking up every 3 hours to feed these guys - okay, so I guess you can tell by looking at the little chubsters:) It is so nice to get a good block of sleep in now!

As for Morgan and I....we have since sold our house and found a new house, which we will be moving into on July 24th. The big day is only weeks away and we couldn't be more excited. Here is a shot of the front of our new house!

Until next time!
