April 2015

It has been pointed out that I didn't do a March 2015 post. Oops. Here's a photo from March. We dropped off J at a friend's 6th birthday party. They went to the theater and saw "Cinderella." This was a photo the birthday-girl's mom took; she said the whole day was pretty much this silly.

April brought a green yard, which we took full advantage of. Even Wilbur enjoyed it.

We caught a swarm of bees, so we now have 3 beehives. J helped take photos of me catching the swarm on a plum tree.

We had to assemble and paint new hives. J was happy to help.

We haven't gardened as much this year, but we did get 30-35 tomato plants into the ground.

We also had a friend come by and take some really great maternity shots. I will post more of those later once she is done getting her website up.

We also had some really interesting developments as far as the house goes. In February, we got a really good offer on the house that seemed to make sense for us. We entered into a purchase contract with a developer and started looking for a new place. We put a few offers out, but none of them were accepted (even though we offered more than asking). As we got closer to new baby time, we started to realize that buying was going to be disproportionately more difficult than selling.

At some point we noted that the developer was late on an extension check, so we decided to notify them that we were canceling the contract for late payment. They were not happy about that (to the point of becoming physically threatening), and are not in agreement that we can cancel. There will probably be litigation involved. We're willing to fight it, though, as we feel that a late extension payment is a material breach of contract. Nothing is black and white in legal matters, so who knows what will happen. We're really hoping (and praying) the developers drop it.

Adult decisions are hard. Pray for us, if you think about it. It's a minor thing in the scheme of things (we're thankful for our health and well-being) but still stressful.
