I know it's been quite a long time since I've created an entry, but that's because we've had so much going on (and I'm a little unmotivated, I'll admit it!).
For those of you who don't know, in August Travis and I sold our home in Fishers and moved into an apartment in Noblesville because we are preparing to build a BIGGER and BETTER house in Pendleton! It's been an interesting transition to say the least! Going from your own home to a small apartment (with a 2 year old) has definitely been trying at times, but we continue to remind each other that this is a temporary home and all that matters is that we're together!
Pressley is changing and growing so fast! We celebrated her 2nd birthday at the end of October and also transitioned her into an actual pre-school/daycare. She loves it! Within only two months Travis and I have noticed a positive change in her behavior and learning skills. She is counting wonderfully and loves to sing all of the songs she learns at school, however, right now her favorite song to sing is "Happy Birthday" and I have no idea why. People continue to ask us when we're going to have another baby. We will definitely be having more, but not for at least four more years! We want Pressley to be in kindergarten before we add another babe to the Carter clan:)And we also want to get this whole building-of-the-house thing out of the way before adding more to our plate! We have so much going on right now!
We had a great Christmas! We were able to spend time with all of our family this year! It is sometimes difficult to see everyone since Travis' family lives so far north. We opened gifts on Christmas day at home and then traveled to Hartford City to eat Christmas dinner with my mom and my sister and her family and then opened more gifts! After that, we traveled to Elkhart to spend some time with Travis' side of the family! We had a busy few days and now we are exhausted:)
In other news, Travis' company was sold this fall and will be moving their operations down to Canton, Georgia within the next year. He has a job if he wants it, however, we've decided that a move to Georgia isn't what we want to do. He has started looking for a new job and will hopefully find something new soon! Keep your fingers crossed!
Enjoy the pictures from the past six months of our busy lives!
Wishing you all lots of love and a wonderful 2010!
XOXO,
I surprised Travis with tickets to a Buckeye game for his birthday! This was my very first OSU game and it was fun but COLD! GO BUCKS!
We took Pressley downtown to see the lighting of the tree on the circle! Again, very COLD!
Travis' Grandma Beryl came all the way from Florida to visit!
Santa brought the only thing she asked for, for Christmas: a super cute baby doll stroller! Thanks you Santa!
