We played in the pool at Dustin's parents house, stealing the last rays of the hot summer sun....
(hoping to God above it cools down sooner than later....) Summer is almost over.
I'm not sad at all to kiss it goodbye, although I have to admit,
the hot Vegas heat does feel good on my shoulders.
I will miss the 100 degree late night runs... NOT! Ha! Vegas summers blow.
Labor day was fun. He ate lots of pop sickles to sooth his teething aches and pains
at this particular Labor Day BBQ. No veggies, or BBQ chicken, nothing of
nutritional substance, Just sugary pop sickles. And I'm OK with that.
He did pass out a few kisses, and the ones he didn't give out for free, I stole...
I've got to my kisses in before he gets all growns up and pushes me away.
And I blew that fat little baby belly and munched it a bit!
We both have been feeling the weight of the decisions coming that we have to make.
I don't want to leave family and friends. It makes me sad. So that's hard. But we're excited to see what the Lord is going to do in our lives and we're pressing into Him. Last night Dustin retreated to his "man cave" (our guest bath tub...) (Do OTHER husbands take daily baths, or is it just mine? This is normal right?! I mean, he doesn't soak in bath crystals and pour oil all over himself or anything crazy, but the man loves him a daily bath....I think it's weird. That's just me. 6'5 with your legs folded up in a bath? Who does that. It doesn't even sound relaxing at all....Maybe we'll find a place with a garden tub in Texas where he can extend his legs a smidgen!) I'm getting off topic now. Ahem, where was I, Oh, yeah, he read all of 1st and 2nd Corinthians, all of Ecclesiastes & the whole book of Colossians. I call this "binge" reading. He came out of the "man cave" looking like a dear in head lights with his eyes bulging out of his head. The pressure is on. I think we're both feeling desperate to hear from God. I feel so prayed out about this topic. Give me a nudging, or a sign! Drop something from the sky! Something! We just want to go where the Lord wants us to go, and to not be afraid of the un-known. This is tough.
We're both a little on edge with it all.
It's like my heart is being pulled in two opposite directions. This would be SO much easier if Vegas was a complete shit-hole. But my friends are here (two of which are about to pop out babies soon, and I want to be here to kiss those babies!! And what about Avery?! Conrad's going to be so heartbroken over the loss of his first true love....) And I'll miss my brother and family. So sad! But it's also very exciting to go on a new adventure with Dustin. I feel like, everything will be fine because we're doing this together.
I'll keep you posted on everything.
