Where to start??? I'm not exactly sure, but I'll just say that after my hair appointment in the morning, we are going dwelling hunting in the Akron area of OHIO! It was all a pretty big shock when Brian was offered a position in an outside territory. It will be a blessing for Brian to get back to his home state and a wonderful surprise to have some family and friends close by when Connor arrives. The only hiccup in the plan is that since Brian is expected to cover a large territory if needed (similar to what he is doing here in Virginia) we aren't exactly sure where to live and it has not been recommended that we not purchase a house until we have a smaller area to look in. SO, that means TWO moves....one while I'm pregnant and then another one a few months after the baby is born when we will definitely purchase a home.....sheesh. We tried to figure out a way that the double move would not have to happen, but nothing has worked out so far.
If we find something outstanding when we go this weekend to buy, then it is a possibility if the location is right, but otherwise, please hope and pray that we are able to find a nice HOUSE that we can rent with a short-term lease or better yet, month-to-month. We did find what appeared to be a WONDERFUL new home for sale, but it is under contract. We are thinking about possibly building that house, but will find out more this weekend.
Welcome to our craziness! We only THOUGHT we were moving back to America to settle down!!! Believe me, we will settle....just a few more months of chaos first!

Hey Allison,
I've enjoyed hearing all about your pregnancy adventures! And, now you are moving too! You amaze me! Best of luck with everything! Thanks for sharing!
Good lord! We went through something similar when we got married and everyone kept saying when it was all said and done, we would be bored..but you'll have a sweet bundle of joy to play with..yay!! Best of luck on an awesome short-term lease :)
wow allison~ I admire you for doing all this PREGNANT!! God is just preparing you to be a mommy;-)
I am excited you at least know somewhat of the area you will be settling into. That has to be a relief and give you something to look forward to. You forgot to add one little thing to you calendar of events----our lunch date:-)haha.
