Oceanside, Cal-i-forn-ya

Oh my, where to begin...well we made it to California....The past week or so has been slow and busy, if that makes sense? Patrick drove from Texas alone and then Lillie and I flew a few days later. we spent the week in an extended hotel until we closed and then could move in. We are now in! I really like our house, the one Patrick bought without me seeing it first!! That is trust right? We have met quite a few neighbors and they are terrific! very kid friendly area and the weather, well its awesome. Our house doesnt have an A/C!! Its very common here. I know, but its been fine, at night we are freezing. We keep most of the windows open all day. Apparently there are only 2 months when you may get warm during the day, but we will see how bad they are before we get an A/C to use for just 2 months out of the year!
Lillie really likes her house and her yard. She just runs in and out all day and the weather is beautiful. It can be confusing though because in the mornings we all throw on sweatshirts to play outside, but come afternoon the sun can get pretty intense, but still cool in the shade! weird....

Anyways, I am now 34 weeks pregnant and doing fine. Lillie keeps me busy, no time to rest! We picked a name after being set on a few and then changing it...Hallie Reed. pronounced Howl- lee, not Holly or Haley....I liked that name when we were expecting Lillie and it turns out that Hallie means, thinking of the sea, which I thought was appropriate since we moved to the Beach!
Lillie is getting big and is so wonderful. She loves to sing and get dirty:) She is also into babies which is perfect..phew!

34 weeks, due date is July 25th

redid Lillie's room hoping that she would be excited and not scared of a new place...

Tons of houses in Denver didn't have AC either...weird when you come from TX! You look adorable; glad y'all made it and are getting settled!

Hi! It's been forever since I've been on here. I'm so glad to hear that y'all are all doing well. I LOVE the name Hallie Reed. Beautiful! I miss you and I hope your last trimester has been treating you well. I can't believe Hallie is almost here, it was like yesterday you said you were pregnant!

Xo,
