Well, my milk is drying up. I'm only getting about 4-5 ounces a day, so Abigail is eating mostly formula at this point. But its ok. I know it's ok. She's healthy and strong, and she's gotten two months worth of breast milk. Its better than nothing, and it still made a difference.
On a happier note, we're finally moving! Out of this house, that is. We'll still be here in South Dakota... We've been keeping our eyes open for a rental house that will allow us to keep our dogs. After months and months of looking and being discouraged, a good friend found an apartment for themselves. They insisted we go look at them, even though they don't allow large dogs. So we did. And we fell in love. Or at least, I did. They're just perfect for us! Right in our price range, close to Matthew's work, the right size, a safe area, and very well maintained. They're pretty much brand new-and... oh gosh, I could just go on and on about how great this place is for us. So we talked it over for a few days, and went in this evening to put down a deposit.
Not only is this the perfect apartment complex for us, but we got the building we wanted, an apartment on the first floor (like we wanted) and the layout we wanted. Everything just fell together perfectly. Now we're just trying to find a home for Jafar (someone is already lined up to take our pit bull, Hades). For once though, I'm not worried about it. God has planned everything out at this point, so I know He'll take us the rest of the way through.
Our move in date is January 6. Perfect. I would love to be in there before Christmas, but I know we couldn't be packed at moved out by then. There's just no way. So I'll learn some patience, and pack and clean and sort when I can. We can do this. Moving is hard work though! Especially with a newborn! Whew. Its ok though, we'll make it through. God will make sure of it, and we'll just rely on him.
Alright, I'm off to work on a Christmas gift! I'll post again later, maybe. :)
