My last blog post was in APRIL, oh my goodness, APRIL. My excuses, pregnancy, 2 year old, and enjoying every single second of family time that God gave back to us 7 months ago. Wow, 7 months. It is crazy to me to think that it has been 7 months since Jordan got off that plane from Iraq. He is now healed from surgery, back to work, and getting ready to start school full-time. Our life is about to get even crazier, if that is even possible. As I look at my toy COVERED floor just now, I am reminded about how blessed I am to have an amazing husband, healthy family, and every so trusting Lord. God is Good. I constantly remind myself that they toys, dishes, laundry can wait... this little 2 year old is getting older by the second. THAT is hard to take in somedays.
We have been so busy the past few months, doing everything as a family. Grocery trips, garage sales, laundry, cooking... we are always together. I don't know why we didn't always do things together like this. We built a desk out of a door, we've painted the entire apartment, put together Hudson's bed, *decided on Hudson's name*, got all new living room furniture, made many trips to the Indianapolis Zoo and the Children's Museum, tried new recipes in my birthday girl (Rachael Ray cookware), went on walks, spent many days in the pool, and just enjoyed being a FAMILY.
I've recently gotten pretty big into DIY projects. Perhaps redecorating our house and the cost that came with it lit that fire under me, or maybe just a creative instinct. Making something versus purchasing it pre-made just "feels" more like "ours". Our favorite project so far, our desk...
Yes, our wall is "pink", coral to be exact. My husband loves me A LOT! ;)
With our home coming together, baby Hudson growing like a weed, and Layne learning more and more everyday, life is beautiful for the Bull family. We are beyond blessed!
