Just wanted to update you all about our crazy life. Last week Mike was offered a job in Bismarck as the Assistant Attorney General. After a week, we decided that was the best option for our family at that time. On Monday, he accepted the postition, and Mikayla went to the first day of school, and Mandy started packing. Mike is still working 30 hours a week at his old job. Mandy has been packing from about 8am to 5pm with occassional breaks for visiting teaching, eating, changing diapers, doctors appointments, looking online for a new place to live, etc. Today, Thursday, we will go pick up Mike at work, at 5pm, and drive to Bismarck, 3 1/2 hours West of here. We have a few appointments to look at homes and duplexes to rent. We will come back on Saturday night, go to church on Sunday and hope to pack up the truck on Tuesday and drive out to Bismarck that day. On Saturday we have to be in Cardston, Alberta, Canada, a 12 hour drive from Bismarck, for Mike's youngest brothers' wedding. Mike will then start working on the following Wednesday, the 12.
In the meantime, we have to pack up the whole house, cancel all the utilities, take Mikayla out of school, clean and check out of our old place, etc. etc. etc....
Did I mention that I am 8 1/2 months pregnant???? Even writing it down is exhausting! Just wanted to share some of the craziness. We will let you know when we are settled and how it all went.

Congratulations Mike! Mandy, I am sorry you have to deal with all that though. It is both exciting and frustrating--new home, new job, lots of packing, being pregnant, etc. I was about seven months pregnant with Isaac when we moved and it was a pain (maybe that's why he came early). I feel for you.
Yeah! Hopefully this will help new baby Pitcher come earlier!! Good luck with everything. We are keeping you all in our prayers.
