A lot has changed the past few months. First off, Wade got a new job. Actually he got it in March, so it isn't really new anymore. He seems to be enjoying it, but he doesn't really like the commute. Neither do me and the girls. We figured that we would move closer, but we didn't want to make any moves until after the baby was born. We spent a few months working like crazy getting our house ready to sell. We got lots of help from my parents (I can't thank them enough). The entire upstairs has been repainted, deep cleaned, dejunked, etc. Lindsay and Kaylee now share a bedroom, it works for now. Another year or two and Lindsay isn't going to like the idea of sharing a room with her little sister. It is hard for them at times because of the 4 1/2 year age difference. It isn't the same as it was when I shared a room with my two sisters. We were a lot closer in age.
Because of the new job, our house is for sale. That in itself brings lots of emotions. We don't want to move, but we want to be closer to Wade's work. We are basically putting it in the Lord's hands. We have done what we feel like is the right thing, and will just wait to see what is in store for us. If it sells great, if not we will be commuting. At least Wade is in a carpool now, that really helps with gas. We love our neighborhood, city, ward, everything. The girls have opportunities here they won't likely have other places. But then again there would be different opportunities for them if we were to move.
Our most exciting change is that we now have three little girls. It still seems so unreal. Ashlie is such a good baby. She is now two months old. She was 23" long and 11lb 5 oz at her 2 month checkup. Growing really fast, too fast, just like her sisters. I still look at her and think, wow, I was pregnant. I keep thinking that I should know information about her birthmother. Now granted I do know everything about her. It seems like it was so long ago, and that she has been part of our family forever. Definately a different feeling than with Lindsay and Kaylee. They both came to us so quickly, one day they weren't there, the next they were. Each one of my girls are miracles to us. They were suppose to come to our family, when and how they did. There is no doubt in my mind about that one. Heavenly Father was looking our for us the entire time. 
Are there any more in our future? I hope so, but only time will tell. I think there are times that Wade needs a break from all the girls and their emotions (yes even little girls are emotional and they can change just like that.) He loves his little girls, and they all have him wrapped around their little fingers. He is such a great daddy, I couldn't have asked for a better husband and father.
