The Strasser's

why does it seem so exciting in some form to be moving, but sad because we will not know anyone and have no family close? I have been feeling excited about the new chapter that we are beginning, but I am not excited because I have to get out of my comfort zone of meeting new people. That's a hard thing for me to do it took me a long time to make some friends. And I even by best friends that are living in utah. One of the other things that I have been thinking about is all the stuff that i have gotten rid. Stuff just accumulates. I am excited for a bigger bedroom and our own bathroom. We are only going to be in the area for another 3 weeks. And I have lots to do still.

Well we finally went down to Brookings and we did find a place to live. It's a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath condo, con it doesn't have a yard. But it is cheap enough that we could save some money that way. It is 1700 sq ft. But it will be nicer to have more than one bathroom, but more to clean.  We will be moving at the beginning of July. We are excited but we are nervous. It is a pretty place. While we were down there we got to see Cory's classroom. He said I could help him get stuff for his bullentin board, which is something I like to do. So maybe during some of the time while he is getting ready in August for school we will go in and help. And he did get his materials for his class. So you might not get much blogging from me for a little while. I have other things that I really should be doing but I wanted to let everyone know what is going on right now with us.

Well since Evan's birthday was on a week day we celebrated this little guys birthday today, Among making sure the house was straightned. Here are lots of pictures. Here is the birthday boy having some pizza for lunch. Not a very good picture, But here are the elmo cupcakes I made for Evan's birthday. Trying to get into his present. David and Kimber got him a bag of animal crackers, he was very content once we opened the bag. He knew there was something good in there.  Since everyone has been gone after the party, he has been having some animal crackers. I love this picture. Thanks for the presents and everyone that came.

Happy Birthday to our little Evan. I can't believe he is 2 now. He sure has been through a lot. He is our little angel, and a very loveable little guy.  Here is some pictures that I thought I would share of our little evan.

So when we had the 20 week appointment our baby girl was able to let a us see that she is a girl, but wasn't very cooperative enough to let the ultrasound tech get all the measurement's we needed. But we did find out her thigh bones are on the shorter side and the doctor was concerned last time when he found out about this but when he came in had Cory and I stand up to look at our body types. When the doctor saw that Cory has a longer torso and shorter legs he wasn't to concerned. So basically she will have the same body type as her daddy. But I have to go back in for another ultrasound in July for measurement's. And he said possibly that by that time I could be considered not a high risk pregnancy than. Alyssa is already wanting to name her Lily. And this morning I was told by Owen, "Mom you have a big belly", I told that's because there is a baby in there. So he now is telling everyone there is a baby girl in mom. Our baby girl was str...
