Well, the Saldanas have made it to Texas. We arrived last Wednesday and it's been an interesting week and a half so far. Gilbert started work on Monday and that was interesting in and of itself. He says he's bored most of the day and there was a bit of miscommunication regarding his position. We also have not yet moved into our house and we're having all kinds of problems with that. We're hoping to be in our home sometime before next weekend, whether it's the one we've been trying to purchase or it's a lease.
We had been staying with some friends who have three kids of their own and it was complete chaos. We were initially supposed to stay with them one night but seeing as our housing situation wasn't completely figured out it turned into a week and a half. We decided that we needed to give them their home back so we left there yesterday. Lucky for us, another couple in the church is in Australia for a month visiting family and they offered up their place for us to stay in during the transition. We decided to take them up on it and while Matthew still didn't sleep through the night last night, it was the best sleep I've had in a week and a half.
Speaking of Matthew, he is huge. He probably weighs almost 18lbs now. When we packed up all of our belongings his jumperoo was on the first setting and his feet couldn't reach the ground. The family whose home we're staying in has a little boy a couple of months older than Matthew and he has the same jumperoo on the same setting. When we put Matthew in it today his feet touched the ground. He's getting big =). He is also cutting some teeth. I can see 3 teeth just under his gums and I can actually feel one poking through. Hopefully they'll come in soon so my little guy won't be in anymore pain.
Well, that's all for now. Hopefully next time I update we'll be in our home (wherever that is) and I'll be able to upload some new pictures!
