Horrible, Terrible, no good very bad day!

...And when I say day I mean month. June 2012 will go down for us in infamy.  We are soooo glad it's over. Well our drama is not over- but the intial "hit" is over. Every week and sometimes day brought a new challenge.  The month began with Ben breaking his leg and two days later Will found out that he did not pass the boards-- a test he studied 8-10 hours a day for six months. It was pretty much one of our last ditch efforts to get Will back to becoming a practicing doctor. Moving on-- our home is admist a short sale and two weeks before we were supposed to move we are having to redo all of the paperwork and get new approvals--- additional time and paperwork problems sometimes scare away the buyer--- we are hoping this does not become the case. O and did I tell you we are frantically searching for jobs in our house. Will and I have had some glitches come up with his benefit and we are living off our little savings right now-- Yikes! I am looking for work I can do from home and Will is looking for work he can do in the medical arena so we can jumpstart him into a different career. O well, with all this going on- I won't mention the part about the actual place we are going to live when we do move out (hopefully in the next couple weeks) is still undetermined. We've got some hang up going on associated with our living situations as we have them planned so may move up to my parents or I actually thought I saw a cute little spot down by the river that might be nice for some temporary refuge.  I hope this post is not too much of a downer--- we already spent last month being sad about it so we are looking forward to a brighter future this month ;)  In the meantime we aren't moving to Austrailia cause I hear they have bad days there too....

As for our little munchins--- Ben is speaking more in sentences, and trying harder to communicate ideas with us-- which is really stink'n cute. He wobbles around on his cast like it is nobody elses business. The cast comes off in a week and a half and I can't wait!  Even though I don't think his injury has scarred him for life- I think it has scarred me for life ;)  As for Little James.... He is two and a half months from his estimated time of arrival and wiggling and jiggling like it is nobody's business. I have gained 17 pounds so far and am starting to experince more back aches. My heartburn is still pretty consistent but does not wake me up in the middle of the night as often.  We are prepping for the arrival of James this month by trying to wean Ben off the binki and settle him in a toddler bed.... Wish us luck!  We'll I'm signing off. I hope some of you are still out there cause we are still here :)

p.s. Don't worry admist our sorrows we did find a way to leave our home in the month of June... below are pics of us at the Hill Air force Museum, the chalk art festival, a lunch at Subway after going to the Treehouse Museum and at a time share in Eden. If you notice I am not in any pictures... that was in fact by design-- My sister cut my hair and understood me wrong when I told her how short to cut it... basically by the end of the day I looked like a cross between a cockatoo and a boy.
