01-16-09

well i'm bored in the hotel room so i'll post some pics. the past 3 days we have looked at 20+ houses and definitely seen more no's than maybe's. it has been nuts, but lane has been so great. the hardest thing about looking at houses for lane is that we won't let him crawl on all the gross carpets. hotel living has been interesting. we find ourselves going on walks in the hallways and have given up on being so germophobic with lane rolling about on the floor. (ew.) i have probably taken advantage of the hotel's complimentary coffee but it's nice not to make it or buy it. we have a little microwave and stove but it's kind of a downer to eat in a hotel room so we have gotten fast food for dinner every night this week. (another ew.) tonight we have decided to splurge and go to a sit down dinner...we can't wait! ok, enough for now...i'm sure they'll be more pics coming soon.

*lane's eye is so much better! thank you for your prayers. within 24 hours of posting that, the skin around it was almost all healed up. (so happy!) it's still gooey but that is normal for him. :)

hanging out in the crib that he has yet to sleep in.

driving, so much driving. seeing lots of houses that we don't want to buy!

yep, he's in four wheel drive. climbing and crawling on everything!


riding on our shoulders is lane's new favorite thing. he gets so excited, he instantly starts bouncing and smiling the second he is taller than us. we barely have to hold on to him because he holds on pretty dang tight to our hair. ouch!

nap time.

hotel.

well we are living at a hotel until we find a place to call home here. this is what we do for fun...


if you have second or two while reading this. say a prayer for little lane's eye. he has had a blocked tear ducted in his left eye since he was born but he is battling a pretty bad cold and his eye is 10x worse. the skin around it is raw, he can't open it, and when i try to clean it he cries. with the cold, his right eye is all goobery too. as a mom i feel like i should be able to fix it, make him feel better and i can't...its so hard.

in other news...lane is now an all-terrian baby. he get pull himself up and climb anywhere with ease. it is cracking us up to watch him be so mobile.
