We are 95% sure that William is teething. One part of his gum has started to bulge and he's been fussing, drooling like crazy, and chewing on his hands all day. It's no fun for any of us. Today he screamed and got so mad every time I tried to get him ready for a nap. But he did take a long afternoon nap today, which was good. And he went down for the night without a problem.
On Monday we went out to Laveen and my cousin Stacy's husband Andrew Hoyt showed us some homes around there. They're way cheaper for big houses than in or around Mesa. I'd love to stay in Mesa, but we'll see. The houses were beautiful. The first one we went to was so nice! I wanted to just buy it and move in right away haha. I can't wait to finally have a house someday. We hope to have one within the year. We'll see. Austin has decided to start the business he's been working on. Once he starts it, we'll look more seriously into buying a house since Austin should have a salary. Hopefully all goes well with the business idea!
I've been going running 2-3 times a week with Cymany Skouson. She's in our ward and goes running every morning in the neighborhood behind our apartment. Her husband is in the stake presidency. She's super nice and her running pace is consistent and perfect! It's been a lot of fun to get to know her better and have someone to go running with!
I can't believe my baby is almost 6 months old! He's growing up SO fast! He's growing and learning more and more every day. He's so good at sitting up now! He can go so long with playing with his toys sitting up all by himself before he gets tired and falls over to play. He is so adorable and so fun! He's a lot of work, especially since he's teething right now. He demands a lot of attention and doesn't like it when he's left alone without us paying attention to him.
My parents submitted their mission papers! They should be getting their call very soon! They want to go serve in Chile and help open the Concepcion temple (where my dad served his mission). The temple opens in September or October I believe and they hope to leave in October. They want to go for a full two years. Brenda is going to buy their house. My parents are going to build a guest house on the side of the house where my dad used to keep his work trucks and wood. They'll move into that house and share the backyard with Brenda. It'll be interesting to have Brenda live in that house and to have my parents gone for two years. It'll be so weird but exciting for them! They've been talking about serving a mission for years! And it's finally becoming a reality! My dad is so giddy and excited about it!
The Mesa temple is closing on Saturday for two years for renovations. My mom has been a temple coordinator for the past two years on Thursdays and Fridays. Tomorrow is her last day! She's so excited to be done because it's been exhausting for her. And now they can go on their mission!
