How many times have Brad and I moved? 8! Yes, that's correct. 8 times. 1 time for every year we've been married. Since we're coming up on 9 years in June, it would only be right for us to be getting the 'itch to move' again soon right? We wouldn't want to wreck a tradition!
We were so thrilled to get into our new house in April of 2006 and absolutely love the house.......unfortunately we hate the lot. With the kids getting bigger (and having more of them) it would be really great to have a 'normal' sized lot to play in. So, we've been watching the market and seeing the value of our house rise constantly and get somewhat excited about selling and getting into something else. This is what we do. We buy, sell, buy sell to get more equity into each home. It has worked so far as long as we don't get too greedy with what we want in each house and go over our budget.
We showed our house to some people from work last week on a 'whim' and they seemed to like it. Yet, I find myself saying 'um, we're having a baby in less than a month!!!' What are we thinking? Selling a house with a brand new baby? Crazy, I tell ya. However, I find myself dreaming about a different house with a nice big yard that the kids can play in. When is it enough? When can we just be satisfied with what we've been given already? God has blessed us so, so much and I never want to take those blessings for granted.........something to continue to pray about I suppose. God is good and He will show us where he wants us to be and when: all in His perfect timing.
I'll let you know what He tells us........soon I hope:)

Okay that is crazy but what an adventure you, Brad and the boys have been on. What a way to bring into this world a new baby!! Only the Freisens could be this crazy and handle it so well with joy, love and understanding. Bless you in whatever decision you make.
