I officially hate New Years

It's official, I now hate New Years. Last year on New Years Eve Malea stopped sucking on her fingers, due to a finger injury. She screamed and cried when she was trying to fall asleep because she had no way of comforting herself. It was a week of hell but eventually it resolved itself and she started to be comforted by her Teddy and Bee (her blanket). This New Years Malea is sick and she is miserable and impossible. It's 9:20pm and we "put her to bed" 2 hours ago. She has screamed and cried off and on for two hours. This is enough to make me want to run away and never come home. I'm seriously at my wits end and I don't know what to do. We have given her milk, we have rocked her, we have prayed again and again, we have tried everything to no avail.

So it's official, I hate New Years because both New Years, since we've had Malea have started off really crappy. I actually said to Matt today, "I'm ready to take a nap and wake up in 2012." Sad, I'm already ready for next year and this year hasn't even started yet.

Pray for Pip

On Saturday Pip made it clear that he was not feeling very well. He pooped on the carpet about 5 times (YUCK!!!) and thew up about 5 or 6 times. We put him in the bathroom over night to make sure he had gotten it all out of his system and by Sunday morning he seemed to be doing better. However this afternoon he threw up 3 more times and pooped on the carpet again! What's going on? I called the vet and I'm going to take him in on Thursday but until then I have to force feed him water through a syringe. Please pray that he's okay.

Buyers

We had 2 sets of buyers come look at our house yesterday. They both really like the house and 1 of them came and spent another 30 minutes looking at it again today. We are biting our nails waiting to hear from our agent! I'll let you know what happens but please keep praying for us. Thanks!!!

Exciting news!

Matt and I found out yesterday that DR Horton is going to start construction on our new house! Originally they were going to wait until we got our house in escrow but I guess they changed their minds! We are super excited but it just means that now we have to pray even harder for a buyer for our house! Matt and I both really appreciate your prayers so far and we are always encouraged when someone comes up to us and tells us that they have been praying for a buyer. Keep it up, we know the right person is out there!!! :)

I will get some pictures up once construction gets to a place where it's actually something cool to look at, not just some dirt that's been moved around. :)

Please Please PRAY!!!

This slowing real estate market has taken a HUGE toll on a lot of my family members. I am begging you to pray for my family because if God doesn't do a miracle 2 families (on my side) could be out of their homes. I would like to add that this is not because of irresponsibility and late payments, there are a lot of details and it's pretty complicated. I am totally in shock and I am struggling with anger and hurt that this could happen to my family. Luckily Matt is super smart and has been working hard today to help the situation but we need your prayers, please pray!
