Exciting news!!! We sold our house! Yay!!! Also, our offer was accepted on the house we want to buy, so it's happening! We have already had both home inspections done and we're looking at closing on both at the end of May or first of June. It will be so nice to have some room to breathe! Our 1084 square feet has been good for us, but the 3020 square feet will be so nice...especially the playroom!!! It's officially my favorite room in the new house.
On 4/30 (Thursday) Austin was VICTORIOUS!!!...well, almost. It was his first ever Cub Scout Pinewood Derby. He has a "hot wheels" car that he wanted his to look like, so we ended up with a Dodge Challenger. It turned out looking great! Austin was 1st in ALL of his heats, even beating Jonathan's car 3 times...but alas, it was not meant to be, for in the final race to determine 1st & 2nd place, Austin & Jonathan's cars were neck and neck until the very end when Jonathan's car won by a nose. Austin was awarded a very special trophy made by Brother Christensen, who had helped the boys cut & shape their cars. Austin thinks his yellow Corvette trophy is pretty cool! In other news...Austin took the Math TAKS test last week & thinks he did pretty good. Also, he'll be starting swim team again in a couple of weeks. Fun!
Logan finally got his missing vaccinations and is ready to be a Kindergartener. He is especially excited to ride the bus with Austin. We just found out that when we move they will ride the same bus as their friends Aimee & Alex. I'm excited that the bus stop is practically in front of our new house. Here it is at the end of the street.
Carson is definitely in the "Terrible Two's". Lately I have found muddy footprints through most of the house, Vaseline smeared in too many places to count (including himself), the vacuum cord ripped out of the machine, toothbrushes used to clean the bathroom floor, juice box/candy & popsicle wrappers strewn about, Cricut keypad overlay cut with scissors (and it wasn't even mine!). This is just to name a few of his recent doings. He definitely keeps me on my toes...he's just too cute for his own good.
Jackson at 4 months now is growing up so fast! He smiles & laughs all the time now and is attempting to roll over. He is the best baby ever and I just can't get enough of him. He'll definitely have lots of friends as there have been 5 babies born since him in our ward.
We look forward to having the Zimmerman Family Reunion in Texas this year. Fun times ahead!
That's all for now. We hope y'all have a great month...we'll be busy packing!
Love - Rhett, Maren, Austin, Logan, Carson & Jackson
