We found out in the middle of Tucker's surgery that Matt had been offered a job at Deaconess Hospital. We took a few days to pray about it, and in the end couldn't turn down 40 hours a week and more money an hour.
So...we put our house on the market, put offers on two houses in OKC before finally finding "the one", and began the process of moving. Matt ended up having to start in OKC two weeks before we could close on a house, so it's been a little crazy.
Being a single mom +being pregnant + packing + missing Matt + keeping our house clean to show + having to throw many of our Christmas traditions aside due to the craziness = NOT FUN!
We close on our house in OKC tomorrow and are going to start staying there so that we can be together with the bare essentials until we have time to have an official moving day.
Since this is the first Christmas that Tucker has officially been old enough to know what is going, on it's been hard to have to push aside lots of our traditions. We have been to see Santa as well as see the lights and inflatables in Muskogee, but I'm really hoping that the lack of furniture, TV, etc. in the new house will provide us lots of free time next week to cram as much Christmas down our throats as I can!
