Hi,
I thought I would try to have one more post prior to the end of 2008!
Hope this finds everyone doing well. We had a great Christmas but very Hectic!! I will post pictures soon. Dad (Grandpa) and Kelly came into town and Kyle also came in from PIT.
I am leaving today with Beckham to fly to PIT to visit daddy for New Years. This will be our first new years eve together in a long time (since Kyle will not be working late a the liquor store).
December was really crazy and went by really fast (here are a few tid bits)
Beckham got sick and we started breathing treatments :(
I continued to work and be a single mom!
Kyle came home almost every weekend...
Todd Made another *(^%&^* offer on the house... and we rejected again
I tried to do Christmas shopping and decorated the house some...
Family, Family and More Family during Christmas week
Madison is doing well but always itching
I continue to try to keep the house clean for house showings (which we have had several lately!)
Anyway... I am glad 2008 is almost over and can't wait until 2009 it will bring lots of new changes to come!
Happy New Year!
Love
Katy

Contract...No contract!
Hi,
On Monday we got a contract on the house on Wed we told the potential buyer "Todd" thank you but no thank you! He offered us 50g's less than what we put it on the market for and then we countered and then he still was about 40g's less than what we put it on the market for plus he wanted a lot of picky things so we said no (hope this doesn't come back to bite us in the butt) The house has only been on the market for one month and Kyle still has at least 5 more months of temporary housing and I don't have a job in PA so we will just keep on... I know things will be slow for the next few months but that is fine with me because I don't exactly love keeping the house spotless for showings :)
Anyway that is really all exciting with us.

Oh yea, we went Monday to get Beckham's hear murmur checked out and our pediatrician, Kip, thinks everything is OK!

Busy Busy Busy!!
Wow, where did November go? If anyone knows please tell me!
Last week we had Beckham's surgery for new ear tubes and his adenoids removed. He was a pretty sad little guy on Wed, better Thursday with Naina, and Friday gave his daddy a run for his money!!
He is doing well now, except they brought up to me that he has a heart murmur so now we have to go back to the doctor to get that checked out :(
Kyle is doing well. He came in to help me this weekend which was nice because Beckham was a little fussy and we had another open house. Not much action at the open house so we will see. Supposedly there are still several people really interested (I will believe it when I see it!!)
Kyle is enjoying his job much better. He loves going to the well sites but is not too much of a fan of the "office life". It did snow when we went to visit him last weekend but it melted very fast (very pretty snow)! It is now snowing and cold up there.
Anyway, not sure where the time goes (work has been really busy too)... this week we get to cram 5 days of appointments in 3 :)
Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!
Love Katy

Obama Wins and not sure about PA?
Well,
Kyle called last night not to excited about the decision to move to PA... sounds as if the job is not quite what he expected. I told him to hang in there I think he is just home sick! But Beckham and I will be up there soon enough for a visit. As far as the house goes... we are still having lookers but no contract yet... one guy is still very interested but he is checking numbers to see if it is in his budget and another family are deciding on our house and one other (I'm sure they will pick the other house). But in the mean time we are still planning another open house for this weekend. I waxed the floors the other night and they look great so maybe that will help the house sell... that is if Kyle still wants to stay in PA!! Anyway going to watch the office. Good night. Love K

Election day 2008!
It's a big day her in the USA... McCain vs. Obama. We will find out tonight who will be our next Pres. I still have not voted but the plan is to do that sometime today!
So, it has been a long week and weekend. It was Kyle's last week in Memphis. He left on Sunday which was sad to see daddy go but exciting for us to find out more of where our adventure will take us!! Even Kyle's dad cried when he dropped him off at the airport so you know it was a sad day. Beckham does not get that daddy has left but every night so far we have called him to say "night night".
Halloween was fun. Kyle and I went to Beckham's school for the "Fall festival" where he played with his friends and was Frankenstein. Then came home and we carved a pumpkin and then went trick or treating down the street in his Dragon costume. He looked so cute toddling down the street in that costume. He started a new classroom on Monday which I think has been harder on me than on him. On Monday morning brought his milk the way I always do and the teacher told me there was no fridge so I started to cry (not sure it was over the fridge or just stress). Anyway all that is worked out now!
The HOUSE... well it seems to be positive then we hear nothing. We have had 3 people come back twice but still nothing. We have another showing at 7 pm on Wed so there is still some hope! Now that everyone knows that this is happening it just makes me want it to happen sooner and go on and start our life up in PA!! Hopefully it will sell soon! I will keep you posted.
I will post some pictures tonight of Halloween. Have a good day!

It's official! The Alexanders are moving to PA!
Hi everyone,
We got the news, Kyle is moving up to PA on November 2nd with a ONE WAY ticket to PIT. It's going to be really COLD. But, I guess that's what clothes are for! I still have not told my work so AMY please don't say anything yet!! Things have been really busy this week trying to figure out all our plans and everything! We put the house on the market on Tuesday and we have our first open house on Sunday! So hopefully it will sell fast! Ha Ha
Beckham is doing well, he hid from me this morning when I wanted to change his poopy diaper. I found him in our bedroom underneath his round saucer toy. It was really funny! He is moving up to the next classroom. I hope he does well with the move because that will be several big changes for him with daddy being gone and a new room at school.
Anyway just wanted to let everyone know the latest! Love K
