Funny Daddy...

It's Fall Y'all!

One of the only things I like about Michigan (other than people), FALL.
Fresh cider and donuts, falling leaves - their beautiful colors, the way they smell, the way they crunch when you step on them, hay rides, Halloween and Thanksgiving...

Colin's first hair cut

I knew this would happen! I KNEW this would be the hair cut that transformed my baby into a little boy. I was right. :(
Thanks to my sister Tammy, he sure looks cute!

Yea! Our computer is fixed! Here are some of the photos you've all been asking for:

More Computer Drama...

So, Matt tried to hook up the computer this morning and even though the hard drive is fixed, the computer is STILL not working.
So, unless someone can lend their IT skills or computer with babysitting there will continue to be no updates. :(
This makes me sad b/c there is so much to share with you!)

Quick update on Colin -
Our guy is now 8.5 months old! He weighs over 20lbs, is in size 3 diapers, sitting on his own and is beginning to reach, rock and pull himself up to his knees. It won't be long before he figures out how to crawl!
He has 4 teeth and is in the process of popping thru more! He says Da Da and plays a wicked game of one handed peek-a-boo! He is still such a happy, funny boy!

I'm not a slacker - I swear!!!!!

I know many of you are checking our blog for pictures and updates, you're wondering how the kids are adjusting and if were all settled in...and with no luck, you're still left waiting. I AM SO SORRY.

We didn't officially move in until the 4th weekend in August, we had to wait 2 weeks for internet service, then shortly after that our computer hard drive crashed! We are working on getting that fixed now, as soon as we do you can expect one very large update with lots of pictures!

Thanks to the very skilled, hard-working guys that remodeled our kitchen & bath and helped to get our home move-in ready, my friend Chris from Stanley Steemer and the wonderful help from our family on moving day - We are pretty much settled in.
The kids transitioned real well (which, once again; is a lot more than I can say for Matt and I). The key for them - keeping busy, friends, family and lots of distractions. My saving grace, our family membership to the YMCA.
Besides being a new employee in an industry he knew little about, Matt is enjoying his new job very much. The travel will take a bit of getting used to for all of us. But, so far - so good!

A special thanks to all for your prayers, support, encouragement, baby sitting, packing, un-packing, loading the Uhaul, moving, driving to Michigan, cleaning, painting, hard work and help. We are so thankful to have such wonderful friends and family.

We love you,
The Pitzer's

P.S - Did I tell you that we ended up renting out our Florida home? Yep. Two days before Matt left to join us in MI. Praise God! Like it says on the blog - "God is never late, but rarely." So true.

That's all for now!

Our life in Florida as we knew it is rapidly coming to an end. As our Michigan adventure begins Thursday ( 2 days)! We are very sad to be leaving our church, family and great friends. But, happy for the possible opportunity to return in a year or two.

And more so, looking forward to spending some much needed time with our MI church, family and friends!

Our new #s: Matt 616.307.7683 Sara 616.307.7681
Our address: 6145 Idaho Ave NE - Belmont, MI - 49306

Please continue to pray for safe travels and a smooth transition period. We also still need someone to rent our FL house. Not too worried about that one though, God always has a way...
