We had a very eventful weekend! We went on a long and cold journey to Minnesota (mostly cold because Eric was blasting the A/C to keep himself awake while driving). After a few hours of sleep we woke up and bought a house in one day. We looked at about a dozen houses, chose our top three over lunch, took a second look, argued and debated, put in an offer, signed some papers and closed the deal...all in about 11 hrs. It was great. W won't close until we move in June, but we are hopeful that everything will be fine, (since we already signed our life away) and we are already chosing out paint colors. Yeah! We are finally grown ups!
Also, on Monday, we had an ultrasound and we found out we are having a BOY! That's right, Cannon #4!
Other "lately" events:
Sterling turned 5...holy smokes batman!
We also had a great visit from Kent and Laurie. We had great fun while they were here including an action packed day in Chicago; this is Kerrie and Whitney in the amazing Shedd Aquarium.
peace out.

Yay! Life sounds pretty exciting! Congrats on #4 and buying a house!
Congrats and congrats, both wonderful news! Hope you are feeling well. Way to make an even number of boys and girls. That's cool.
Lots of good news here! Congrats on buying a real home! So happy for you guys to have a place that's all yours. And extra super news about a new brother for the super cute Cannon kids. How exciting your life is now! Match Day is tomorrow, and our first baby is due two weeks from today! We are feeling pretty grown-up ourselves these days. Miss you!
Awesome! Man that is crazy buying a house in 11 hours! You guys don't mess around. And YAYA for another adorable boy! I miss you like crazy.
Umm...wow! That is quite a post my dear! Two bits of really FABULOUS news! Congrats on the house...and a HUGE congrats on the baby news! That is wonderful!
A boy! Fabulous! A house too--awesome! I'd love to hear all about it!
whoa, that's intense! a house and a baby... I will never catch up with our friends and their babies....I just got started to late to have 4 :)
Wahoo! We're so excited for your crazy kids! A house will be great. My brother Michael and his wife Sarah are in Rochester, so I'll have to have them look you up once you're there. I don't know how you do it with all these kids. Good thing Sterling is going to be all grown up and going to kindergarten next year. You're a better woman than me!
YAY!! A baby AND a house??? Congratulations!! I can't believe you could decide on a house that fast! Post some pictures!!
Ah, what a great post from the great Andrea. The only thing that could be greater is if we could be neighbors and hang around while our husbands are on call and our kids are running wild! Good luck with the newest little one! Boy! Cute! And good luck with the move. I hope you get to know some of our buds in Rochester. We just got news of some other friends moving there (the guy just finished his PhD and decided to go to med school--he's at Mayo) anyway, stay strong sister. This intern year is almost DONE!
