Hey Guys!!!!

 So I slacked in getting a post up last month! My apologies:) Anyways, here is what has been happening with the Colburns for the past couple of months......

So Dave sold cars all summer and it actually wasn't too bad. We had initially thought that if it went well that it would be his full time job instead of teaching. He started out with Kelly Volkswagen in Danvers which didn't start off so well because of the management. Dave has a friend who lives in Foxboro Who sells for Nissan in East Providence RI. and they were really desperate for salesmen so Dave decided to work for him for the rest of the summer instead of at Kelly's. He did really well here and sold a lot of cars for the short time that he was there, however, because it was such a long drive it wasn't something that he could do in the long run. All this being said, Dave decided to go back to teaching this year and he will be getting a second job cause we all know teachers don't get paid a whole lot:( Hopefully he doesn't wear himself out!

                                            This is Josh (Dave's friend that he sold cars for)

 We got a visit from a friend of mine that lives in Colorado a week ago. Her name is Liz and I have known her since my senior year in high school. We had a really good time showing her around Boston and taking her to the beach and Jacqueline absolutely loved the company!!!

I am officially 35 weeks!!!!!! I cannot believe how fast time seems to be going! I can't believe we will be having another baby in 5 short weeks. However, my family isn't really known to hold babies in past the 38th week  so it could be 3 weeks out! CRAZY! Anyways, I have been feeling pretty good as far as the pregnancy goes. I am a bit on the tired end these days trying to prepare for baby #2 while taking care of the high energy baby#1 :) I also find that I am stressing more then I probably should about the delivery since I am going for a VBAC instead of a repeat c-section. But I have an amazing doctor who does a great job of easing my fears in this area!

My very small belly:) 32 weeks

My mother will be coming down when I am 38 weeks to help us get ready for the baby and to help take care of Jacqueline in the last few weeks when I won't be totally up for wrestling my crazy 2yr old:) I am really excited to see her but hope that I don't have this kid before she can make it down here! She flies in September 10th!!!!

Dave has started the pastor track at 7 Mile Road and he is really excited to get this thing started and for the future Wakefield plant!!!!!

Lastly, we are thinking about moving out of our apartment when our lease is up at the end of October, however, I'm not really finding any good apartments in Wakefield as of late. I'm also a bit nervous about moving with a one month old. We could really use prayer that we find something and that the move will be a smooth transition for us all!

PHEW!!!!! That was a lot of stuff to go over and I promise not to skip next month:) Hopefully next time I will be posting about the arrival of our new baby girl! Until then.......
