The house has been closed upon, the movers arrive the 8th with the storage stuff, the kids and I are going over with a vacuum Thursday to get ready, the Marmoleum has been chosen, the countertop guy has been out to give us a quote, and we are off on the latest homeowning adventure!
We had a great time in Arizona for the holiday- it was wonderful to see the fam and friends, really great to spend some time with Brendan (always helpful to me in the perspective department) and a surprise visit with Kath and the extra surprise that she is coming out to do our paint/wallpaper removal. WAHOO!!!
Will keep y'all updated.
The kids are awesome. James woke up inconsolable last night. I wasn't sure if it was teeth or night terrors but from Googling I think it was the terrors. Teeth shouldn't wake you up screaming bloody murder (seriously like he was trying to pass a cruise missle or something) so hopefully it won't happen tonight. The info I have is that it is not uncommon to have the terrors during a major developmental phase (almost crawling, anyone?) and at least I know he is not dying as he was trying to propel himself out of the bouncy tonight during Ava's and my dinner. That boy has the most beautiful happy face and we are so grateful he wears it for us often. It's extra disheartening for that reason tho that the unhappy face and voice (extremely unhappy at times) has been making extra appearances lately due to the teeth that have yet to arrive. Poor boy. Ava has the most beautiful face and sweetest voice and if hers was the only one I heard for the rest of my life that would be okay. She is still adjusting to the baby and not being the center of the universe but the adjustment has been getting better by the day. She is truly and angel (with a little devil mixed in for good measure just like her Dad? or Mom? Both :-)?).
No more rambling. I am thinking of doing a blog for my rambling and keeping this one short and sweet with pics of bebes. With 2 kids? Who has the time?
Love to all
