My one weak attempt to preserve memories for my girlies.

Moved

We have finally moved! It was too stressful and exhausting to be sad. A couple times while cleaning up the kids stuff I got teary then I just had to remember that they were just at school and they'd be home in a couple hours. We haven't bought another house yet. We have offers in on three short sales and are just waiting for a bank to respond to one of them. I'd be happy with any of them. Till then we are living in a cond0 (three stories up - uhhh) in PG. It was the only place that would let us do a month to month contract, have four kids and two cats. Seriously who wants that, us? Well I like the kids, and they like the cats. Anyway, it is actually a really nice place brand new. We are completely bare bones, mattresses on the floor, folding table, etc. I had so many neighborhood people just showing up and helping me I was so grateful because even though I thought I had it under control I didn't. Thank you to: Dave for messing up your neck while carrying my king sized pillow top up three flights of stairs! Thank you Kerilynn, Linda, Kaitlyn, Teri, Janelle, Auntie April and Autumn for not taking no for an answer and showing up anyway to help. I seriously could not have don't it without you!

Now starts the shuttling kids back and forth to school and preschool. Thank goodness the baby likes the car and is content to just sit there and suck her thumb. She actually took a few steps on her own yesterday which is some kind of miracle in itself considering most of the last week was spent in a cart, or car seat. The big girls all share a room and are loving it. They call it having a sleep over, I hope it doesn't get old. We haven't had any tears about toys being in storage yet. We have our fingers crossed we won't be here for long, but if we are it will be ok. Sorry no pics, how boring!
