Our family has been living under one roof for 1 full week +. It is so nice. We haven't felt too lonely yet because we look forward to seeing Danny everyday now! We haven't met any neighbors yet. The down side of a very private lot like ours (being surrounded by trees) is it isn't that easy to run into the neighbors. We will probably reach out to those closest to us in the coming weeks. The house kiddy corner looks to have a 5ish year old girl and a 3ish year old girl, so that is hopeful. We have done a lot of unpacking over this last week. The basement is still a disaster, but 1st floor and 2nd are in good shape. I can cook meals and kids can play. I am adjusting to having very different grocery stores. I had to request an item at Copps that I just can't find at any store here that my kids can't live without, or me either because of their constant disappointment, and that item is Stonyfield yogurt tubes.
Joy has adjusted very well to the new house and city. Noah, however, has stated a few times, "All done here, I want to go home" or some close variant of that statement. But, thankfully he quickly gets busy and doesn't seem too affect by it. The kids have also slept great from day 1 so that is a blessing we are very grateful for.
This week the kids are looking forward to a visit to Grandma and Grandpa Rainbows. They are very excited. I'm excited too because I'm hoping to get the rest of the unpacking done while they are gone so I can move onto decorating and painting before this baby arrives around August 7.
Here are a few pics from our move. I didn't get any of the truck on this end of the move, but thankfully my mom was on the ball and took a few. :)
And this little man is my newest nephew, Emmitt James Hughes, who was born on April 19.
