Phase One Complete

So, we are out of our house.  I think we worked so hard, all day, to get everything done that I never had the chance to really take in the emptiness of our home.  Which is probably good.  I probably would've cried.  We hand over the keys tomorrow, and we are done.  We were only there two years, but it felt like we'd lived there forever, and it was hard to leave.

We are now hanging out in Greg's parents' basement for the next four weeks, then we move into our new place the weekend before Christmas.  It's weird living out of boxes, and not knowing where stuff is, and thinking, "Crap, I really wish I'd grabbed my breast pump before it got packed away in the storage pod."  But in a month or so, everything will have settled and we'll be in our new home.

Greg's parents have a room with a twin size bed for Annie.  This is Annie's first time sleeping outside of a crib, and the freedom and mobility was a little too apparent when she came into our room and bed several times last night.  "I didn't sleep very well," she told my Mom today, "so I went in with Mommy lots."  Ellie was in the bed quite a few times too, being sick and fussy and all.  Worst was when it overlapped and there were two kiddos in bed with us.  For the first time in my life I'm thinking, "Why don't we have a king sized bed!?"
