This last weekend was our moving weekend. We moved to the house we bought here in town. It takes a lot of work to get everything packed, cleaned, moved, unpacked, and cleaned. We had a lot of help with D's parents coming early so I could get most of the packing and all of the cleaning at the new house done (it was filthy). People from church and bible study came Friday morning and we moved everything from the house and from our storage to the new house. With all the help we had it took less than 3 hours. Praise the Lord. In moving things from storage, however, we discovered that some of the furniture was covered in mold. There were items we had planned to get rid of anyway, and this just forced us to. I was worried about all of the things in the boxes being moldy as well. That meant that the rest of Friday and all day Saturday were spent unloading boxes then washing dishes laundry, furniture, books, and anything else we felt was still in good condition. Overall, there were only a few things that didn't make it, and none of it was hard for us to part with. We've had a lot of late nights.
At our new house the girls have been sharing room. So far they seem to really love it. Every night they "talk" and laugh for at least an hour after we put them to bed. The first couple of nights they woke each other up through the night, but that seems to be getting better. Now if one wakes up, the other has been sleeping through it. The morning is a different story. One seems to wake the other up at about 6:45 am every day. I don't know which one actually wakes up first. I'm hoping that soon they will be adjusted and sleep just a little bit later. One bonus to them waking up so early and keeping each other up at night, is that they both take good naps during the day. That is not normal for Bria, but her nap time is in the basement where it is cool and dark.
I wasn't very good about taking pictures during the moving process. Here are a couple that I did get.
Bentley snuggling with Grandpa when Grandma and I got back from cleaning the other house.
After a long day of unpacking, Bentley snuggled with Grandpa before bed time.
In looking back, I wish I had taken more pictures of all the boxes, but I guess I will just have to try and put it memory.
