Packing and Planning

The weeks are flying by and we are staying very busy with house stuff!

We are slowly but surely packing up our current house. Everything is off the walls, there are boxes everywhere, and the kids are having fun playing with bubble wrap and attempting to unpack all the items we gather up. It is sad to see the house so bare. I am also sad that we only have a few weeks left to spend time with our friends here. Of course we can see them once we move since we won't be too far away, but I know it won't be nearly as often.

We are also spending a lot of time making remodeling decisions for the new house. We have been looking at carpet, paint colors, lights, cabinet hardware, and many more items. The project scope has increased quite a bit from when we first started but I am really excited to see how it turns out. Currently our kitchen still looks like this.

Fireplaces are coming along.

And we have a new closet!

Other than house stuff we have still been doing our usually weekly things - swim lessons, therapy, indoor playgrounds, play dates, and a couple of WOW Wednesday's at a nearby church. We have also had birthday parties most weekends for the past month and a half it seems so that has been fun for the kids.

The other week Cambry went to drama bible camp. I was a little nervous she wouldn't like it because she didn't know anyone there. The first day she was hesitant to go but every day after that she really looked forward to it and had so much fun. They were supposed to do a performance that Sunday but unfortunately she had to miss it because she got sick.

Colton is now officially crawling and pulling up on everything. He is busy busy and so much fun. I love this age! He has been really liking baby food lately too and even eating a couple Cheerios, though he does gag easily.

I mean, just look at him. I couldn't love him more. And his hair. I love how it is so long and full and shaggy. He gets comments about it all the time.

Lainey is saying more and more words and it is so exciting. Most would be hard for a non-family member to understand but she is trying very hard. My favorite is when she says princess. We have plenty of those around our house so she definitely knows what that is!

She also loves to take selfies. She likes it when I turn my phone camera around so she can see herself and say cheese and I take a bunch of pictures of her. I love all her faces.

We have also enjoyed many nights watching the Olympics with the kids in the evenings.

That's what we have been up to lately. I know the next few weeks will fly by and soon Cambry will be starting preschool again and we will be in a new house in a new town trying to figure everything out. New adventures to come!
