Movin' On Up

Ok, so I don't have a ton of house pictures. I should've taken some with the house empty, but now it is strewn with boxes. I'll post some pics when things are closer to how I want them. Everything went really well with closing and the move. BIG THANKS goes out to my parents for coming in from Michigan to help paint and watch Maizie, to Jason's sister, husband and 5 kids for signing up for a weekend of manual labor, and to our Young Marrieds friends for making move day happen so quickly and painlessly. We could not have done it without all the help!

Here we are getting our keys and trying to look ceremonious about it.

Jason painted ceilings for 2 days straight. So now I can think of him whenever I look up.

Maizie in front of "Maizie's house." She's done really well adjusting to the new place. She loves going up and down the stairs to put her babies to bed and then to go wake them up. All that work has worn her out and makes for great nap times and bed times! She's really been a trooper through all of the change. Hopefully little brother's arrival is just as smooth.

A new addition to the family. We finally gave Maizie her birthday present from us last night. It was hiding in a box, so it missed her actual day. "Kitty" quickly joined the ranks of Maizie's other babies and has already gone for a ride in the baby stroller and on the baby swing. Kitty purrs and meows and came with a bottle that Maizie likes to gnaw on.
