All moved out

I'm sitting next to a window listening to the quiet tapping of the rain. Across from me is my son who desperately needs a nap but thinks that naps are over rated and is pretending his Jacobs ladder (current favorite toy) is a whistle.  The thunder is rolling in a very relaxed way. It's so soothing. Exactly the kind of weather for blogging or taking a nap

As of last night we are officially, completely, moved out of the last home of our own in the united states. Right now we are staying with some wonderful friends that (mostly) don't mind when my kids run around like wild Indians or try to play with their baby like she is a doll.

I still have a pile of stuff in their garage to sort through and stacks of things in our room to take care of but we are out of the house and I have 5 weeks to figure out where all the stuff should go.

Honestly the hardest thing for me to get rid of is clothing. I'm trying to be brutal but when it comes to things like the worlds softest jeans that fit perfect when you first put them on but by the end of the day the only thing keeping them up is my constant tugging its hard. I guess I should act like it's a friend that's moving. I'm great at being logical when it comes to friends clothes.

I am really thankful for all the amazing friends we have. Abby, Six, Cisco, and Melissa all came over with no advance notice to help us clean, pack and throw stuff away. Then my sister came yesterday all pregnant and everything to help me wrap it up. I know we would not have been able to do it without the help of all these awesome people. So thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

It's kind of surreal. We are really leaving. I mean like really, REALLY leaving. The next 5 weeks in Houston will be spent tying up loose ends and hopefully spending time with people.

Then the part I am really excited about. :) visiting friends and family I haven't seen in years! I'm so excited. I feel like a little girl.
