It took us 2 days but we made it!  It was a rough trip with a bunch of, uhmmmm, chaos, but we are here!  We close first thing this morning and move into the new house this afternoon.  So excited.  And ready.  Poor Taryn is soooo confused, she just keeps crying and saying she wants to go "home".  We try and explain it to her but I just don’t think she gets it yet.  🙁  Hopefully the new house and no more hotel living will help her to adjust.  Ty is just wired, excited and everywhere!  And traveling with a black lab mix, is totally like traveling with another child, after 2 days with Kylie in the front seat of […]

Thank you so much for all the well wishes.  Sale went perfectly yesterday.  So relieved. Austin bound, first thing this morning!

Well, a quick update this morning as I log in from our hotel.  After a long couple of days, we’re all moved out of the house and the sale occurs this morning.  Part of me is sad, it’s our house, our home.  Jason lived there when we got engaged, it’s where we returned after getting married in Hawai’i, we found out we were having Taryn in that house, and it’s where we brought her home from the hospital.  Tons of memories, birthday, Christmas’s, doing homework at the kitchen table, fixing dinner.  We became a family, we grew, we changed and we loved, all in that house. And then there is this little voice in the back of my head that […]

The Gee came to my rescue today.  She showed up with a smile and worked her tail off, packed the kitchen, entertained Taryn, changed diapers, picked up Ty from school and even took out the trash.  I don’t know what I would have done without her today, I’ve been awake since 3:30 am and feeling pretty bad all day.  Very sore and crampy from over doing it while packing yesterday.  Thanks Mom, you rock.  Moving truck arrives first thing in the morning.  We’re exhausted, and not quite ready.  Our last night in the house….is, yup, you guessed it, total chaos. 

Things are looking up on the home front.  We are hopeful that everything will work out with both the house and Jason’s job situation, just in the nick of time.  We should know more today actually.  With any luck at all we’ll be packing up the house like crazy people through the weekend!  We’re not good at the ole hurry up and wait routine.  It’s stressful.  T’s getting a little bored with it herself…. Actually, she was waiting on me to finish snapping so she could go watch Little Einsteins 😉  Ahh, the life of a 2 year old.  She’s been into so much lately and says the funniest things.  I need to gather them all together in my mind […]

My mom threw us a going away party this weekend, it was so great to just relax with family and friends and visit.  A little sad, but fun and we had some great food!  I took a few shots, not many, but I think this one is my favorite…Little T hanging out with my mom.  I love to see how happy they are when they are together… Thank you Mom, we love you!!
