. . . for Lauren and Lauren: We're moving!!

We're moving!!

Image Map

We've been kind of in limbo waiting to see if we could find renters, so that we could buy a house and we found renters last week!  Our contract was under contingency that we find renters, so everything is in place now that we have a signed lease.  Our closing date is August 31, but thankfully we have a few weeks after to move before we need to be out of our house.  

I packed one box yesterday in a half hour.  One.  Addi kept climbing in and out of the box and I had to hold Isaac because he was fussy.  So clearly, moving is going to be a breeze.  

But I know it will all be worth it!  This picture is on the front porch and I can not even wait.  There's a long driveway, two acres of land, a front porch and this beautiful big living room with a fireplace. And there are chickens!  Which we will be doing everything we can to keep alive.  

I'm working hard to not feel and act like a crazy, stressed, over tired mom and wife, but I've already failed a million times.  It's been 8 years since we moved and it was just Chris and I and we didn't have enough things to fill a 750 square foot place, so this will be a little different.  But I can't wait to be in there and am excited!  New house here we come!

Hooray!! My best moving with kid advice is... ask for help, send the kids to hang out with family and pack like crazy, pack at night, label your boxes really well, pack the toys last, set up their play room first and try to pack a little every day from now until you move. You can do it!! :)

That's so exciting! We close on our first house on August 31! We definitely won't have 2 acres (sadly.), but we are super excited about the neighborhood we'll be in! Good luck packing. I've been dreading it, and we don't even have children...
