We are moved and mostly unpacked. I was amazed at the amount of people we had here to help us move. On Friday we had 9 people and on Sunday about 15 I think. Basically the guys moved the boxes and the women helped unpack them. We were able to get the kitchen all done and then they helped me clean the old apartment.
We are settling into our new life. I have the baby most of the time and that is fine with me but the time will come when I will need to start looking for a job. I am seriously hoping it will be after the holidays because I am so enjoying being home with Lanie.
The other day I was listening to Bo Matthews on the radio and he asked if any had become what they dreamed of as a child. I thought about what I wanted to be as a child and it was always "a mom". Well it took me until I was 51 years old but I finally made it!
Lanie is growing and changing every day. She learns a little bit more daily and tries a few more things. She totally amazes me. She stood up in her crib the other day! She had woken from her nap and there were some pictures that I wanted to put up in her room so I left her in her crib while I was doing it and she was just talking and babbling like babies do and then all the sudden she just pulled herself up and stood there holding onto the side of her crib...and me without the camera! I called Nonnie and John so that they could see. Lanie is so close to crawling-I think she will be crawling by Halloween. Speaking of Halloween, we took Lanie and Hannah to get their pictures taken the other day in their Hallween costumes and in regular clothes. They turned out very nice. Hannah would not let us take any of her alone but we got some very cute ones of the two of them together. The price was outrageous though-$170! I wanted to get the CD and that is what cost so much. I don't think I will be doing that one again. The prints should be ready next Monday to pick up though. I am excited about that.
Ok, I think I am ready to go back to bed and I am hoping that Thomas has stopped snoring. I will type later about plans for the wedding.
