Speaking of mess, moving is quite a mess...and so much work! Remind me to never move again. Or a least not when I'm pregnant. I don't think I've ever been so tired on moving day...and the days after for that matter. Levi worked so hard for 2 weeks to get the house move-in ready and he still has an endless list of projects :). B is getting used to the new house and I think she likes it. I have had some amazing friends who have saved me by coming to help me clean, organize, unpack and even do laundry. If your mom isn't here, that's a 2nd best! I don't know what I would do if I moved somewhere we didn't know anyone. Die I think, ha.
Seems like there is always something that is unplanned. Like how we had to buy a new a/c unit 4 days after we closed (there went my new leather couches!) or b almost flooded the house the day after closing when she plugged the master tub and left the water running. Oops. Or when levi had to paint the ceiling 4 times in the kitchen/ living room and was so frustrated or when 5 people tried to look at our fridge to lower it so it would fit under our cabinet. And levi spent 30 minutes at midnight the day we moved in trying to break the wheels and finally seeing where the bolt was to do it properly. Finding out we have/had mice at some point in the basement. Still not sure what the case is. And the worst, missing our niece's baptism because u-haul didn't care to share we could have kept the truck for 24 hours when we were killing ourselves to get it back by the 6pm deadline. Awesome. And me misplacing my wedding ring like 3 times...just to name a few. Oh and pretty sure levi hates me for buying 3 pieces of furniture at ikea that come in 4 million pieces that he has to put together :). How much is assembly service!? Might be worth my marriage :). Jk. Sort of. Did I mention I made him paint stripes on one of my master walls? Yeah, he loved me for that too. Pictures of the new place to come soon, we love it. Was worth the 6 month wait!

oh you poor thing! that does sound terrible but I can't wait to see it! i am sure it looks great!
Levi has my sympathies on the IKEA furniture...I'm not a fan...especially if you have to return anything. Congrats on the new place, can't wait for the pictures!
I have thought about you moving and being pregnant! Just point and direct that is always best! :-)
Oh no, sounds like a nightmare. So sorry you had to go throught that. Hopefully you are getting settled though. I would offer to help but I am pretty sure bringing 3 extra kids with me would not be a help:) Se you tomorrow:)
I didn't know you were pregnant! YEA!!! Congrats. I know moving+pregnant=bad. I moved during 2 of my pregnancies.
Sounds like a lot of chaos. Hopefully this week was better. We're so excited to have you guys in the neighborhood. Let me know what I can do to help! Maybe Brecken can come play this week?
