2 days and counting...WDSM here we come!

Moving is in full force now……up until the weekend of the June 6th we were slowly packing and cleaning out stuff for the move. But then I got in a panic and freaked out on Skinny… thinking we wouldn’t get everything done in time for the movers on the 20th. So on Saturday and Sunday we spent the day packing and organizing our wedding gifts and the 2nd bedroom…along with starting to pack our master bedroom. Which made me feel a little better…
Like I said in my last post we were able to get into our new place on the 11th. So that night we had a walk thru and got the keys….then Skinny and I started to figure out where we wanted everything to go. But I again started to worry and became a packing fool….I spent all day Saturday and Sunday packing plus cleaning out stuff. The end result was 14 bags of clothes and shoes went to Goodwill, not to mention 10 bags of trash and 2 bags of shred. That was just for my walk in closet and bathroom. Skinny and his buddy then moved all the small boxes to the house and got all the bags were they needed to go. Now the last 2 nights I have been packing everything I can…. I have completely finished the master bedroom/ closet…did most of the bathroom and some of the kitchen. I will need to finish the bathroom linen closet and the rest of the kitchen….but Skinny says he will help. Which I’m waiting to see since he has been telling me for 2 weeks now that he will get his bedroom ( the guestroom) done….and it still really hasn’t be touched, I have a feeling I will be packing till midnight or beyond of Friday….to get ready for the movers the next morning. I guess we will see.
On a different topic…Izzie is doing well at the parentals… I’m sure they are tired every night from following her around. Someone once told me that is why young people have children…because they can run after them better. I think they are all counting down the days till Rands and The Beau get back from overseas….it is only 4 more days.
Butchie and CJ are doing good… they are both settling into their new routines…. I’m sure A.B. and Big L are seeing just what it is like to have 2 little ones….I can only imagine how it is working for them. But I have confidence they will be just fine.
So I guess that is it for now. Hopefully in my next post I will be TOTALLY moved into our new place!!!

Butchie...is HERE!!!

Butchie….HAS ARRIVED!!! Yes my Brother’s 2nd son was born on 06/09/09. I can’t believe he is here already…it seems like yesterday A.B. was telling me CJ was going to be a big brother. He looks just like my brother did when he was born…. A full head of dark hair…and a little furry. Granted A.B has about the some amount of hair on his head now as he did then…so they can relate. I can’t wait to see how CJ will react when he figures out that Butchie will be living with him FOREVER…or at least the next 18 years. Unlike their dog….they can’t give Butchie away to a neighbor…when CJ gets sick of him. Speaking of the boys, last weekend we got their room already for them to share. It was a “Sister’s makeover”….. we made Big L leave and we cleaned, sorted and decorated the boys’ room. Big L sent us all a thank you note…so I’m sure she was happy with it.
On a different topic…. The final count down to the move…we got a call today and will be able to get into the house a whole 4 days earlier…. Which gives us even more time to get stuff moved and out of the apartment. Skinny and I can’t wait to have the moving done…. not to mention having our own house. Once we are in and settled….then I can start looking to redecorate the place.
