.."Boy this Holiday Stuff can be exhausting"..
Steven seems to settle in and make friends - he says he loves the variety on the new schools lunch menu lol….gee good lol… he does not talk much but seems to be ok with the move now and I am sure he will be making new friends very easily. Having to share his room with his little brother is a big change for the two but they will manage for a while until we find a house, not too long I hope. He does complain about having to get up an hour earlier to get on the bus but hey nothing is perfect right, at least now he can ride the buss where at the old school he had to bike or walk.
Samuel is being his energizer bunny self - still the very picky eater he can be and like his sister back and forth fighting the cold season. He is not to keen on the longer bus ride to school but does very well with the change he went thru in school and already knows most of the teachers. He is very excited to be able to spend xmass break at Grandpa's house and was also very excited to be able to go xmass shopping in Green Bay with him and the rest of the family.
Sarah is doing remarkably well at her new daycare, I think the switch was fairly easy for her as the daily routines etc are quite similar to those of what she is used to. She is ok with her new room now.. Hey she has two closets lol…and these days is being just a tad testy about things just to see how far she can get sometimes which to me appears to be a sign that she is quite comfortable with where she is.
Her appetite is starting to slow down and she actually will refuse certain items now so that’s ok. She got her first experience of snow and unfortunately in the middle of the move my camera was nowhere to be found. It was funny to watch her as she really did not know what to do with all that white stuff but she knew she did not want to be let go on her own for a while, she did not like being stuck in 8 inches of snow….
…….. And as we where in Green Bay yesterday we got her ears pierced……lol…… we had them do both at the same time as I knew if they do one there was no way they would get the other one in…… about 5 min and some tears later she was fine and seems to have almost forgotten about them except when one of us would say "Pretty girl" she would tilt her head, pull her hair to the side and show her ears off …. It was so cute.
So that’s it for my update for now, hopefully I can get some time to get pictures of my phone to post as well.
Ciao!!
Ok so we made it to Central WI our new home for our family. Of all the weekends who would have thought that the first snow storm of the season would hit that very same weekend we are suppose to move. Of course we got hit right in the middle of it half our belongings only fit into the Uhaul and instead of leaving town on Saturday it was late Sunday morning by the time we finally go going.
Not having anybody to help pack and move of course did not help, but luckily we had family that helped unload the truck at our destination and that was pretty much all we got done that weekend … yikes and off to the new job on Monday it was quite the weekend.
The kids did really well they are by now in week 3 ok with the new schools have their routines down and are making new friends. We are still trying to get settled in but not too much - a portion of our stuff is still at the old house and we'll be getting that over Martin Luther K. day since we are both off that day. Of course since we are renting right now until we have a jist on what we can expect with our home sale and of course until we actually find a new home I don't want to get to cozy.
I do miss my house, having all my things in order and where I know they are but I am sure once we find a new house and move permanently that will all fall into place again. And oh do I ever miss DSL!!! Who would have thought that renting a nice little country place will put us in a spot to not be able to get DSL soooo the pain of dial up is upon us……….man oh man….
Since we are not spending xmass here I don't even have anything put up - well to be honest its all in the old garage since we did not have room lol.. Kind of strange xmass and no tree. But Grandpa has a 12 foot tree waiting for everyone to enjoy when we get there on Saturday so that will be fun and I can't wait to see how Sarah will take the Holiday buzzle. We will have xmass with my sister on Friday and the to the UP we go.
I hope we did not forget to share our new mailing address and / or contact info with anyone that needs/wants it but if I did sorry our cell phones are still the same number :-) call us.
