Wow, we're all moved into our new place and trying to sort through and unpack the boxes....which is going rather slow because my little independent one yr old is acting out a bit by going from one room to the next being a whirlwind tornado leaving a disaster in a matter of seconds! Seriously, I now understand why there are "mommy's helpers" for hire!!!
The move went well, we hired movers, but they could only take about 3/4 of our stuff...sigh. We do a better job packing a truck full, but then we're not as careful as they were and pack it pretty tight. So the move ended up dragging from Sunday all through Friday....Friday being the day we did the walk thru and left the keys on the Stove and forgot our expensive milk in the fridge...sigh.
Friday is also the day that while I was sweeping out the garage, Jamie and the kids made a final dump run before loading up the last tiny bit of outdoor things to be moved. While at the dump, Jamie lost his footing and fell out of the back of the truck and landed on his head and right shoulder. He tore a ligament in his shoulder and broke his left thumb! So his right arm is supposed to be in a cast and his left thumb, wrist and forearm are in a cast with pins holding his thumb together...right now he's in tons of pain and is hopped up on Tylenol 3's with caffeine and codeine...oy....and yet extra strength ibuprofen works better for him. Weird...lol
Today is a somewhat "normal" day. We are trying to find a routine even though we are still in unpacking mode. The kids and I need some semblance of normal. A schedule of some sort so we know what is happening with our day, this will eliminate a lot of meltdowns and unmet expectations.
That's the update for today. Check out my other blog for an update on my thoughts about birthdays!
