And also thanks to . . .

• Both my sisters for all their help painting our old house and the new one.
• My mom and mil for all the babysitting
• All of Chris' friends that helped move the heavy stuff
• My mil for cleaning the old house
• My mom for cleaning the new house
• Jenny for babysitting while I unpacked

Our house is now somewhat unpacked. There is a small pile of boxes in the living room and the same in the "office nook." I have a few pictures hung and a clock or two. Most of the stuff left to unpack is Chris' or awaiting Chris to do something before I unpack it. I'm hoping to get to paint Ben's room this weekend so that I can get his crib set up in there. It's getting hard for him to take naps in the living room while his brothers run wild around him. I went to Ross and Big Lots the other day and drowled over all the things I'd love to have for the new house. But that will have to come in time. Ca needs a bed and a dresser, but everything else is just things that'd make life easier or look pretty. My next priority is to get a closet system set up in our master bedroom. It's a fairly big closet, but could be set up so much more efficient with some shelves and rods. It'd take me about 1 minute to spend a few thousand on this house if it was available.
