Mess

Ok, as happy as I am about our upcoming move...I have to say that I do NOT enjoy the moving process. Ug.

Our house is a mess and it's driving me nuts! It's getting better day by day as we keep packing stuff up. I'm not a huge neat freak by any means, but I typically try to at least organize our mess. Not really able to do that with a move. And since I'm home all day every day, I try to just put my back to it all and pretend it isn't there. :P

To add a few more challenges into the mix, our landlords have to show the place tomorrow afternoon to a potential renter. They know we're about to move and that the place is pretty nuts with boxes everywhere but it's still stressful to try to tidy stuff up a tiny bit. Then, today Michael got a fever. It got up to 101 and then we were able to dig some tylenol out of a box in the garage. I'm hoping it doesn't turn into something worse because him being sick is definitely not part of the plan days before we move. ;)

Joseph is doing great as usual and is so precious and sweet! He was in such a happy mood today and just smiled constantly. He has really become a daddy's boy lately. I'll give him my best jokes and silly faces and he'll give me some smiles. But Michael comes home and just looks at him or says "hi" and Joseph almost starts laughing. :) It's really sweet to see their connection and the way they love each other.

Joseph seems to be changing like crazy lately. He is starting to make some new sounds and his neck gets stronger by the day. Today I tried him in the exercauser just to see how he would do. I propped him up in the back with a beach towel and he really did so great! He just loves standing up now that his neck is stronger. He gets this cute look on his face that just shows how amazed he is at everything he can see how from this new perspective! :)



So many new things to chew on!

Precious, precious boy! Such a big boy in the exersaucer! I know it's so hard living amongst all the boxes, but it will be over soon! Wahoo!
