Crazy times!

Oh man, do you ever feel like one day you have all the blessings in the world and everything is going so great you couldnt be any happier and then the next day it all goes down the toilet and you think man just yesterday it was all fine and today the world is crashing down on me? A total rollercoaster ride. I feel like that about our move. Granted in a few weeks once I am all settled and on the farm I will be like "seriously, someone give me something to do!!" But right now I just feel exhausted and stressed out.

But a good thing I think we will finally be done moving this weekend. We have pretty much everything packed up, all that is really left is to clean. After I get off work on Thursday we will head down again with hopefully the last of it. Its just such a busy week. We have to be out of the house for the renters by the 10th. Well with a highschool reunion this weekend and a rental property to have to clean up and get rented out again and a trip to california this next weekend it just feels overwhelmingly crazy.

Plus poor Chloe, we left all of her toys in Duncan so she is being passed around, sleeping in an empty room in a playpen, and has no toys. I went and bought her a couple but nothing is familiar anymore to her so she is all nutso about the chaos. Wow!! I mean its just crazy, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and we will be done soon.

(Disclaimer: Plus I cant even think straight enough to realize a runon sentance so sorry if it doesnt make for an easy read)

Moving!

For some this may be some sad news and for some may be good news. For who ever reads this we are moving. We are packing everything out this weekend and heading to......DUNCAN..I know what a shocker, or where the heck is that. Well its where Brett grew up, we get to live on the farm for free, the houses are vacant and only really used as a vacation place so we are going. Its a good time in our life to go. Brett had the break in his job that would allow us to do so. We decided hey get to live on the farm and the simple life and save a ton of money. It all came up really fast and our house rented in less than 24 hours. So we have to be out by the 1st. We , well mostly I will still be in the valley working for a few weeks until Brett's job is all set up and then. Well we are outa here. Its crazy I'm the working one and Brett's Mr.Mom, kind of nice before its 100% me and Chloe 100% alone on the farm while Brett is at work. IT will be fun lots of adventure. Ill update and add pictures when I get a chance.

Thanks Covin!

So I was rearranging stuff in our extra bedroom and found a few random toys that my nieces and nephews play with when they are here,and among them was a race car. Well Chloe found it instantly (because she is always underneath me doing whatever I'm doing)and played with it forever. It was the greatest little shiny thing that rolls across the floor. It really doesnt surprise me, since her cousins are mostly boys and all they have to play with is cars. So Chloe thanks cousin Covin for leaving it so she can play with it. She loves it!




My Little Thumbsucker

I had put Chloe down for her afternoon nap and after aboout 20 mins of quiet.I peeked in to check on her and found her just sitting there sucking her thumb and holding her bear/blankie.



















Ok and if any of you happen to notice I also see the 3 no no's in the picture. "No pillows, blankets, or toys should be allowed in a crib. What a terrible mother I am, well I have an excuse. Brett put them there! :), But the funny thing is she HAS to have her bumper pad in, if its off say I'm washing it, she will not go to sleep, or will she sleep if that purple blanket is not in there either. And the toys, well they keep her entertained till we go in there to get her.
