Last Night in Condo

 

I am taking a break right now from packing. The moveres arrive tomorrow at 8:00 am to move us to our temporary house for the next five weeks. We are excited, but also sad. This was the first home that we brought our children to, the last home we lived in when both of our fathers were still alive...it was just a really wonderful home and we are sad to say goodbye. If only it had two more extra rooms, a basement and a backyard.

 

The kids have been fabulous during the packing. Kerala has been very into helping us pack and attempting to climb on all of the packed boxes. Kerala did say that she was sad to be moving, but hopefully it will be short lived and she will transition smoothly into her new home and surroundings. Kian should be pretty pscyhed about his new house - he will have his own room which is at least 3x the size of his current room (aka as my closet).


 

As far as development goes, Kian continues to walk more and more every day. At times he will take up to 5 steps, however, he still prefers crawling. His language development is still amazing - today, he kpet saying "OK Sam" when we were making fun of Troy acting like his father. Kerala and Kian also have been getting along fantastically. Their favorite actiivty is to wrestle, which can get pretty intense. Kerala is doing great - I don't think I have posted that she is officially potty trained. We only do diapers at night (we tried one night without and that was a disaster). The only problem with being potty trained is that we had to unbabyproof her door at night so she could use the potty. The problem is that occassionally Troy and I will get a visit from her around 4:00am or so. The other morning she came to our room at 4:30 to tell me that I didn't tickle her before she went to bed and that she needed me to tickle her. This morning she came up to let me know that her nightlight was out of batteries.

We should be able to post from our temporary housing, but in case we can't - we'll write with pictures shortly after we get into our new home.
