It's not like me to miss so many weeks, but it has been a very busy move. We left for Texas on July 18th after my friend's sealing. (Congratulations Ashlee!)
We made it to Texas on July 19th. It was a very quick drive, quick meaning 19 hours, but it went by really fast. We left at 4 pm on Saturday and arrived in Texas at 12 pm Sunday. Taelee did really well on the drive. She only slept about 3 hours, but we only had one major meltdown!
We stopped by our new house once we got to Texas. Taelee loved it the minute she walked in the door. She ran around opening all the cupboards and rolling on the carpet.
We didn't close on our house until July 30th so we were homeless for a little over a week. It worked out really well though because Steve's sister was out of town so we were able to stay at her house while we waited. It was really nice having Stephen home for a week before he started all of his meetings.
We went swimming a couple times with Taelee's cousins, she is becoming quite the water girl.
Taelee had her first hair cut. She did really well, she just sat there. It wasn't a major cut, but her bangs were fixed.
We closed on our house July 30th. It went extremely well, and took a lot less time than I thought. I feel so blessed to have this home; I am so thankful for everyone that has helped us get here! We couldn't have done any of this without help!
My parents arrived with the truck late on the 31st , which gave us time to paint our bedroom and bathroom and Taelee's bedroom and bathroom. Hats come off to my Dad for packing the truck, there wasn't an ounce of unused space.
Taelee loved "driving" the truck!
We had a lot of help getting the truck unloaded, which was a good thing because we had a nice Texas rain while we were unloading. Nothing like the smell of wet boxes in your new house! All in all the move went great! We have unloaded most of our boxes, but have a little more to go. Pictures will come soon!
We had a few projects, but we didn't have to do a lot since it was a new construction. We put hardware on our cabinets, and we put in a garage door opener.
Taelee was quite the little helper. If only we could all work like this!
Taelee has been having lots of fun in her new house. She has been a little more grumpy, but hopefully that will pass once we have settled a little more! She has really enjoyed seeing her toys again, but I think she is having the best time with all the space to run.
She is very into head stands and has almost mastered the somersault.
This is where she leans, quite the pose!
She has also been having a lot of fun coloring, and she is getting very good!
We love our house and hope to have many visitors! Thanks again to eveyone who helped!
