Like any adventure being a Mom is chalk full of moments that can take my breath away. Sometimes it's because I'm avoiding the aroma of stinky feet or a dirty diaper, other times it's a slice of amazing only kids can bring that leaves me staring in awe. My rollercoaster life raising 6, soon to be 7 kids can be chaotic at times, but embracing the insanity is half the fun.

Oops! I did it again!

Well the good news is we're all moved over to the new house. It was a looooong day. But we did it.

Getting everything moved over to the new house? A PAIN

The new house? WONDERFUL

Spending the first night at the house? WEIRD

Getting used to the sounds of being in town? ALSO WEIRD< BUT DOABLE

Getting unpacked? NOT FUN BUT WILL BE SOOO WORTH IT WHEN IT's DONE.

Kids sleeping on the floor last night because beds aren't together yet? KINDA FUN ACTUALLY, LIKE A CAMP OUT

The huge yard we have? VERY NICE, KIDS LOVE IT!!

Having internet access only if I'm standing at the top of my deck outside (until tomorrow when they come connect us.) A PAIN IN MY BOOTAY BUT BETTER THAN NOTTA!!!

Momma's energy level after the move?? PRETTY GOOD ACTUALLY, MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE I"M HAPPY TO BE IN A BIGGER PLACE.

Paying the movers after they stalled and took 8 hours? OUCH!!!!

Lots to do today, work on kitchen, Greenlee's room, get the kids set up so they can at least play. Unpack the bathroom. Call and get all the old stuff transferred. Go to post office and get a change of address. get beds put together. Keep kids occuppied. Go and vaccuum old house so that it's clean. Pick up the cat, and find something to do witht he dog and the kitten since we can't keep them :(

Hope everyone has a great day. Mine'll be busy but it's the good kind of busy!!!
