All in a Day's Work

Just to summarize the last few days:

• We are set to close on May 21st! :) Now comes the fun part (not!) -- getting all the utilities switched over, address changed, etc. We are so thankful for a good realtor -- she's been very helpful through the whole process and we feel that she's gone above and beyond her duty!
  

• We are done w/another semester! Yes! We are done w/finals!!! (can you tell any excitement there?!) Still waiting on grades to be posted. No more school until August!!!

• We have started packing up the apartment -- (and yes, it looks like a tornado has come through -- I have pictures to prove it...if I'm brave enough, I'll post them later) -- this morning and got quite a bit done. T was called into work at noon, so that slowed me down on the packing. However, we will appreciate the overtime hours on the next paycheck. :)

• We bought a refrig & mattress for our new home (our apartment now is furnished) -- next up, is a washer & dryer. Then living room furniture...and all the fun decorating stuff. :) Mom has already measured windows to make window treatments (I know some of you can picture this -- we are having the inspection done and at the same time, Mom's in there with a measuring tape getting measurements for the windows!) -- so that is also on our list.

• We've also had baby showers and baby news in the last few days. Let me clarify that it's not OUR baby news, but we are going to have a baby girl in our meeting later this fall. We are all very excited! Our boys out number our girls right now (hehe). Mom & I also went to Heidi's baby shower...it's was a perfect day for a day at the park, eating cake, and munching on fruits & veggies (of course!). I don't know how the momma-to-be felt by the end of the day (probably exhausted!), but it was fun nonetheless!

Well, I better get back to packing and cleaning up this place before the hubby gets home and can't open the front door b/c of boxes in the way (hehe).

More later!
