Posting hasn't been a priority for me lately...lots of boxes and a busy schedule with the boys has gotten in the way. Some days go as smooth as silk and other days, well...not so much. I have my fair share of days that I just want to crawl into bed and start fresh again the next day. I have made a lot of progress in the house, still have boxes in the garage, but I think most of them have stuff that go in Jared's office, so they really don't count. This house is bigger then any other house we have lived in, and for the most part we fill it up. There are a few things I would like to track down, like a sofa table, maybe a hutch of some sort, and possibly a new washer...I know... one of the first posts ever on here was about how awesome the my new washer is, well was. Unfortunately, it now leaks. Go figure it only has been moved 3 times in 5 years not counting the trip home from the store and it was the floor model. It doesn't leak a ton, but enough for a puddle that could ruin base boards. Grrr. Such is life I guess. I also broke our stroller somehow, luckily I went on craigs list and was able to upgrade to a better brand in a used version, hopefully this one will keep its wheels on.
The boys are thrilled in their new house. M has his own room. J and N are sharing this time around and so far so good. N has learned how to climb out of the pack and play (I have not yet located the bolts to put all the beds together yet), so I think we will be making the crib into a toddler bed. I think N has gotten so much bigger over this "trip" J has been gone for, he has picked up a ton of new words and we are sitting him on the potty at night to start a routine...nothing yet, but he thinks it is fun to sit. J had pink eye this week, so he got to stay home for a couple of days, he is a great helper with N and I was able to concentrate on getting more things done. This week we also got our TV and Internet hooked up again and the boys were thrilled to be watching some "real" tv again. I hope that having the tv again doesn't get in my way of getting the last boxes that matter opened and gone through.
I'll try to get some real pics up soon, I don't have rooms completed, they are all about 80%, so I have been holding off taking any pictures. Moving is so much easier with J around...too many decisions to make by myself.

KEYS!!
In 2 hrs and 15 minutes I will be signing the lease to the house and they will be turning over keys....my van is packed for the first load and boxes for the 2nd load are filled...it will be a lot of work, but once again we will be settled! The boys can't wait to have a sleep over in the new house tonight! Now it is 2 hrs and 13 minutes :)

Soccer
The boys enjoyed another fun filled Saturday out on the soccer field. They also had pictures this morning, so maybe I should reword it to an early morning of fun filled soccer...I love that the boys are enjoying themselves and that they are participating in team sports, but the headache of getting them on that field! Hopefully when daddy is back I can sleep in and just sit back and enjoy watching them....who am I kidding ;) So the pic is M @ practice, being goalie, he enjoys playing the position, but is a much needed forward on his team. He has really grown in playing the game and learning some of the strategy that goes with it, and was even seen doing some successful headers out there today. I really do look forward to watching him develop on the field. I haven't mentioned much about J and his soccer skills....we are just trying to keep him standing up on the field, knowing where the ball is and keeping the way to big shorts up ;)
