Moving Day!

All week long we slowly moved stuff off the shelves and furniture into the garage. We are getting new carpet. Basically it is like moving out. Little by little we packed and stacked. It is a serious chore. Instead of working out at lunch, I have been packing.

Friday came and my old college roommates came into town.... Richelle, Anne and Kirstie. Richelle and Anne stayed at my house and Kirstie was at a hotel. (She was in town for an alumni mtg so we hooked up later). We were very nostalgic and went to all our old joints like old times. We even closed down the bars like the good old days. 2am didn't seem that late until I heard the pitter patter of Gavin at 5am. Brutal! Steve was the awesome husband and took care of Gavin. We had a great time and it was really fun to get out with the girls and be dorks like we were 20 again. It was like no time had past since we all hung out. Great times.

We made it to breakfast the next day. Steve and Gavin went to a birthday party for Ben from daycare. Since I had my friends in town, I didn't go. Steve was once again a trooper and took Gavin. We didn't do much on Saturday except watch tv. It was really nice actually to relax. When Gavin came home we watched Little Einsteins and the little red door about a million times. That is one of his favorite shows and since we were not in the entertaining mood, we all sat on the sofa and watched. We also managed to get in some Wii time of course. Here is Anne on the Wii

Gavin had fun with the girls this weekend and it was fun to all hang out. Gavin has developed a twitch which we are monitoring. We aren't sure what it is but we took him to the doctors and he wasn't too concerned. He said to just monitor it. On Friday I took him to get his hair cut thinking it might be the hair in his eyes. He continued to twitch. He seems to do it when he is tired. He also does it when he watches tv. Not sure if he needs to get his eyes checked. We are going to take him back to the doctor and have him look at the video.


Sunday we moved, moved, and moved some more. My back hurts. We put everything either outside or in the garage. Gavin loved it since he got to ride his scooter all over the living room which he isn't allowed to do normally. We also tried teaching him the art of holding a full cup of juice and not spilling. Normally he drinks that in the kitchen but Sunday we let him do it on the carpet. He spilled the whole cup. Then like a rain puddle, jumped in it. Total boy. Who cares we are getting new carpet tomorrow! Let's pray it doesn't rain. We can't wait for the new carpet but it is a pain to get in. Massages are in order!

Gavin loves to wake up at 5am and say it's wake up time, it's wake up time. We are teaching him numbers and say, when the clock has a 6 on it, we can get up. It doesn't totally work but at least he lays down for a little longer. Not that I can actually fall back to sleep again but I am not actually up at 5am.
