Counting Down

The time has come for me to start (trying) to tie up loose ends.  Cancel appointments, delete accounts, say good-byes.  We close on the new house this Thursday, and I am making my final trip from Colorado to Kansas in 12 more days, a week before Jason drives the moving truck out.

Jenni came this weekend to bid us farewell.  Of course we went to the park to play since it was sort of nice.  We hope she can make it to Kansas often to see us (and all her other family)!  

So here's my hippie child, who: has been absolutely ravenous lately, is definitely growing and finally fitting into 3T, still wants to go to school badly, and has been wearing her big girl underwear a lot during the day (only to ask for a diaper when she needs to potty, but it's progress).  She's also been showing her freedom by leaving her room after she gets up in the morning and sneaking downstairs to go help herself to whatever she wants in the kitchen (like pancake mix). 

Yep, she is definitely growing.


And here is my non free-spirited, high-strung child who has been waking up several times a night for no apparent reason, other than to hear herself cry or demand Mommy! (said in your meanest voice).  She will be separated from Lainey once we get the new house and aren't crammed in like sardines (as Jason likes to put it), so that I have at least one kid that gets a good nights' rest.

This too shall pass... I hope.
