Tonight is the night!

We will officially be in our house tonight! Byron and Dad had too much going on yesterday so we weren't able to get the beds up to the house. The plan today is that my dad and Byron should be finished with work around Noon today. After that we will get things moved. The house is coming along. Mom watched the kids all day yesterday, so I got all the boxes we had up at the house unpacked. My kitchen is all set up. I have most of our closet set up. We have the living room set up. So we are doing very well. The kids had fun last night hanging out at the house for a while. Jaycee didn't come out of her room for an hour! She discovered that her toy box was there. She had EVERYTHING out of it! It was so cute! She was loving it!

A few stories about the kids! We laugh a lot! They are so funny and their personalities are wonderful. The first story is Jackson being a pest to Jaycee. Mom was in her bathroom getting ready. Jackson was playing in there and Jaycee was in Mom's room watching cartoons. All of sudden, Jackson left the room and then came running to the back wall laughing. Jaycee comes running in there and hits Jackson and goes back to her cartoons. Jackson takes off again. So mom decides to watch this time. Jaycee is in front of the tv and Jackson walks up and hits Jaycee and takes off running. Jaycee turns to come get him and notices that my mom is watching so she turns back around to the tv. So Jackson goes in there again to hit Jaycee since she didn't come after him the last time. Mom said it was so funny.

Then yesterday, not that this is funny but I have to share. Jackson has figured out how to turn mom's faucets on her garden tub. Mom got on to him b/c it was the hot water he kept turning on. So once Jaycee realized that bubby could get hurt, she went into her Mother Hen mode. As Jackson was turning the faucet on, Jaycee was trying to pull him away and Jackson bit Jaycee. Mom said she was in total shock and it happened so fast. Jaycee was heart-broken and has pretty good imprints of bubby's teeth on her arm.

So that is our news! So this will probably be my last post for a few days! Enjoy!

Oh, joy! You'll be in your house tonight!!! You are so quick in getting everything unpacked and settled in...I'm impressed but not surprised...sounds just like you!

I laughed as I read your stories about Jaycee and Jackson. I remember our kids going through a biting and hitting stage, too. Guess it comes with the territory!

Have a wonderful weekend and we'll look forward to seeing all the pictures you'll have for us later!

love,

I remember three months ago when we spent the first night in our new house after living with my mom for a year...what complete excitement! You are going to love it! I can't wait to see your pictures and I especially cannot wait to visit and see it first hand.
