We made it!

Whew after an exhausting weekend we survived the move all in one piece and things actually went pretty smoothly. The only stressful point was in the beginning when the movers showed up 2 hours later than we were expecting and we had to be in Des Moines by 4 to close on our new house so we had a limited time to get everything packed. Luckily it only ended up taking them 2.5 hours to pack and we made it just in time. The weather turned out pretty nice on both days for moving other than a little rain on Saturday and we had lots of family to help bring in boxes and unpack so we have most stuff unpacked. It’s mostly just the miscellaneous items that are left and overall organization and getting used to all the new space.

The boys have adjusted really well. The funniest part is probably just adjusting to having both of us here all the time because they kept thinking Ryan was going to have to leave or anytime we go anywhere they always ask if we are going to Iowa so we keep reminding them that we are in Iowa now :). They started at their new school this week and so far it has also gone really well. Drop off took a little longer on their first day but no tears or crazy clinging and both were in a super good mood when I picked them up and talked about what a great day they had so that made me feel good. I was probably the most nervous about this transition and hope that it continues to go well.

The boys are enjoying their new home and their new "park" in the backyard. Now here’s to hoping that we can get the last few boxes put away and the house cleaned so I can start getting ready for this baby that’s going to be here before we know it :).
