Weekend update

I feel like I should be doing a Saturday Night Live skit with this title. Friday was a hard day, saying goodbye to Maggie. I cried when we left my parents house, and got tears in my eyes almost all the way home, every time I thought about leaving her. However, yesterday made me feel better, because we got a lot done. My parents came down and we packed up the kitchen and put everything into two piles. One being what goes with us, the other being what goes in the pod, which was also delivered yesterday. Hubby went to Sam's club and stocked up on more food items we can send with the movers and we also had two showings yesterday! And still had time to fit in a b-day party for one of Bean's good friends. Bean still seems like something is bothering her, but won't really talk about it with us. On Friday night, we had a date night and our babysitter (who is very close with her) actually got her to open up a bit about it, and told us that Bean was telling her she is nervous about moving. So daddy and I are just showering her with lots of affection, and keeping her busy. She likes to be a "helper" around the house, so we are giving her little things to do. Today will be another busy, but good day. My husband's parents are en route and will be visiting today. This coming week is our last full week of work and school before we are off to make the move. I feel like we are packing for a vacation, and it has not quite hit me yet that this is for two years. I am getting excited...but nervous. Can't wait for the logistics of this move to be over and to be on our way --getting there is the stressful part.
