New House

We decided, right before Ty came back to AZ for Christmas, that we were going to move to a new house just a block away from where we were. We had to be out by the end of December, so we headed back to Utah a few days early in order to do the moving. We had no idea it would be so hard to move with a baby. Especially one who'd just been spoiled by five weeks of near constant attention. (See Fun With Cousins post below.) It was a nightmare. Every time we put Leo down he would scream his head off until he got picked up again. There was almost no time when both Ty and I were working on the move because one of us was always taking care of the little stinker. By the 30th we were a little desperate to get done. We were loading up boxes with random stuff, dumping the boxes at the new house and bringing them back to be loaded again. (We didn't have enough boxes either.) We were able to get out of the old house in time, but the new house looks like this:

We're slowly but surely getting things put where they belong and it looks like this new place is going to work out really well. We're living in the basement of a partially disabled woman and we'll be helping her with lawn and house work etc. She's actually in the hospital right now and will be there for a few more days. It's been good because we have a little time to get settled before she needs our help. So far Leo's room is the only one that's done.
We're praying that we can get the rest of the house looking like this by the end of next week. Wish us luck!
