Well I just wanted to pop on and say we are in our house! And it's a beautiful disaster and probably will be for SEVERAL months. Because as it turns out, getting 2 things checked off my to-do list is a HUGE accomplishment these days... Mr Grady keeps my hands, heart, and time FULL. And to be honest, that's been a huge adjustment for me... I'm a very task oriented person, and being a mom is not a task oriented job. Because having a baby for my boss is like herding cats all day! haha
I also have realized how REAL the word "homemaker" actually is... and that making somewhere a home is no small thing. Making a home is one of the things I've looked forward to the most as I've climbed up the adulting ladder. Now if only I had a whole bank account dedicated to make all my decorating dreams come true...
Anyways, now that we've been in our home for a month, it's starting to feel a little more like home-- and less like a very large and messy hotel full of boxes. People would keep asking us if we were moved in yet, and "moved in" implies to me more of the idea of being settled, unpacked, feeling established... so I would reply that we are "boxed in"... we have all our boxes under one roof and sleep among the boxes if that's what you consider "moved in"... but I think we're passed the boxed in stage and more in the organized mess stage... maybe?
Also, I'm never moving or packing again... at least for 5 + years... preferably 10...
