2 Days Left

We have 2 days left before the moving van pulls up and we load up all of our trinkets and pretty things  to our new little house! As much as I can say I'm excited, I also feel the urge to pull my curls out! AH! If you have ever moved, you know how it is...especially towards the end. There is STUFF everywhere! Little odds and ends that somehow keep appearing out of nowhere. All the little baubles and misc. items, I swear seem to be breeding like bunnies while we sleep. I've been pretty proud of how organized I have been in my mad packing skills this move. But, these last 2 days are gonna stretch me. Forest boy has been a trooper and going with the flow, like a champ. A couple of my friends have offered to watch him while we do the heavy work, which is AMAZING. Thanks girls! <3 

It makes me sad that I'm so behind on Káel's monthly growing posts. :( I think I'll try to just do a 3 month recap with pictures, once we are all moved in. This move has been so time and brain consuming that it's scattered my blogging brain a bit. But, I'm really excited and looking forward to getting back in the writing groove, hopefully in the next couple of weeks! Thanks for hanging in there with us! :)

I thought I'd share some pics from this past week, using the Instagram app! If you have it, you can follow our day to day journey! username "bohobabybump" 

Well, it's off to packing again I go! Happy day dears!

This is pretty much what I have looked like every day this past week. 

Helping mommy "pack" by re-sorting some misc. things in the bathroom. yes, those are pads left over from his birth. ha!

Big deal for me: organizing, sorting through and getting rid of my jewelry collection before it goes in a box. 

His latest obsession, cars. 

i couldn't remember the last time i had had a "cheat" drink from starbucks. Sam brought me one while packing. the mocha-cocconut iced coffee.....gasp. so good!

A couple days ago, I got to take a small break in the evening and have what was supposed to be a netflix movie night with some girl friends. We ended up talking and laughing 'til midnight instead (which i think is much better ). ;) I tossed on a scarf, some mascara and earrings before heading out the door .

Styling Sarah's hair. We all felt like we were 12 again. 

This Weekend

You guys, it's official! We got the house!!!! Aaaaaaaah! We are SO excited! I've dreamed of living in a little 1950's bungalow for a while now and I'm beyond excited to finally get to nest in one! We have HUGE trees, the biggest deck I've ever seen, a mega big yard with a creek behind our fence! On my new back porch it feels like I'm in the magical woods, for reals! Birds like crazy, lots of shade and we have a tree in our new front yard for a tree swing for the Forest boy! We move in in just over a week and my heart has butterflies! We will be a hop, skip and a jump away from SO many of my favorite spots in Charlotte, which will be so nice, especially since gas has gotten so expensive, plus lots of our friends are close by. 

Today is another full day, let me tell ya! Cleaning, packing, then this afternoon a couple of gals are coming over to talk cloth diapering (Lorean, my cloth diaper guru is leading the discussion.) Then tonight, me and my boys get to watch one of my favorite little girls, Micah.  Saturday is a big event, more than worthy of a mention. You guys, 4-5 families, all friends of ours are joining forces to have a HUGE garage sale. I don't think you can even grasp how much stuff there will be. To top it off, we will have live jazz/bluegrass music provided by 2 of the husbands. Yes, live music. I'm so excited! Hopefully we will sell all of our extra stuff that we have no desire to move and have a grand time! I'll be sure and take pics and do a post on the day. :)  Did I mention that we have gotten ALL of our top quality packing boxes for free from a nice family off of craigs list? Yep, most of them have lids and handles, it's been such a blessing. Well, I'm off to my check list for the day with Over the Rhine playing throughout the house. Have the loveliest of Fridays and a restful weekend! 

his new favorite adventure and free entertainment...the box caves.
