The time has come

After all of the blood, sweat, and tears that have gone into the process we are finally moving this weekend! I am elated and so is the rest of the family. This is so much more than just a move for us, I will finally get to plant the garden of my dreams and my son's precious little buns will be back in cloth diapers since we will have our own washer and dryer once again.
Now I can once again focus less on housing issues and more on being a wife, mommy, and birth activist! Possible trip to The Farm this summer ::fingers crossed::!!  Before and after photos to come in the following weeks.

So far, so good!

I feel a little like I was in an automobile accident. We spent so much time tearing things apart at the house this weekend and I got all of the ceilings repainted and now I cant move without being in a bit of pain. Nothing like a huge project to whip my lazy butt into shape! Last night we brought a huge load of materials back from the home improvement store and I cant wait to get back out there and start using them!  My poor husband was putting up drywall until 11pm, but thankfully he had some helpers.
The day of closing was awesome, not only because we finally got the keys to our home, but my 21 month old finally used his potty for the first time. I cried happy tears, the poor kid probably thinks his mom is nuts :) He amazes me every day with all of the things he is learning. I am so blessed to be his mother.
