Whirlwind of a Week

This past week has been completely INSANE crazy. Like, makes my normal day to day life seem like a peaceful yoga day. LOL! Here is a brief recap...

A week ago from Friday, we get a signed lease from a renter. Great, right? Oh wait--he has to move in by this past weekend. And...we have a a wedding in Valparaiso this past Friday (2.5 hour drive) to shoot. AND, Jerry can't take days off work because he is saving days for when Madelyn is born. AND... I am pregnant. AND... we have a 3 year old.. AND.. I have had sessions almost every evening. AND... we don't have a house to move into.

SO... We sign the lease Friday 9/9
Schedule movers for Wednesday 9/14
Have a wedding to shoot Saturday 9/10
Wedding show to work Sunday 9/11
Start packing Sunday 9/11 night
Work regular hours Mon-Weds, packing in the evenings.
Movers arrive Weds 9/14 at 8am... pack our kitchen and load up the moving truck to take all of our things to a storage unit. My parents hurry to get their house ready for us to move in for who knows how long with our toddler, 2 dogs and baby on the way.

Arrive at my moms house Wednesday.

Jerry is back at work Thursday. Thursday during lunch, he goes to look at a house with our realtor and decides this is OUR house. I haven't seen it yet. After work Thursday, still cleaning out the condo.

Friday--we are gone all day/night at the wedding.

Saturday--we wake up at 5am to drive home...go straight townhome to keep packing and cleaning. My parents come over to help. My mother in law drops Bella off to me at noon so I take her back to my moms house for some normal time. Jerry and Steve continue working at the townhome.

Saturday at 4:30pm, I take Bella and go see the house Jerry saw. We decide to put an offer on it. It's accepted!

Sunday--Oh wait. I'm hosting a baby shower for my good friend Angela. At my moms house. Haha. Must clean and buy food and get ready for this shower at 2pm Sunday.

Sunday night- townhome is empty and clean. Now we must collapse.

This morning-- Inspection for new home scheduled for tomorrow. We are hoping for a closing date of November 1st, and moving in shortly thereafter.

Uh, yeah.


That about covers that!
