~We Made It!!!~

We are in Grande Prairie, safe and sound! It was a long 7ish hour drive but we had clear roads, nice weather and ample open washrooms for the pregnant pee factory! We went straight to our new house and started unloading the trailer and within a couple of hours had everything unloaded and a complete mess to deal with. Mary came over with Cole to bring supper and help out with the mess. They stayed for an hour or so till both of them could no longer breathe from being around Tigger. Cole had a hoot chasing Tigger around though, they have so much fun! After they left we surveyed the mess and cried a little bit...So what did we do? We called up Kim and Terry and went for coffee and left the mess! Usually we would stay and unpack and clean for hours but I was too wiped out to care. We came home and made the bed and went to sleep!

Thursday Randy had to work and I attacked the unpacking with a vengeance. I got the kitchen unpacked and stuff moved into rooms that it belongs in. Then I ran out of steam. So I sat on my duff and read the new John Grisham book that Randy had bought me. That was a nice surprise!

Baby's room looks awesome! The crib is exactly what I thought it would be. The stroller that Randy and Mary bought is awesome and the room is a great size for all the baby stuff!

Randy has a three day weekend so today he is working on getting TV's and computers set up and organizing all the stuff that we will be putting in storage in the basement den. I'm watching Cole for a bit while Mary is at an appointment and then we are all heading to Costco. I can't wait to go! We're hoping to get all our shopping and running around done today so we can just veg out and clean the house and get everything set up this weekend. Once that is all done I will post some pictures of our drive (until the battery died in the camera) and the new house. We don't have internet yet, supposed to be working today but it's not. So we're hoping that it's online for the weekend.

Anyhow, off to see what the boy is up to! Take care and can't wait to share some pictures with you!
