Moving and unpacking!

So after everyone loaded the truck all day and cleaned the house all night (I helped sweep all day, but Mommy was too busy to get a picture of me doing it), we got on the road Saturday morning. It seemed (to me) that we were in the car forever, but it was nice that Grandma was there to keep me entertained while Mommy drove! Grandpa drove the truck with Lily, and Daddy was waiting at our new house when we got there. He had lined up some people to help unload the truck, and they did a great job. I got a quick tour of the house, and then I got to go make some new friends and play! (One of the ladies that Daddy works with lives just a few miles away and has a 3 year old daughter, so I went to their house to play while everyone else was working!)

When I got back to our new house, my room was all set up, with my new dresser and a lot of my toys all ready for me. They even had the living room and Mommy and Daddy's room pretty well set (the furniture at least). I went to bed, because it was a long day, and I think that everyone else did shortly after me.

On Sunday, I got to play and explore our new house while Grandma was unpacking the kitchen and Mommy, Daddy, and Grandpa were unpacking other things, and playing with me. Then we all went into town to eat lunch at Olive Garden! (I love those bread sticks!) We stopped to do a few errands, and Daddy drove us around a bit, showing us things he had found since he has been here. I fell asleep in the car, and took a nice long nap even after we got home, while everyone else continued to unpack.



Later in the afternoon, our neighbors stopped by to say hello and I got to meet the kids who live next door. I know that I am going to have a lot of fun with them!

On Monday, Daddy went to work, Grandma and Mommy were still unpacking, and Grandpa was playing with me! Then we got in the car, because we had to take Grandma and Grandpa to the airport in Baltimore. I fell asleep on the way, but woke up in time to tell them goodbye. It was a lot of fun having them here for a few days.

After we got back, Mommy caught me trying to wear her shoes! (This happens on a regular basis). And I can almost walk in them too!



I have been learning so much in the last few weeks. I have added new words to my vocabulary, such as ball and stop, and I am understanding more and more every day. I go over and point to the fridge when I want a drink, and I know where Mommy keeps my snacks, so I go and point to them when I am hungry. It won't be long before I'll be able to get them for myself!
