Another Address!

We have had a roller coaster of a week and I think we finally are on pretty level ground. Last week right before we moved Jeremy accidentally flushed his phone down the toilet. He is so careful with his things, that this really threw him. And it has made communicating really difficult. Funny, now but really annoying. Then the toilet overflowed and had to be broken to get the cell phone out. Which resulted in a half day with no toilet and then a brand new one for a day before we moved.  Then we packed up the crib and a sleeping bag in our van and then Jeremy dropped me off to head to my last show and he went with the boys to pick up the keys to our new place.  He then went to the new place and there were people here cleaning it. So, they had to leave again, but they were able to get in later and set up the crib while frantically trying to keep Michael away from the stairs. My friend dropped me off at our new place - which was thrilling - and Jeremy gave me the grand tour of sleeping boys in their new rooms. Then the plan was to head back to the other place and pick up our bedding and some breakfast items. But, the car wouldn't start. So, we slept on the bamboo floors and one thin quilt. :) The next morning at 6ish, Jeremy takes the bus, which amazingly takes him to a walmart and picks up a new battery for us.  The boys of course wake up starving and I had one nutrigrain bar in the diaper bag.  Michael falls down the stairs. Jeremy carries the heavy battery in his backpack and thinks to pick up a box on nutrigrain bar, too and saves the day. We (Jeremy) gets the battery installed and we start the back and forth of moving within the city. We get  a good amount done with the seats out of our van. And then Emily, Armando, his kids and Lynne all come done to help with a truck and we get all the big stuff moved over. They were a huge lifesaver. Thank you, thank you! After they headed back to Phoenix, we tried to make a few more trips.  Moving is never very fun.  So we tried to take it slowly and not stress, but it would have been nice to have it all done in one done.  I slept many hours cleaning everything and piled all the extra boxes in one room like a trash pile.  One box was full of packing peanuts I had saved just in cased we moved far away.  Jeremy then takes the boys over to help him clean up the backyard and they discover the packing peanuts. Jeremy walks in, expecting a clean room and helpful children, and finds two little rascals diving and swimming in packing peanut pieces. The entire floor was covered. It would have been really funny if we hadn't been trying so hard to finish up and get out of there. And packing peanuts seriously resist being cleaned up! But, the keys are now turned in.  We are officially in the house on Babbling Brook and it feels so nice. We have been loving the backyard and especially the air conditioning. I will post about all our new favorite things with pictures soon.
