The Madness of Moving

Wow - it's been forever since we've posted anything new.  The past few weeks have been completely crazy.  We've been in the process of moving from the city to the burbs and we chose to do it ourselves rather than hire movers.  Luckily, my brother CJ and his family were nice enough to come to Philly and help us move all of the big pieces of furniture one Saturday. Our neighbors (old neighbors :() helped too and they were great.

Needless to say, it's been about 3 weeks since we started moving and we're still not completely settled in our new home.  We have stuff everywhere!  It's amazing how much stuff we had in our little 800 sq ft condo.  We now have about 1500 square feet and we can't find places for some stuff - ha! Go figure. 

These past few weeks have also been a lot of firsts for Stella... she got a crib and loves to sleep in it.  She started eating rice cereal for the first time in her brand new high chair, and of course most importantly, she has her very own room!

Anyways, here's a few pictures from the past few weeks.  We'll post pictures of our new house soon, it's just not quite ready for it's debut yet!

Moving Day

Stella has recently found her feet/toes and she LOVES them.  She is constantly holding both feet with her hands and trying to jam her toes into her mouth.  It's so cute!

 

Our neighbors threw us a little going away party.  It's so sad, we have the best neighbors/friends you could ever ask for.  We'll miss them a ton, but they've promised to come visit us in the burbs.

Stella's first solid food experience

 

I'm ready!

 

Yum... kinda.

 

I love to drink water and spit it out all over the place

  

That was easy... bring on the green beans.

Stella's first time in her crib. 

She'll miss that moses basket, towards the end she was touching all sides of the basket because she was so big- yikes!

  

She loves her mobile

Our new homemade headboard.  I'm really excited about it, it turned out much better than I had expected.

 

Morning cuddles.

 

Saying goodbye to our first house. It was so sad, but with every ending, there's a new beginning, right?
