Up late because I couldn't sleep, and I didn't want to wake Chris up with my restless legs. He took some friends to the airport early this morning and didn't get a whole lot of sleep so I know he's really tired. Addison is sleeping with her crib converted to a toddler bed for the first time right now. Chris bought a fancy bed rail, and I went in to check on her and she was swinging her legs at the very end of the bed and definitely not sleeping. :) I laid her down and blankied her up, and didn't hear any more noises. Hopefully she didn't fall asleep on the floor! ;)
Tomorrow Chris is working a 9-5 shift, which is what he'll work until he starts his leave. He hasn't decided how much to take, but one of his bosses said to just take lots, so I'm hoping he will only work a few more days this week and then be done. I'm not looking forward to him leaving at all, and a little more time with him home will be nice.
We signed more papers today, and scanned them back to the loan people. We had docu-signed them, and they wanted "wet" signatures instead. Hopefully it doesn't hold up the process too much; we're hoping to get the keys Thursday or Friday! We will probably start moving the unnecessary stuff at first, and then pick a day when some friends can help to move everything else over. We still have to buy a fridge; I've been looking for a deal on craiglist or Travis yard sales. I can't decide if we should get a stainless steel one, which is what we want to eventually upgrade everything to anyways, or a black one to match the existing appliances. Chris emailed a yard designer for an estimated price on just a web design for our backyard, and we were shocked at the price! 800 to 1500 just for a design! So we will definitely be waiting on that portion of the improvements list. I've been trying to decide where I want things, but really cannot picture the bedrooms' layouts at all, which is frustrating.
I went through Addi's baby clothes today to pass them on to a friend who's expecting, and cried over her tiny preemie clothing. I decided I couldn't get rid of those little outfits, and Chris said she could use them for dolls later on. I also kept all her striped Old Navy one piece outfits that Chris loves, and of course all the knitted things I've made for her. All the other adorable outfits go to my friend. It was a lot harder to do than I thought it would be. We have pretty much decided that we're done having kids, which I'm totally ok with, but all those cutesy baby girl clothes made it more real, and I was really sad about getting rid of them! But I have to downsize for the move. We have probably half the storage space in the new house than we do here. I definitely need to get a Goodwill run ready. Asher has an enormous box of clothes he's grown out of, but I don't know if our other pregnant friend is having a girl or boy yet. I'll probably keep it until they find out, or have Chris ask if they are even interested. I love hand-me-downs, but I know most 1st time parents want their babies to have all new things!
I should probably try to go to sleep; Asher has been sick for 4 days now, and I'm really hoping tomorrow he's feeling better, because we are both worn out.
