Home Sweet Home....well, almost

We are finally in our house! We closed last week and the movers brought our things Friday. I had forgotten how much work moving is! Caroline is adjusting pretty well to her new house, but is still a little clingy. Add that to her switching to one nap a day (I tried to keep her on two naps but she wasn't having it) and you have a very tired mommy who isn't getting this house unpacked as fast as she had hoped! I really think I will be unpacking boxes forever.
When we got the keys last Tuesday we spent a few days cleaning. Luckily we have my mom who is a super cleaning machine! She worked for two days to get the kitchen perfect. We considered hiring a cleaning service but thought they wouldn't pay as close attention to detail. Scott has painted the master bedroom (Caroline's room is his next big project) and my dad cleaned all of the carpets. It has been a family project to say the least! My parents have been so helpful. Dad brought us dinner twice in the past week and is doing it again on Saturday. It is so nice not to have to worry about cooking.
The house is awesome...everything we could have ever wanted. We are convinced that we want to live here forever! Once everything is unpacked I will take some pictures.

So much hair...

Caroline is finally getting more hair (yay!). The only problem is that it grows faster in the back than on top. You all know what this means....Baby Mullet. Thank goodness for her little curls because it helps! I love all of the bows and headbands Grandma Sue (Amy's mom) gave to her but Caroline refused to keep them on her head. She and I had a little chat the other day about this. I told her we either wear some bows or get a trim. She must have understood because she will now tolerate hair accessories! :) When I put them in and show her the mirror she gets so excited....such a cutie!
We have found this great park in Elk Grove. It has different playgrounds and a water area. The first day I took her there she was terrified of the water. It sprays and splashes from all directions and she wanted nothing to do with it. We took her back today and all of the sudden she loved it. We didn't have her bathing suit on because I didn't think she would want to get wet so her clothes were soaking wet. She had a blast!
