First Night 'Home'

The first night in our apartment was ... COLD! It was 40 degrees overnight! We have electricity and hot water but NO heat. We put the space heater in D's room and brought J in our bed to keep him warm. I woke up every time J rolled over plus a dozen times to go the bathroom. And did I mention how cold it is! It's taking a lot of will power to peel myself out of the warm covers.

I made it to Target with the boys 'bonking' heads and crying most of the time. We found a shower curtain and a trash can- that D helped hold onto in the cart. Also, I got a cute cap sleeve, striped maternity dress! Jude was so tired and kept holding on tight to my hand and laying on it. Such exhausting times with my boys are usually matched by the most lovey and needy of times. 

We came home to an empty, yet very full house! Daddy was gone but all the boxes and furniture were inside! The boys played for a bit, and ate  raspberries, PB&Js, string cheese, and peas- a fairly normal lunch. Now hopefully the longest naps EVER!!!

Hubby and his brother are off to get some food and a beer to say thanks for all his help. 

I got to sit for a moment on the patio with my faithful dog Lily and soak in some sunshine in 75 degrees! 

Maintenance came by and said they will get the heat working tomorrow before the ICE storm tomorrow night! 

Hubby took the moving truck back and his brother to the airport- WITH the boys. I got to take a nice long, quiet, hot shower AND dry my hair!

Now, getting ready to go out for dinner and J dumped his head in the toilet. D says "better not be in that toilet!" I put some more water on J's head and off we went to dinner! Oh life with little boys!

We went out to dinner... again. We are so ready to cook at home but don't want to pull out too much stuff for only 10 days. Dinner was wonderful at a little Greek place and the owner brought the boys a chocolate cake as we started eating- so that was the boys dinner! Oh to be young and so cute to always get free stuff :)

Now trying to let the boys sleep in the same room! J usually goes to bed a little after 7 and D about 8. But it is 8:30 and they have both gotten out of bed. D shouts cock-a-doodle-doo when ever J lies down. J climbs on D's head when he lies down! This may not work tonight!
