Moving Up

We moved into our THREE bedroom apartment this past Saturday- and the boys are already beginning to sleep better. As much as I want them to room together, they get so much more rest apart. Movers came for about 2 hours on Saturday morning to help hubby move the big stuff, and I just watched the move from the patio with the boys. It's so hard for me to not help move boxes, but my baby bump is getting in the way! 

Oh and more on that-- at my first midwife appointment last week, I was informed that my abdominals have separated. Probably because I did help (carry boxes) on the move from Fort Worth to San Antonio. So I have really been restricted now. I have to watch the boys but also try to not lift them! I take J the bathroom constantly and am lifting him onto the stool and of course I'm doing it improperly and just bending at the waist. How does one bend the knees to pick up a toddler a foot off the ground? I'm trying and I look pretty hysterical. So I'm hoping I don't damage my abdominals further and cause a "mummy tummy" in which one looks 5-6 months pregnant for the rest of their life! 

Then Sunday, we went to church and went to check out the Central Market in town- about a 20 minute drive. I love their food, but this location is just not the same as Fort Worth and we were really nostalgic for 'home.' We ate there after shopping and both boys fell asleep on the way home. Fine for J, he is still easily moved in his sleep. But D, oh no he still had to walk himself and open the door with the key and by then he was no longer tired. I think he finally did fall asleep but not until he wound back down. Then we met a group of young families from the church at the park. It was an amazing park, Phil Hardberger Park, but a different area than we had been to before. The boys loved playing on the playground, snacking, and playing with some other kids from their preschool class at church. 

And now after getting we have been faced with some pretty big life decisions that are unfolding quickly and we have been trying to keep on top of! I will update on that soon!
