We're officially in

We have officially moved in to the house.

I think I'll just sit here and let that statement sink in...ah...I like the sound of it.

Last Monday was a full day. Brett, with the help of my brother-in-law, Louis, my parents, his parents, and my brother, Aaron, moved all the rest of the boxes and furniture in to the house. The place is teeming with boxes and bags that have yet to be unpacked.

Brett, Sophia and I spent our first night here last night, and it went pretty well. Sophia sort of woke up in a panic in the middle of the night because she didn't know where she was. Poor thing. We keep changing her surroundings, but at least this time, we're sticking with this place! I can't wait to unpack everything and find her nightlight. I think that will help her sleeping a lot. Brett and I kept hearing all the new creaks and moans of a new house, and we discovered that we may need to get a blackout shade for our room since the light in the front lawn (which is turned on by some neighborhood-wide sensor) shines right in to our bedroom window. We could seriously almost read at night without turning on a light in our room. Brett also never heard it, because he sleeps like a rock at night, but I think we also have a little visitor in the house. I kept hearing some small animal rustling around in the boxes and bags in our room. Ugh. We heard something out in the garage this afternoon when we were leaving for the grocery store, so hopefully whatever it is escaped our house when we left today. We just had the house sprayed for ants, so I hope I don't have to call them back and ask them for mousetraps or something.

Brett leaves for work tomorrow, and I have a bunch of things to do while he's gone. Thankfully, I will once again have a lot of help. Laurie, my sister-in-law, and Brett's mom are headed down to Noblesville tomorrow to help me unpack some more. I think I might have a friend coming over on Thursday to help some more. Sophia and I are also headed to the pediatrician tomorrow for a checkup. I'm eager to see how much she's grown in the past three months. I'll keep everyone updated!
