Our life lately..

We are alive! And doing great!
I have neglected my blog for awhile- we found an apartment in the Bay Area close to both families, we love our new place and the area.

We moved into our place a week ago, so pretty much all we are & have been doing is unpacking.
Unpacking drives me crazy. I enjoy packing much more.
Unpacking just means you have to have a place for everything to go. (which we don't) - packing is so wonderful because you know where it's all going- into the box. And then you tape it up and don't have to find a new place for it for a few weeks. I love it.

So as un-fun as unpacking is, it has to be done. We have found a place for most things, with exception of the couple things I just stuff under the bed that have no other place to go.
Parker's room has a couple boxes full of blankets and extra bedding that have no where to go.
And we have boxes full of books... that we need to go get a new bookshelf for because ours got trashed in the move.
Nothing is hung on the walls yet because I got my Interior Designer mother to come over and help pick out some paint colors for the walls for no charge!! Thanks mom :)

Parker is enjoying our new place. He's a happy boy.
He's starting to like his bumbo- he'll sit in it and watch me cook or clean while he eats his toys, or his fingers, whichever is closer to him.

I got this hat at baby gap for $1.99- a steal I tell you.
Originally $16- but I bought it in the summer so they gave it to me cheap


we found him sleeping like this one morning. His hands and arms all tucked under his head.
So Precious.


We went to the Pumpkin Patch with the Harlows- so fun! we did a corn maze and watched the kids dive in a box full of dry corn kernals. Interesting, but looked like fun! Parker even put his feet in!

Mack & Parker are quite the buds these days. They even have matching jammies.
They get along pretty good- but when Mack get's mad at Parker- he tries to steam roll him, as seen below :)

Can't wait to see pics of the new place! Glad the move went well. Lucky you get to be by BOTH your fams!

So fun! I laughed at how you like packing better than unpacking. I'm the opposite. I hate packing. I can never get everything to fit well into the boxes. Simply put... I miss ya Em. And Coop misses Parker.
