I completely enjoy the moving process...well before kids. I love putting our stuff in boxes, I clean everything really well so when I open them in the new place its fresh and ready to be put in shelves and on walls. I have moved alot in my life. growing up the longest place we lived in was the 4 years in high school. I have been to countless schools and a few states.
I like starting over, meeting new people and being in new places. Shane and I have been together 5 years and we have moved 6 times. This last move will be our final for a while. I am looking forward to making a home for my family. Making some concrete memories and traditions. Making this place our home.
This time the packing/cleaning process has been a little rough with two little ones running around. Not only can I not pack while they are awake because they take my focus away or Tristen is digging into the box. But it also seems to stress them out because they don't understand why mom is putting stuff away.
I also have to wait to pack stuff up because they need so much stuff on a daily basis. I can't pack toys up yet, curtains, clothes, even dishes.
I think I have a really good packing system now and feel pretty confident I can pack the rest of our stuff up with very little stress on me and the boys. I am just hoping that we can really settle into the new place and not have to worry about moving the next year :)
