Happy Mother's Day everyone! We had the good fortune of hosting Susan's mother, my mother and the rest of my entire, immediate family for Mother's Day dinner. It was fantastic to have everyone at the new house! We certainly are not fully operational, but Susan and her Mom made heroic efforts today to get the kitchen in living order. That turned out to be key and enough to be able to comfortably host everyone - and my parents brought all of the food, including my Dads famous, marinated flank steak, which was great and really eased the burden on us. Noah had an absolute blast, playing outside with everyone on the big patio and running around inside like a madman...he's probably going to be a bit disappointed when we furnish the whole place - he'll lose his free space!
We transitioned him to a "big-boy" bed with the move - figured we'd do it all at once! His first night was flawless - we had been building up the new house and new bed for a few weeks and he was really excited. Last night, he hopped into bed no problem and was out like a light without a peep. Today at nap time and again at bed time, he was nervous and started crying...felt horrible, but had to let him go. Each time, he made noise for a minute or so, and then fell asleep petty quickly. So, we're knocking on wood while hoping for an okay transition.
Susan, Noah and I went for our first run around the neighborhood today since moving (yesterday!)...we commented to each other how beautiful the neighborhood is - we made a good choice! The move, combined with running everyday on my 215 lbs frame, has really tired out my legs...but happy to report that the streak is still in tact. Writing on fumes here - happy Mothers Day all!
