Claire
She has been very curious now that she knows how to ask questions and will constantly find me cleaning or packing and ask me "what doing mama" in the cutest voice. It makes me laugh but I always answer so she knows what is going on and that we are getting ready to move. She had fun with the time with Nana until the last day waking up from a nap, but was able to go to a park with family. I was told of her many fun times and she was very possessive of the iPad when we FaceTimed being excited to talk to us. She came out during my yard sale and was very happy to say hello to all the visitors we had.
Shay
I would say she is the funnest little one year old I know right now because she likes to play hide and seek in the girl's room with a tent. She loves animals of all kind and wants to pet them and pull on their faces, hair, and anything else she can reach. The horses in the back yard have been very fun to have and we will miss them when we move, but Shay most of all. Her tastes are adventurous and she enjoyed a pickle this week but the way she ate it made me laugh because she sucked the juices first before eating it. She is also developing another laugh and has full on gut laughs when we play something she is enjoying, which are the funnest and simplest games sometimes.
Sacramento
Chris and I went to scout out houses and the Sacramento area, and had my mom come watch the girls for 3 days while we were gone. We drove a total of 20 hours and went through a snow storm that gave us a 2 hour set back...but we got to look at 4 apartments. We came home with our favorites and even though people have been terrible at communication and we were stressed, we are hopeful! I personally feel more stressed than anything because I always like having a plan and not knowing where we are going to live with less than 2 weeks before we move has me going crazy, but I have faith in the Lord to guide us.
Packing and Selling
In an attempt to rid ourselves of extra baggage, we had a 4 hour long yard sale and sold a few small things. Not nearly enough and since the donation center isn't taking donations right now and most things aren't trash worthy we still have a lot of extra stuff. We will probably have enough space in the moving truck so I'm not too worried, but it would have been nice to have it gone. The packing is continuing and my living room is filling with boxes, I'm cleaning and trying to re-clean what the girls dirtied already. Only a week left to get everything organized then hopefully we will be moving into our new place that we applied for and are just waiting to hear back. We have back up living places if things take longer, but again I'm working on my faith in the Lord to provide since we did as much as we could on our own.
