Big Changes!!!

As I was laying CR2 down to sleep the other night, CR said "Don't you think he is a little big for the napper?" The napper is a cozy little attachment on our pack-n-play that we have been using since the beginning. Right beside the napper we have a changing table attachment which makes middle of the night diaper changes oh so easy! I took a look at my sleeping child and noticed that he does fill out the napper from top to bottom.
It is so hard for me to grasp the idea that CR2 is no longer the tiny little guy that we brought home from the hospital! While I love watching my baby change a little everyday, it is insane to think that he is 10 weeks old tomorrow. The infant stage is slipping through my fingers and there is nothing I can do about it.

CR laughed at me when I stated that I may not be able to wait 3 years for number 2! That was our original plan, but I guess we will just have to see what happens ;) I mean of course I will wait at least 1 year! And it would be nice if some best friends of ours (Mel and Jabrone, I am talking to you) would adopt the idea of starting a little family of their own! haha

I have agreed to start using the crib...in the nursery...GULP :( when we move into our new home. That's right, we will be closing on our first home this Friday!!! I am so excited to break open a can of paint and start making that house our home! Vonnie (my aunt) will be coming down to help us with the beginning stages of our move, and my mom and brother will come down at the end of the week to help us move furniture. We figured that it would be a good idea to put my 14 year old brother through some child labor! hhaha! He may be 14, but he has the muscles of an 18 year old!

Although we are looking forward to the big move, it is bittersweet. We have the best neighbors at our complex, and afterall we have lived here for 4 years. Big yellow (you should see the owners paint choice - yuck!) has been our home from the start of our journey in Atlanta and it will be quite strange to leave! I just keep telling myself...4 bedrooms and no more Hot Point appliances! We have a gas stove in our new house and I am so excited to use it! We also just purchased a new fridge, washer and dryer, and most exciting a BEDROOM SET!!! I feel like an adult now! Well, not really...sometimes it still feels like we are playing house :) My mom said that feeling did not leave her until her mother passed away. I do not wish to know this feeling and am so blessed to have my mom on the other end of my cell phone at least twice a day!

So there you have it! Big changes for this little family! Oh yeah...I will be turning 27 on Sunday. Closer to 30 than 20! BOOOOO!!!!
