Ok, so we've had the internet for about a week now, and i've only posted twice since then.

Umm. Honestly? I've not had much motivation for blogging lately. I mean, I wish I did...I just don't. When I have free time- which isn't that often being as I am really busy being a mom by myself now, and i've also started working too- I always find something else to do. Like making cool things for my new room, or organizing things, or hanging out with my roomie. This is the first time i've even opened my computer in two days.

I suppose when life settles more and I get used to managing my time between being a mom and working, and once our house is all the way put together...I will probably be back here as much as I was previously. But until then, don't be surprised if i'm not posting every single day.

PS Porter's birthday party is next Saturday, so i'll be getting that ready this week. Look for pic next week!!

We FINALLY have the internet! I can't wait to be back here :)

Our house is 80% unpacked as of right now, it's been a slowww process, but we're getting there. Unpacking and reorganizing with two kids is not easy!

So much has happened since we've moved!
Porter spent the first weekend away from me with his dad, the kids are sharing a room, Porter's first birthday happened (which we celebrated as a family on the actual day- his party will be at the end of the month), i'm in the process of decorating my bedroom, and I started training at my new job. I will post more on each of these things as the spare time arises :)

Sorry I've been so absent...moving is a b*^%#!

Katie and Lily (my kinda sister-in-law and my niece, who I'm moving into the new place with) have been living with Jeremy and I for a couple months now. They only had some of their stuff there, and the rest is in storage. So yesterday, we packed up a big Uhaul truck with our things at the house and moved it all to the new place. We will move the stuff from storage early this week hopefully! Our house is a disaster right now, haha, and most of the furniture is coming from storage.

We have also painted our bedrooms, and plan on painting a few other rooms too at some point.

No Internet yet, so just blogging from my phone at this point, but hopefully soon! I have so many things to document here :)

Porter's 1st birthday was yesterday!!!! Of course on moving day, so we didn't do much. Today we had a cake for him (which he LOVED!), made by Lily, and he opened a few presents. I will hopefully be able to post with pictures about that soon. His actual birthday party will take place at the end of the month...I wanted to wait until our house was livable before we had people here for that :)

So all is going well, and I'm really excited to be kinda moved in! Hopefully I'll post pics soon :)
