We finally moved into our house in Pennsylvania. A lot has been happening since we got to PA, but luckily we survived two and a half weeks in a hotel. (Winnie's night terrors did not help us much, but like I said, we survived.)
Our household goods made it safely from storage in SC and despite finding out some interesting quirks of our house, we are sort of settling in. I've managed to paint three rooms and hang some pictures. We are redoing the kitchen because the bottom cabinets have bad water damage. So I've yet to unpack any kitchen stuff. We are living off of take-out, microwaveable stuff, occasionally a crock pot meal, and once in a while a grilled meal. Luckily Kevin's dad has been able to come and redo a bunch of electrical work, move some gas lines, and redo some plumbing. We decided to purchase Ikea kitchen cabinets because they were the most economical, and they will arrive on Saturday, October 4. So we will be assembling cabinets for a while after that and then hopefully installing them soon after that. Hopefully. This has been a learning process for us and I've dreaded living in a construction zone, but we've been living in limbo for so long that it's not much different. I'm just really looking forward to making homemade, healthy, non-prepackaged or take-out food. One day, one day...
My pregnancy is going fine. This kid will probably come out with a third arm or something because of all the crap I've eaten due to minimal ability to make good food, but maybe the third arm will come in handy fixing all the problems with our house.
Other than my general impatience to finally living a regular lifestyle that does not involve two trips to the hardware store a day, we are all fine and dandy. The girls are doing well and Kevin likes his job and I'm sleeping pretty well, so life is good. I think Pennsylvania will be an excellent experience for us...once I have a completed kitchen.
