Move to Tennessee

Well we made it to Tennessee and we are almost all settled in our new house. Thanks to the Chambers for an amazing send off party, it was lots of fun! The trip down was quite long, I didn't really enjoy being in my car seat for 2 full days straight but Mommy and Daddy made it up to me by moving me somewhere "hot". The weather has been in the 90's almost every single day and we have only seen rain once in 2 weeks! Daddy had his work cut-out for him, he had to drive a 26 ft. U-haul truck with a 12-ft U-haul trailer towing behind, but he did it and I am so proud of him.

Thank goodness Mommy and Daddy had some help once they got to Tennessee, otherwise I am not too sure how they would have done it. Mommy's best friend Amy flew in the day that we arrived and she stayed for 5 days and worked all day, long into the night. She got so many boxes unpacked, it was great. She also babysat me one morning for 3 hours while Mommy and Daddy went to the lawyers to get the keys for the house and I was on my best behavior.

Amy also got to see me try food for the very first time, Rice Pablum, I really enjoyed it but unfortunately my stomach doesn't seem ready for it yet. I tried it for one week and I began to wake up allot during the night, so Mommy and Daddy have decided to wait a little longer before I have food again!!!


When Amy left Gigi arrived and was here for 6 days, it was so nice to see her, I got really excited at the airport when I heard her voice. She helped Mommy and Daddy get all the dirty work done, like stripping wallpaper and painting my nursery. I love my new room, it looks amazing! They also painted over that deep purple colour that was in Mommy and Daddy's room, it was hard to look it and now it looks much better. I have also included some pics of the rest of the house which is coming along really nice.





I was such a good girl for all the unpacking/painting etc..., there were times when everyone was so busy that I would decide to take my naps all on my own, didn't matter where I was. A few times I fell asleep in my Baby Einstein Exersaucer, this seemed to make everyone laugh!


Daddy has been in orientation for the past week and he starts his first day in clinic on Wednesday this week, he is really excited but I think a little nervous too! Mommy, the dogs and I have been having lots of fun together during the day and we always look forward to seeing daddy when he gets home at night.

Well, I should go and catch some rays....just kidding, I know I am too young for that, maybe when I turn 6 months old! Still can't believe I am 5 months old today, wow how time flies.

Hope that everyone will be able to make a trip down to Tennessee, we would love to see you and we have lots of space for visitors!

Love and miss y'all,

Emmie
