Monday's move:
There is no such thing as a U-Haul in this country, so if you "shift" to a new address, you have to use a business to help move your belongings. This company was great!
They compactly wrapped and packed everything, and even asked us for instruction (yes, that was a big deal)!
It was exhausting watching the movers for Emma. She just couldn't keep up with them or figure out what crazy thing was going on in our flat!
This is your first glimpse of our new apartment! See, aren't these guys amazing?! They put most everything in its place and were on their way.
Emma, awake from a nap and enjoying her new home... And her fingers.
Tuesday through Thursday we unpacked and began setting up our home. A local friend stopped by and wants to help My handsome husband to have a gathering in our front room--very happy news. Getting Internet and gas for the range stove has been the biggest issue. Today we have gotten those mostly resolved. Here are some moments along the way:
Emma's two mosquito bites from our first night in the house. The working theory is that after a week of killing mosquitoes the rest fear us and our home and cease to enter it. The past two night Emma hasn't been bitten.
Jungling around in her new room.
Two new loves: White Christmas (both the singing and the dancing scenes) and the box that held our faux Christmas tree! She played in that box for half the movie as we set up Christmas decorations and unpacked!
Loving her blocks and tree!
Thanks for the Christmas decorations, Mom! Thanks also to a good friend for hand-delivering fresh cinnamon rolls!
Her first touch and look of awe... Priceless!
That block stack was Mommy-made...
