We only have one more weekend left to get things ready for the big move. Unfortunately, that means this past weekend was pretty hectic. Luckily on Saturday, Paige took a 3 hour nap. We got a ton of stuff packed and I really started to feel like we were making progress. We also went to storage on Saturday (and Sunday) to go through some of the things in there that we'll want to sell this coming weekend at our moving sale. The more we can part with, the better. We are a bit concerned everything might not fit in the truck. So far, through ads on Craigslist and to ASU grads, we've already sold our grill, entertainment center and curio cabinet. We also sold the fishtank to the new buyer of the house. (Update: we also have sold the birdbath and our loveseat to buyers from craigslist).
I think Paige is starting to feel the effects of the move. She seems to be needing a little bit more attention than normal. And if she's not getting attention, then she starts getting into trouble. If there's one thing in the room that you don't want her to touch, she'll be all over it. The other day she managed to open the oven door while I was baking a casserole (update: to clarify, she only got the door about part-way open, and we were on her in a second!)! So now we don't let her go into the kitchen if we can help it. When we were at storage this weekend, she would take off running just so we would chase her. It's scary there too, because you can't see around the buildings, so if she gets too far from us she could run out in front of a car.
Father's day was very low key. When dad woke up, we gave him his presents. He got a bike seat for Paige to go on the back of his bike, a wireless controller for the wii, and a new tie. After gifts, we went out to breakfast and then headed right over to storage before it started getting hot out.
Next weekend will be our moving sale and we'll finish packing just about everything up! Time is going by really fast.
