Moved In!

We are officially moved into our house, but we still have a lot of unpacking to do. Slowly, but surely we are settling in. We are loving all the space and there are so many kids Tucker's age for him to play with. I think there are 3 or 4 other kids just in our apartment building his age. It has been great fun to go out to the park and meet new people. Mother's day was great this year because Tucker actually went up and sang with the primary. He was such a big boy, he went up there all by himself and I could see him singing a few words. When he came back and sat down he told me he "sang all the end words." Meaning the last word of every sentence.

The only bad thing about our new place is how easy it is for Tucker to get the front door open. The dead bolt is very low and easy for him to turn. Yesterday morning I finished getting ready and realized the house was very quiet. Tucker and Halle had gone outside and walked all the way downstairs to the playground all by themselves. Then, that same day, Sheldon and I were just talking a little bit when our doorbell rang. The neighbor across the hallway had caught them sneaking out of our house. Tucker told her, "We're escaping!" We are definitely going to have to do something about the front door.

Here are a few pictures of Tucker, Avery, Graham, and Halle on our moving day. These kids are definitely going to miss each other. Pictures of the house to come after I unpack and clean up the chaos of boxes everywhere.

Boxes

There is a lot of playing in and climbing on boxes happening at our house. We have a lot of stuff to pack up, but of course it's been nice to clean out and have a fresh start.
