Here's how our day went:
Little Bear woke me up bright and early as usual -6:45 or so. I got up, picked him up, walked down the hallway, and surveyed the living room:
IT WAS MOVING DAY!! I hyperventilated for a minute or two and then walked into the bathroom, looked at myself in the mirror and thought "I CHOOSE JOY." Check out the big grin:
I changed a poopy diaper:
(you didn't really think I would post a photo of poop, did you?)
And then I made an especially yummy Joy Rebel Day breakfast for myself and Little Bear:
(That's cherries, homemade muffins, and marble cheese)
I thought it was delicious. Little Bear wasn't feeling too hungry, I guess:
After breakfast I cleared some space and Little Bear helped me sort the laundry:
So helpful!
July 1st is a holiday here in Canada-land, so in the afternoon our wonderful friends came to help us move. They fit an astounding amount of stuff in the van! Here's what was left after the first load:
And this is the van. Kind of like 3-d Tetris!
Our friend Greg stood guard:
No one was going to steal our stuff with him watching over it!
We made a second run with the van to pick up the bits and pieces, and then we all went over to the new place and had supper in the backyard:
(This photo has inspired me to invest in awesome patio furniture as soon as some comes up on kijiji -now that we have a back yard I I want a back yard oasis!)
Here's our new view!
The weather was grey and a little chilly, as it's been for the past month or so, but it was so green and beautiful! I can't wait to live here!
The grass was wet, so I tried to keep Little Bear on the patio, but he managed to find things to explore (aka get into) anyway:
"Hi Daddy!"
And to finish off the day we spent some time inside. Some of the guys had a crazy dart gun fight all over the house while Little Bear practiced getting up and down the step from the living room to the dining room.
I can tell that he can't wait to live here either.
Soon, little one...soon!
He fell asleep on the way home:
I put him to bed with no trouble and had an hour to myself before watching the fireworks from our balcony (no photo because I didn't want to miss them). I'm going to miss being able to see the fireworks from our house, but I think the trade-off is well worth it.
Happy Joy Rebel Day everyone! I hope you had a great one too!
