This is what I deal with every day........

This is a daily occurrence at our house.  The video is crooked but it is worth a watch.  

Moving

 Matt and I are no strangers to moving.  This move will be our 5th move in our 5 1/2 year marriage.  Somehow this time it feels different.  Usually I am very prepared, over prepared probably, for our moves.  I start packing months in advance and have everything organized and clean.  However, this time I have 2 babies "helping" me out.  Last night Matt and I were up all night getting everything ready for the movers to come today.  I still don't feel as ready as I usually am, and the movers are doing all of the packing and moving for us.  Also, it is kinda sad to leave our town home.  This is the home where we brought Macallister and Mayble home for the first time.  Mac took his first steps here and we will be leaving it all behind.  Don't get me wrong I am super excited to move and for this promotion for Matt, I am just getting sentimental these last few moments at home.  We have had a lot of wonderful moments here in St. Louis but we are ready to start this new chapter in our lives.  All of these pics are from the past few weeks getting ready to move. 
 With all of the toys this little guy has, a plastic bowl kept him entertained that night!
 Such a helpful big brother!!
 Such a handsome little fella
 All dressed up to go to Dad's farewell dinner at Porters Steakhouse.  
 My beautiful babies
 Being very helpful- like always.

 Mac's new haircut.  His "Oklaho-mawk".  Getting this kid ready for Oklahoma- I think he needs a big belt buckle that says MAC  :)
 Mayble is getting so big so fast.  She rolls over so fast it was hard to get this picture

 Mayble loves to watch tv.  she will just sit in her chair and just be mesmerized. This comes in handy when I am chasing Mac all over.

My wonderful husband

 Just to start off I would like to say that I asked my husband if I could write this post and he told me no. I am sure that he will get over it.  I just needed to comment on what is going on right now. My husband has accepted a job with HMA as the CEO of their Madill, OK hospital.  So, we are moving!!! He starts on June 1 and we are so excited. Matt has worked so hard and I am so proud of all his accomplishments.  He is such a wonderful husband and by far the more superior parent.  I am so thankful that he allows me to stay home with our beautiful children.  He is such a great provider, and we have been really blessed.  I am so excited to go on this next adventure with him.  Just a little side note, I said in the previous post that I might need a shopping  intervention.  Well, Heavenly Father has stepped in and is sending us to a town that has only one Walmart.  No TJ Maxx or mall or Target.  Wish me luck :)
