life has been a little busy lately

holy cow i can't wait for this mini whilwind to settle down.  we made it to colorado finally.  i say finally because after everyone had boarded the plane last night and waited for 15 minutes, they told us that our pilot was a no show.  flight delayed for a full 2.5 hours.  we got in late.  i got to sleep at 3:15 am.  did i mention that i woken up at 5:50 am?  baby is trying her hand at some early morning waking lately.  it's happened thrice.  i wanted to say "thrice."

remember that terrible week in colorado when we came out here house hunting?  baby was sooo sensitive and clingy and having a terrible time sleeping.  well, lately has been the mini version of that.  ever since we started packing stuff in boxes she's been all out of sorts.  her whole little world turned upside down.  yesterday she woke up at 5:50.  we turned in our apartment keys by 8.  spent some time on campus at the stanford bookstore and spent the rest of the afternoon eating clam chowder bread bowls at fishermans wharf and hanging out at pier 39.  when i say "we" i mean myself and baby girl.  and my youngest brother in law, my father in law, my mother in law, and her parents.

that's because honey left with the uhaul somewhere around 7 am.  his brother is driving with him but only for the good company.  his brother can't actually drive.  honey drove from 7 am til after midnight.  and today he'll drive the rest of the way.  salt lake city to parker colorado!

so it's been busy and challenging with all of those weird little things.  like not having a pack n play.  MIA pilots.  nursing/feeding baby purees and finger foods while we make our way around stanford, san francisco and two airports as "hillier, party of six"

well, baby has fully unpacked both of our bags and is bored with that.

wish us luck.
