Moving w/o moving is still a lot of work…

Moving you ask?  Well, Nikki and I have been playing with other ideas for the layout of our house.  We’ve been in the biggest bedroom upstairs, but that leaves Elias’ room on the way to ours.  The problem there is he has no real door to his room, so it’s noisy and bright.  That means we’d literally have to tip toe through the house when he was napping or just gone to bed.  We were considering moving him to the downstairs bedroom, but didn’t love the idea of having him on the first floor with us upstairs.  Then we realized we could move downstairs and he could have our room.  Out came the tape measure, and sure enough it could work.  So Saturday I went to Home CheapO and picked up some shades for our old room, then the moving began.  So, our room is his room.  The downstairs bedroom is our room.  My desk (which was in the downstairs bedroom until a month or so ago) is now in the corner of the living room (over the pet door for those that know where that is).  Elias’ room has the guest bed for now, but it’s looking like the entire upstairs will be his “play area” as it’s already gated off from the rest of the house, and the space is small enough, that’s a good use for it for now.  We’ve got the big bits moved, but the front room is still a bit of a mess with some details, and we’ll need to get some shelves up in Elias’ new room, and some down in our new bedroom.  But so far we really like it, and Elias slept in an hour later than usual this morning (but who knows, maybe he was just tired?).

Outside of that, a “hurricane” blew through offshore last night, so the surfs been up all weekend and it’s rained all weekend.  Debbie’s “51st” birthday is tomorrow, but the party was tonight, OH!!!! and when I walked into Elias’ (new, confused yet?) room this morning HE WAS SITTING UP IN THE CRIB!!!  That’s new to all of us, and will be trouble I’m sure.
