Big Girl Seat!

My Bugg has graduated into a booster seat here at home finally. She has been sitting in one for AGES over at mom and dad vh's but we finally broke down and got her one for home. She loves being able to sit at the table with us! She has a hard time controlling her fruit jars at the table vs in the high chair but only because theres not a ledge to keep them from toppling over.

I do believe the mimic stage has begun! Luckily I was G-rated at the time!! I was packing a box yesterday and looked at it and said "GEEZ, we have A LOT of games!", she went around for the next hour stomping and saying GEEZ GEEZ GEEZ!!! She's also going through the "what's this" stage, nothing escapes her notice. She'll try to repeat after us what it is, sometimes it works....other times its all we can do to not laugh at her.

Its time to start potty training again...this time should work as she is learning to tell us wet and poopy. Plus I went in to get her from a nap the other day and she was in the process of taking off her poopy diaper herself....oh the mess that could have made...*shudder* As soon as we get into the new house potty training is at the top of my priority list!

Speaking of new house, closing is FRIDAY!!! The poor sellers did not realize that Closing means "turn in your keys, the house is no longer yours" and thought they had until the 30th to get out. I called Bellsouth yesterday as I was changing over all our stuff to the new house and they said they had to call the current owners to make sure it was ok to move it over on this date and they said....um, no we don't move til the end of the month! Well, everyone called their realtor and for ONCE we're in the right on this and they HAVE to be out by Thursday and have the place in move in condition for the walk thru inspection. It even says it in plain english on the front page of our contract in the FIRST PLACE THEY HAVE TO SIGN!!! HELLO?!?! Geez...I'm sorry its happening this way for them but unless they have an extra $2k to bring to closing for us there's nothing we can do to help, our house is in the process of being rented out so we don't have to pay the last month of our lease and we've already booked our movers, truck, etc.

Time to get a move on and pack some more boxes! I still have the kitchen and two of the three bedrooms left to do....but David did say he saw progress when he came home from work yesterday, so I guess that means I'm making a dent in our stuff! He's taking Thursday-Tuesday off so he can be around to help some. Saturday we're moving boxes in cars to the new house, Sunday we'll use the Uhaul and help for the big stuff...Monday is the house cleaning, Tuesday is the carpet cleaning and I turn in the keys....PRAY we get most/all of our deposit back and they can get this place rented for June 1st or shortly after!!!

HI HO HI HO, its off to pack I go!
