2 Teeth, Food, Shots, Poop & Moving!

The Schmitz house has been a wild and crazy place the last few weeks.
Marlo, now 6 months popped 2 bottom teeth through in the same day. That mixed with her introduction to squash, carrots and peas has tweaked her stomach and caused some issues. Next came her first shots (we are taking an alternative schedule in the shot world) which she took well but mixed with all the "new stuff happening" next came the prunes. She had a great day yesterday and things started flowing again. We eliminated the solids for a few days trying to get her dialed and we are hoping we are back on track. The night life is another story.... Not much quality sleep happening for Mom, Dad or Marlo. All this plus feeling the stress and change happening with the packing for the big move I'm sure has been felt by both the girls, but we are down to a week til' closing on both places (29th) and I feel we are sitting in pretty good shape.
Last weekend the weather finally cooperated to get some outside stuff accomplished. Saturday I got some painting and trim work done while Nicole mulched some leaves, Sunday Nicole's sister Katie came over and boxed up Eleni's Room and some other rooms and I got the shed and garage loaded up in a covered trailer. Now the garage is our box staging area for the Semi trailer that arrives tomorrow. After Katie and Eric just boxed up their life to move last week, I think Katie got a little excited when packing as she left us only 3 plate 2 bowls and one of each utensil to use for this week so that has been interesting. But we are down to the final days with hopes to have everything in the trailer Sunday. We will then be staying at my parents for a couple of nights as we wait to move in on the 29th. Here's a couple photos of our new Digs.
