Today was a whirlwind!
We woke up in the Chicago condo this morning and I must say it was a weird feeling. Jonathan and I slept in the queen bed and Daddy slept on the sofa. It wasn't a very comfortable night for any of us. Well....maybe JH, he'll sleep through just about anything.
Since we packed the condo up the night before and we had nothing but a set of clean clothes and our toothbrushes, we headed to IHOP for breakfast.
When we got back to the condo we started doing our last minute cleaning. The movers were about an hour late so we were a bit behind schedule. Daddy had to work so JH was my little helper making a few trips to the car, cleaning the floors, and washing down the kitchen and bath. Once the movers came and took the few remaining pieces from the unit we did one more walk through and Daddy on his hands and knees washed the floors as he crawled out the door. It was a bit emotional since I put many hours of sweat, tears, blood and love into designing the condo. As for Jon, it was his dream condo in the city. We have a renter who is moving in Monday so we had to move fast and keep our emotions in check. As we drove away from the condo, JH said "Good bye to the Chicago!".
When we got home we were exhausted. The car was completely loaded with EVERYTHING from the condo. There wasn't another crevice that we could have stuck anything else. The temperature outside was in the high 80's with 100% humidity. Daddy and I looked at each other and said, "we just can't, and it will wait until the morning!".
So Daddy went in and made us a delicious curry dinner. JH and I played outside for about 30 minutes on his new play set until dinner was ready. I have to say being in the city was nice, but this is now our home. To play in the yard with no worries, to have JH run like no other child could, and to sit back and look at what we have built here in MI was just awesome.
After dinner we had a little sit nice time and then JH went off to bed.
