We made it!

At times it seems to good to be true. The girls and I flew into Washington Thursday and are not quite adjusted to the time difference yet. It doesn't help either when we're up most of the night dealing with puking babies. All three of my girls have the pukes. Haley started it, followed by Morgan who started in the car (all over her car seat), and Elizabeth took her turn about 1:30 this morning. Elizabeth and Morgan puked so many times last night and this morning I last count. I think Haley is at least over it. Morgan might be too. She's asking to eat but I would only let her have a piece of toast. Time will tell. Such is life for a mom of young children.

The trip over went very well. It seems weird to say but it was some what relaxing. After the two weeks of packing up the house and non-stop activity it felt good to sit down. The girls did really well also. Morgan even took a nap for about an hour. We were all thrilled to see Hans at the baggage claim area waiting for us. He was standing there alone. It was probably about 5 minutes between the last person that got off the plane and us. When we exited everyone was standing waiting to board the plane we had just come off of (looking annoyed at what was taking so long). I had Elizabeth and Morgan in the double stroller and Haley on my back in the baby carrier. Of course all eyes were on us as we came into the airport and I looked around and said "Sorry it took me a while." Several started to laugh.

If I have 5 cents for every time somebody said "you've got your hands full" I would be a millionaire. Little did they know I'm also 5 months pregnant. I'm definitely showing to people that knew me before but to strangers I just look a little chubby in the middle.

Our stuff got here yesterday. As soon as the girls get better I'll start unpacking. It's so good to be back in Washington and oh so very good to be with my husband again. It was three weeks between the time that he arrived and we arrived.

Thank you to all those who blessed me beyond measure in helping me make the move. I really would not have been able to do it with out you all. Bless you all!

13 Days!!!!!!

Hallelujah!! We're coming home. at 3:25 on Feb 22nd the girls and I will be on Washington soil once again. This time to stay. That means I have 13 days to pack up the house and finalize moving details and everything else. Right now 13 days seems like an eternity but I do have quite a bit to do. So hear I go...It's time to pack!

3 Am and Awake!

It's 3 am and I can't sleep. After laying in bed for 40 minutes or so I desided to get up except now I don't know what to do with myself. Yesturday I was really struggling with the uncertainty of my being in Michigan. I don't want to be hear and there is no date of when I'm not going to be hear any more.

I would try and fill my days with activity to help pass the time but the wheather (if you read the post below) does not permit such things. Maybe I'll go work on my scrapbook. This to shall pass.

FRIGID!!!!!!!!!

Below are a couple of alerts from the wheather in my area.

Dangerous arctic airmass to provide bitterly cold wind chills... .Arctic air is settling into southeast lower Michigan today. Temperatures will remain in the single digits today combined with winds of 15 to 20 MPH. This will produce wind chill readings to around 20 below zero across all of southeast lower Michigan this morning.

In addition...Wind chill readings will reamin at dangerous levels...Near 20 below zero... A wind chill advisory means that very cold air and strong winds will Combine to generate low wind chills. This will result in Frost bite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not taken. If you must venture outdoors...Make sure you wear a hat and gloves.

Needless to say I am not going to church this morning. We would all get frost bite for sure with the amount of time it would take me to unload all the girls and get inside the church. Freezing to death isn't really the way I want to die. Currently it is -3 degrees but feels like -19 with the wind chill factor. That folks is way way way way way way way to cold.

For those of you who might not know the lastest news. Hans took a job in Washington. He is already there. The girls and I hope to join him soon.
