It's the little things

What an exhausting week!  Moving, unpacking, working...all of these things can really take it out of you.  It is all over now.  We have officially sold our home and besides little projects here and there we are settled into our new place.  Although I am thrilled to be starting this new chapter of our lives, it is also bittersweet.  Our old home will always have many memories attached to it, good and bad.  It was the first home I ever purchased, the first home Chris and I lived in together.  We got engaged, married, and even found out we were expecting a little Smith in this home.  We also had the pleasure of experiencing many of the unpleasant things that come with home-ownership...HOA, floods, mice, bed bugs, cockroaches (just to name a few, EWW).  Even though our new place is not permanent, it will also be filled with lots of firsts...The arrival of Little Smith; This will be his or her first home, filled with lots of love and excitement.  I already got to experience one of those firsts!  I can now see the little one moving from the outside.  It is a little unreal seeing your belly bulge out in different spots because of your baby moving inside.  It just makes everything more real!
