While pretty much all of my friends are off on fabulous vacations, I on the other hand kicked off our vacation with a fabulous back packing adventure to the baby's room. I was lookin good sporting the 8 1/2 month pregnant belly, swollen feet and ankles (well, at least by 4 o'clock every day they are) and crickety hips. So.... the weekend before last I started out doing great with packing. I packed the entire baby's room and some of Warren's toys (although, this week he started un-packing a box or two searching for his missing treasures). I guess all the bending and lifting got to me and I had a couple of intense contractions, so I called it a day....or should I say week....
The next week, we made it to the pool a few times with our friends (Janelle & Caryn) and REALLY.....I thought about packing everyday......
Warren drying off right before we were going to go home and pack.............
....(drumroll please).......packing progress last week.......(yes we have officially become alchoholics).....
My goal this week is to have these boxes filled.....or perhaps we'll just go to the pool. It is Texas in July and I am 8.5 months pregnant. Our closing date is the 29th and we are supposed to be ready to move on the 2nd.....do ya think we are gonna make it? Stay tuned.

can't you just shuttle your stuff accross town? Who needs packing anyways? Plus...I'm sure you could pull one of those ward pack-a-thons the night before you move, just have free pizza, and whisky of course.
Oh you will make it! Packing is the worst, especially with kids and a prego belly. Good luck to you, we just finished our move and I am now comfortably resting on our nice big sofa that we removed the window for!
Good luck. I wish I was there to help you. You shouldn't be doing all that stuff while on the brink of having your baby. But it always seems to work out. You'll be fine. I'm excited to hear about your new house

Hey Emily,
Hope your move goes well - call the Payettes to help! Love the Canadian whiskey boxes...heheee...actually liquor boxes are the best for packing dishes up I've found! :) Hopefully Kevin and I will make it down to Texas this year. We'll be excited to see your new little guy and new house!
Ok, now I feel super guilty for our two vacations planned during your move and baby. Don't worry, I'll make it up to you when we get back!!! Think yummy dinners, and lots of play dates!!!
