We're still homeless...

Yep.  We moved out of our house in Maryland and put all of our stuff in Pack Rat containers ready to settle on our farm in NC on May 29th.  Well here it is May 30th and we're still homeless.  We are trying to stay optimistic and focus on the bright side - that we have three happy, healthy babies and family who are willing to help and let us invade with our circus until things work out.

I'll post pictures soon but this is more for record keeping.

JJ - has one tooth (broke through the skin on May 19th) and has another on the way, ready to break the skin any day now.  Then he will have his adorable bottom two chompers and watch out they are sharp!  He also has started pulling up EVERYWHERE but most memorably was the first time... IN THE REFRIGERATOR (May 24).  So hilarious and fitting for our big boy.  He also made some forward progress the other day on hands and knees (May 25), instead of the very efficient army crawling that he had been doing.  He's been a busy guy ticking off the milestones this month.

Rylie is working hard on getting the forward motion on hands and knees but crawls ALL OVER THE HOUSE on her belly, so no need to focus too much on the traditional crawling methods.  She is brave and very independent.  She will go into dark rooms, closets, under everything, so don't turn your head or Rylie will go missing!  She is also pulling up to her knees all the time.  She doesn't progress to standing yet, she's content to sit on her knees and play.
They are both very happy and LOVE to talk so big in their high chairs at every meal.  The dinner conversation has gotten quite noisy. :)

Natalie is hanging in with the refugee status but keeps asking when we are going to our farm, or if we are going back to our house.  Poor thing, she gets that this is rough but she's still happy 99% of the time.

If it crosses your mind, please say a prayer that things work out to settle on both houses in June. We'd really appreciate the positive thoughts and prayers.

Pictures to come, I promise!
