Derby wasn't quite sure what to think of the new place and is still trying to figure out where we are and if we're leaving again soon! He's been a trooper, though!
Eric did not want me to take his picture but I wanted everyone to see how hard he was working!
Well, we are officially residents of Fishers, IN. We had our closing on Wednesday for our house and everything went well. The people who bought the house seemed very nice and very excited about their new home! I was relieved when that was over with. On Tuesday evening, Eric said, "I just can't wait for Thursday to get here because I know once it does, that means our move is finished." In a way he was right but oh how we have boxes to go through! There are so many boxes full of things that need to find a home within our new home. It's not easy moving from a house to an apartment but we are excited to make it homey! My sister, Jess helped with the bookshelf, among many other things!!!
We started our move on Thursday night with the truck rental. We have such wonderful friends who helped us get the truck loaded. Thank you, friends!!!! We left Ft. Wayne on Friday morning and headed down to Indy. We got checked in at the apartment complex, signed the lease agreement, handed over the cash and then left our sweet brother Ian to carry in boxes while we left to go hear our baby's precious heartbeat again! Everything at our appointment went great. The heart rate was a healthy 153 beats per minute! Thank you, Jesus!!! Then we came back to the apartment to finish unloading the truck. I, of course, couldn't lift anything and I felt at a loss in the apartment because I didn't know where to begin and I didn't have all of the boxes so I kind of just played the part of cheerleader and encouraged my workers! My mom soon joined us and was wonderful in the kitchen! She unloaded boxes and set up our (VERY SMALL) kitchen! My dad soon came also to help Eric and Ian with the big stuff. Our friends Brock and Angie also came and brought their precious little Mia! She's a doll! Once the truck was unloaded, Eric, myself and my parents headed back to Ft. Wayne to stay the night there. We started our Saturday very early with more packing and lifting and moving. We finally all made it back down to Indy safely. My dad and Eric were only in Indy for about 2 hours before they headed BACK to Ft. Wayne to return the truck. This wasn't just any ol' trip to Ft. Wayne though, it was in an ice storm. I was so glad to have my husband and my dad back in Indy that night. We spent Sunday at the apartment working and trying to get things unpacked and then we both headed up to Ft. Wayne on Monday to clean and put the finishing touches on the house before the closing on Wednesday.
Once we have everything in it's place, I'll take pictures of the apartment for everyone to see. Hopefully it doesn't take me until the baby is here!
A huge thank you is necessary for all our friends and family who helped us with our move. We love you and appreciate you more than you know! Thank you for your love, prayers and support!
Eric, Jen, Derby and little Bambino
