Flanagan Clan

Things are in disarray in our tiny apartment as we continue to pack things up for our big move on Saturday. On Tuesday we signed our life away as we were given document after document to complete the loan process. Now we’re just waiting for everything to go through the system, which will take until sometime on Friday. Depending on how quickly things go, we might get the keys as early as 5 PM, though normally it would take until 9 to get them. We’re very eager to finally move into this house that we’ve waited so long to find!

In the meantime, we’ve been very busy with all the other details that come with moving. Yesterday I set up water and garbage/recycling and Andrew changed our electric and gas account to the new address. Today I went to Walmart and bought everything that Patrick needs to sleep in his big boy bed, which he will be getting from Grandma and Grandpa. They still have half of a bunk bed that I slept on when I was in 6th grade! I also got some spray paint to paint some barstools that my mom is giving us. Diane graciously painted them for us today, since Andrew was away at work and breathing paint fumes is bad for the baby. This afternoon I did some more light packing. My mom and Diane will be over tomorrow to help me finish packing up the majority of the kitchen. We keep the apartment until the 30th, so there’s no rush to get everything out this weekend, thus giving us a little bit of flexibility!

Other than that, there’s really not too much new here!
