A few photos before the big move

We have less than one week until closing, and a little over a week until we have to be "out." In the meantime, we've been working hard--trying to move, trying to find a house in Fort Collins, trying to say goodbyes. We've been up to Fort Collins the last 5 weekends with the kids, and it'll be nice to finally get up there!
This is a photo from YESTERDAY! Yes, May 12th. Scout woke up, saw all the snow and wanted to go outside. Fortunately, I had not yet packed some of her stuff--although she had to wear some cheap-o boots because I had packed her nice ones!

Here is the little Rubester, getting all sorts of grown up. She can sit by herself for short periods, usually I put the boppy behind her. We also started using the high chair, and she LOVES that. We put some toys in front of her, and she just thinks that's a hoot.
And here is one with Aunt Lacey. We've seen a lot of Aunt Lacey the past month or so. And it's just going to keep coming! Hope she's ready for us.

So, as of next Saturday the 22nd, we'll be official residents of Fort Collins. And we'll keep you posted about the house situation: while we do have a place under contract, we're crossing our fingers that everything goes well. Then, on the 29th, we'll happily head for the east coast and a week in Maine.

So much going on! I am impressed (and hope you get a chance to relax while you are in Maine).

Can't believe the snow...good job being prepared.

Ruby is so grown up--love it!

I can't believe how much bigger and more grown up Ruby looks! So much more hair, and sitting up all by herself! And you guys have been getting the weather we usually get this spring! You can have it!! Hope it gets nicer soon though and have a fantastic time in Maine!
