moving week(s)...

...well it's been over a week now since we moved all of our many pocessions from one house to another and we are still long way off being unpacked and organised!

But here's a little of what's been going on...

:: Milo started nursery and experienced his first real injury. 17 months we've kept him pristine and on his first morning away he manages to fall on to the edge of a toy box!

:: we had a perfect ending to our last day in the old house with the must beautiful double rainbow at sunset (only one rainbow pictured above, but there were two, promise).

:: of course there was the big move day itself, keeping a toddler entertained and away from hazardous boxes was a very difficult task.

:: craft night in took place on wednesday at it's new venue.  It was really really great and I'm already very much looking forward to the next one.

:: I managed to fall the entire height of our new staircase on saturday night (no drinking had been taking place I might add).  It was incredibly frightening I properly tumbled all the way down, but despite a few bruises and a suspected broken finger, which on discovering I could still knit was decided probably wasn't broken after all, I am completely fine.

:: I have been buying lots of flowers to distract from the masses of boxes and general untidiness of the house.  Johnny bought me the sunflowers after the ones I grew failed.  There is a florist at the end of our new street, I imagine this may become a problem.

:: having a safe-for-toddlers garden, means I have to spend a lot of time fishing green tomatoes out of Milo's mouth and sweeping up piles of compost which have kindly been removed from pots for me.  However watching him stomp around outside collecting stones and sticks and squealing with delight at the huge tree, make the very stressful moving business throughly worth it.

Right that is enough, unpacking distraction, for one morning xx

Awww this is a really beautiful post and provides a real insight into the ups and downs of moving house :)

Well done for managing to move with a toddler in tow, thats a real challenge and I hope his nose is better now after his little fall. He's really cute.
