Thank You Thank You Thank You

Thank you to all those who helped us out this week. Jason and Jim were out at the storage unit early on Saturday morning and my family kept our precious little one. The past 10 days have been VERY difficult (I'll get to that later) and after arriving home today, I just know things are looking up. A sweet sleeping baby on my chest that smells like ketchup might be the reason I have a warm feeling today. Oh how I missed my precious side kick!

I drove to Dallas to meet Chris early Thursday afternoon and the two of us headed to Tulsa. YES, the two of us. We left Hailey over night (2 NIGHTS!!) and agreed that Texarkana would be the best place for that. She has grown very comfortable and we felt she would be do okay while being away from me for her first time. Plus my parents house are child proof which is very important to us at Hailey's age. She attended school during the day and played with Poppy, Mia and Auntie "CaCa" Collins in the afternoons and evening. Oh and we must not forget Bella. I'm sure Bella is a worn out little dog. Each said that Hailey was perfect and no issues at all. We are so THANKFUL for that! As if her bond with Collins wasn't already strong enough, it is even stronger. She wakes up asking "where Caca" and "where Bella".

So with the move from Tulsa to our storage unit in Keller finished, we are starting the process checking off our list. Here is a short version 1. Move 2. Tanner. 3. New puppy for dad 4. Trip (can't go on the cruise on 1/23- Chris is ONLY OFF on 1/23!) 5. Training 6. Storage building 7. Move. Hopefully things will begin moving along sooner than later. Like I said, this is a short version of our list. Each number has a lot of tasks under each one but we have to start somewhere right? Tanner is with Chris in Austin testing out his new family as I type. We have been praying that it works out or we find another place. I'll post more on Tanner in another blog. It's a sad, tear jerker so grab a Kleenex.
