Trailer Trash
So we are finally all settled in our beautiful little trailer, in the trailer court downtown ( for those of you who know it ) and despite it's location, I couldn't be more happy! It is completely renovated and beautiful!!! It isn't actually a bad thing being down here either.... seeing as how I am going to have to cart around two babies soon (and even though Vashti may be able to push two kids up hill, I really dont think im capable) and even though I can finally drive now WAHOOOOO!!!! I think it will be easier to do my erands by stroller rather then get two babies in and out of the car. With Charli 1st birthday approaching I am a little sad about how fast it goes.... my head will really be spinning when the new bundle arrives. My next blog I will include pictures of my home, my car ( now that I can drive it, I appreciate it more ) and oh yes my swollen belly too! I feel like I am growing a house not a baby.... I can't imagine a few more months added to my poor belly, I am only hoping I dont bust at the seams, it's too late to worry about stretch marks but what do ya do! they are worth it right!!!
So lastnight Charli slept in her crib for the first time and though we both cried it went a lot easier then I had expected. She only SCREAMED for just under an hour, and after 10 minutes of silence I went in to find her pathetically standing at the end of her crib with one hand and her head resting on the rail, so Arron went in and laid her down and after not even a minute of tears she passed out..... thank god!
She woke up at 3am, so I went in and picked her up, only to recieve the tightest hug she has ever given me *tear* and then I threw her on the boob and she only took a minute of crying before she went back to sleep, and slept until 10:30!!!
Tonight only took about 35 minutes of crying.... although I am hearing some whimpering now. Poor baby!!!! must be strong, must be strong, must be strong
Love you all! Pictures will follow soon!

awww Chay Chay, just one of a million little strings that hold Charli to you!! I second Vashti's comment that you are doing a fantastic job! I am looking forward to seeing your new home, it sounds really great. (especially being that close to downtown) I hated having to walk up that hill.
as far as trailers Chay, my happiest time in my life was spent in my 'trailer' in Pt McNeill, with your family and you living so close. I think often of how well it was laid out and hope that is the case with yours too!
love ya

Congratulations on your new home! I can't wait to see pictures of you and your new place. It's hard to believe that one year has gone by so quickly already and we still haven't met your first born :( I'm sure you will be great with your new baby too. I can't wait to meet your little ones when ever we come home this year!!
