Working

I have been working really hard at getting our house ready to go on the market. Closets have been dejunked, walls and doors have been "magic erased" and touched up, and baseboards have been painted. We signed realtor papers yesterday, our house was the main subject in a photo shoot, and we have a lock box on our front porch. I think it's ready, except the for sale sign in the front yard.

Now the main task is keeping it clean while having 3 little ones trying to destroy it all day long and then having my big kids mess it up in the evenings. This morning Halle wanted Frosted Mini Wheats for breakfast. I jumped in the shower and got ready while she ate. Then Amy dropped off the boys. I went in the living room and there it was...frosted mini wheats and milk ALL OVER THE COUCH AND FLOOR! Our couches need to be thrown out. Anyone want to buy me new ones? I'm not joking when I say Halle is going to be the death of me. I think I need to send her away until our house sells.

While I have been busy at home, Aaron is on wards for 2 weeks. Which means he has to but aside his nice Chief hours and be an attending over a hospital ward. Since Saturday he has worked 63 hours...that's assuming he gets home at 6 tonight, which probably won't happen (last night it was 8, both Sat. and Sun. it was after 11). Too many sick kids!

We have started working on finding a house in Cincinnati. We have Ardene (Aaron's cousin who lives there) doing drive-bys on houses we find on Craig's List. It's nice to have her there. She has been a great source of information. It will be really fun to have some type of family close by.
