Call Us Crazy!

Well - the last week has been a bit crazy for the Greens!

First of all - one night - Saela slept for 6.5 hours. Now this may not seem like a long time to some of you - but it was like heaven for us. We are consistently getting 4-5 hours stretches - so we are moving towards sleeping through the night - maybe that is what Santa will bring us for Christmas.

On Wednesday (12/5) we made an offer on a house, on Thursday there was a counter offer, and on Friday (12/7) all of the necessary paperwork was signed to complete the deal. We are closing AND moving on Friday, December 21st. Let's do the math - that is only 11 DAYS from today. Our current home has not been sold - so if anybody is looking for a vacation house in Lansing, Michigan please let me know at your earliest convenience.

We began packing over the weekend. Jax & Jilly cannot quite figure out what is going on with boxes here, there, and everywhere. Jilly, however, did find two bones that have been missing and she is on cloud 9.

We attended two Christmas parties over the weekend thanks to our sitter Margo and Grandma Green watching Saela for us. We also managed to get pictures of Saela and the dogs for our Christmas card. (FYI - the return label on our cards this year will have our new address.) We will spend the next 10 days packing and then move in on 12/21/07. One of our first orders of business will be to put up our Christmas tree - just in time for the holiday.

I will do my best over the next couple of weeks - but there may be a number of days between posts as we get moved and resettled. We hope you are enjoying this joyous season!

Love,
the Greens
