Packing...

We have been busy packing around here!  When we found out we were going to be moving, Garet got really motivated and packed a LOT of the house!  Now that we a date to move, we are all super motivated to pack!  Colin is a big help!  Yesterday, I watched him collect things.  He was pushing around this toy:

And I got a closer look at what all was in that little compartment:

2 cars, 1 cell phone, 1 sharpie, 1 pen, and a lego.
Colin has enjoyed balling up newspaper and throwing it in the boxes.  And when we are writing on the boxes with the sharpie (the one in the compartment), Colin is busy "writing" with the pen (the one in the compartment).

Garet also cleaned out his company car.  The whole time, Colin was watching at the door: 

I don't want to be overly confident, but I feel like we have almost everything packed up!  Minus the things we will need the remainder of this week.  Colin even got in a box!

What a sweet boy!  We have boxes at every turn in this house.  And Colin's room looks so bare - nothing on the walls, I took down the shelves, half his books are gone... and it really hasn't fazed him.  Every once in a while he will point to where a picture had been in his room, like he is wondering where it went.  But he is just as happy as ever =)

After a hard days work of packing, it is good to take a nice long bath...

Check out how long his hair is!!!  You would never know because it is so curly! 
Love him so much!
