So a lot of change in the Darrington household this next month. First of all, we bought a single family home about 4 miles from here and we are so excited to move in the beginning of December! But before that adventure comes the adventure of trying to sell our townhouse which means keeping it clean. This has proven to be a little tricky the past 2 weeks as I need to have everything ready to "show" all the time and especially if I ever leave the house b/c someone can call at any second on their way. This is hard enough with two active boys, made a little harder by an ever growing little girl. Scrubbing and painting walls, doors and baseboards in addition to packing, organizing and cleaning is not exactly how I envisioned myself with 5 weeks to go (in theory).
So in addition to packing, cleaning and selling this place, moving into the other home in a little over 2 weeks, having a baby a couple weeks after that (again in theory), my little brother has decided to get married to a wonderful lady on December 29th, 5 days after my due date.
Needless to say, a lot going on which makes this an exciting/stressful time.
Oh, one more thing, Carter changes schools as well. He starts tomorrow but we've already met his new teacher on Friday and he knows 2 kids in his class which hopefully will make for an easier adjustment. We figure, new school first while still in the old house, then new house, then new sibling. A month or so is enough time for all those new things right? Hmmmmm.....
Still no baby name picked out, although Carter likes Sal-a-lean-uh. That's how it's pronounced anyways. His other top favs include, honey, sweetie or love. Bryce wants to name her "baby sister."
We'll keep you posted, but for now, that's the Darrington news!

THAT. IS. GORGEOUS.
It will suit us just fine as a vacation home....thanks for keeping our taste in mind!! ;)
Whoa!! That is a lot of change! Congrats on your new house - it looks beautiful and good luck selling your town house. I'm sure it's impossible to clean, pack, move, unpack when you're 9 months pregnant! Matt moved up his wedding date, huh? Is he getting married in Maryland so you can go? Oh, and I vote for "baby sister" as a name. :)
Pretty Home. I love East Coast style. Doesn't fit so much here in Vegas. You look amazing 8 months pregnant. Good luck with all the changes. We should be moving in a couple weeks too. #3 new school for the kiddo's this year!
yeaaa for the house! i am excited for you! although i am not excited you have to do all that work right before baby girl is born. that is going to be crazy!
Cute house! I hope you survive the next few weeks. I can't wait to see baby and I hope you go with Carter's name choices! :)
