Moving Day!

Well, a week ago today, James and I discussed maybe moving, I had looked into a few places, and found one I really liked, so we decided to post our apartment as for sale, and 20 minutes later I found someone to buy it (well needless to say it didn't work out, long story)  But we decided to move, the next day.  So we did, in a matter of 3 days we had decided to move, and actually moved.  Most stressful week of my life!  James didn't have work off, so I relied a lot on my mom, and James family when they could come, and I did most of it by myself.  It was intense.  And really hot.  But it worked out!  We are here, and I love it!  Now we have to find someone to live in our old place, because the girl who wanted it wasn't approved for the Resident Manager position.  So we are still looking, but I am sure it'll work out!
I just have to tell you about our new place, bigger kitchen, dishwasher, disposal, big living room, baby room that is far enough away we can talk above a whisper and not wake him, bigger bedroom, bigger bathroom, and above all else, it costs less! Yes, less than the 485 we were paying at the other apartment :)  I feel pretty proud of myself.
Thomas is so amazing! He is growing like crazy, he is always trying to figure out how to do stuff, he is so smart, he watches James and I do something once, and then he can do it.  He knows how to work our TV remote, he understands how to put his toys together and take the back apart, he loves to put toys inside of something and then take them out.  He knows where things go, and puts them away, he will actually take his toys out of their basket, so he can put them back.  He loves his toys that make sounds and have buttons, he pushes them when they light up, and it's adorable.  He said Hi today, I was so excited!  He calls out for his dad, and chases me around the apartment, I love it!  His new favorite thing is to cuddle, with everything, pillows, blankets, stuffed animals, dirty or clean clothes, me, James, the floor, James's bike helmet, everything! He loves to cuddle.  He is getting close to walking, I know I say that all the time, but he is!  He takes a few steps, and then just stops.  He also understand what toy is what, I will ask him to get something, like his bear, and he looks at all of his toys, and grabs the bear and hugs it, and shows it to me.  He loves to show us what he finds, he offers it to us, and then wants it back to examine it.  He plays with my phone, but doesn't chew on it! I love it! My phone is safe!  I taught him "not in your mouth" and now he won't do it.  He also knows what he isn't supposed to do, and shakes his head no before or while doing it, I love it!  He eats everything now, he loves chicken nuggets, he takes little bites, and it's adorable.  He also loves muffins, and makes hardly any mess (no more than I do),  I so proud of my clean little boy!
I am planning an epic birthday party, I am so stoked, but I am also extremely sad that my baby is almost a toddler, and not a baby.  I can't handle how quickly he's growing, he looks like a toddler, and not a baby, and I laugh and cry at the same time all day long. It's very tiring. But the party will rock! Awesome cakes, fun decorations, all made by me, and super yummy food!  It's gonna be big (and yes that was me quoting the creepy women from Hercules talking about indoor plumbing)
Anyway, my kid is the cutest, my husband is the most amazing, and I am very lucky!
