Moving Complete

Well, our move is complete. Thanks in a VERY large part to Tony’s Mom, we got our house packed and cleaned.

First thing in the truck!

Filling up quickly now!

My ‘spider-girl’ skills came in handy!

Tony officially checked out of Fort Bragg around 2:00 in the afternoon on Friday and hit the road for Texas.
Tony, the two dogs (in the cab), the moving truck, and the towed car, getting ready to leave.

The drive ended up taking a little longer than he expected, mostly because when towing a vehicle you can only go 55 miles per hour. This put a kink in his “I like to go fast” style. However, he made it safe and sound down to Texas late Saturday night. The dogs did well, alternating sleeping on the extra seat and the floor. They are all now settling into their temporary home at Tony’s parents house.

I too have settled into my temporary home. My good friend Joana has been kind enough to open her home to me while I am continuing the second half of my semester here. I will get to visit Tony in Texas for my spring break, April 1-10. And then my semester is finished May 12th. Tony and I will then drive our other car down to Texas.

Since this is supposed to be a blog about our impending bundle of joy- here’s an update on plus one. I am now nine weeks along. Plus one is about the size of a strawberry.
My next appointment should be between ten and twelve weeks. At this appointment we should be able to hear the heartbeat!

Melanie, Tony, and +1
