Elephants firetrucks and the Easter Bunny

Elephants firetrucks and the Easter Bunny

We officially move out of our house this weekend, but 98% of our stuff is already packed and in a storage unit hundreds of miles away.  Were living with a couch, a little table with a couple of chairs, a mattress on the floor, five plates, four cups, and a play tent.

At first I wondered how wed survive.  But now, Im reconsidering whether or not I need those hundreds of boxes of stuff that I painstakingly packed.  Perhaps the spartan lifestyle could work for us.  Ive contemplated not paying my storage unit bill and hoping I see everything I own end up on an episode of Storage Wars.

And then my toddler wakes up, and Im quickly reminded why we need eighty thousand toys and six couches to climb on.  Packing tape and mom as a human jungle gym gets old really fast.

Anyway, as I walk through the now-empty rooms of my house, I start to get a little sad and a little nostalgic.  So, I looked through some old videos to cheer myself up, and I found some pretty good ones.  I thought Id share a couple because, lets face it, the fact that Im taking time out to blog while my toddler runs in circles in an empty room with a concrete floor means this ones gotta be quick.

Elephant is a really hard word when youre 15 months old. (Last July)
