Another long week!!

We moved into our new place yesterday and it was a long tiring day--especially for my dear hubby who had to do the second load all by himself. He is such a strong, wonderful man!! We were up late unloading and then this morning we had to have the truck back first thing, so we were up early. We still have the old place for a week, so it will give us some time to do all the cleaning, etc.

We are trying to unpack and get settled and it is now starting to feel a little more like home. We also went on a nice walk around our new neighbourhood and we really, really like it here (plus we are sick of moving)! It is really quiet and peaceful here and of course we are close to the beach and there are tonnes of parks and running trails!

I will post pictures of our new home and area later this week, once we get a little more settled. It has almost been like Christmas time here, unpacking and opening all these boxes of our stuff that we haven't seen in almost four months now. Zech was in his glory with all of his new (well old) toys and the big yard for him to roam around in.

Just thought I would post some pictures that I took a couple of weeks ago. It is the rainy season here and it does get quite chilly, so we have had to put on pants and long sleeves. I have quite a few outfits for Zech that he has never worn and I was afraid he wouldn't get to wear because of the heat, but I was wrong. He has had a chance to wear a few now. So here is a favourite that Grandma H gave him.

He actually let me put his hat on and he kept it on!

He was so mad at me for switching his hat around! This is a good indication of the mood that my little man has been in for a while now--whiney and angry, but I guess I can't blame him with all the transitions and all the teeth! (I love this picture, even though he is so mad, he is so darn cute!)

And now for the speaches. Zech gets into speach mode and he goes on and on and on. Of course we can't understand a word, but the more we agree with him, the more he talks. He is so animated too, he loves to use his hands and his finger. I think he gets this from Grandma H--I remember her talking and using her hands and Dad would imitate her gestures in a exaggerated fashion--it was too funny. I am so glad that I was able to capture these photos of him in speach mode. Usually he gives his best and longest speaches in the car and it is kind of hard to capture those on the camera!
