Crazy Days!

She's 14 weeks old!

Great Grandma Matzke and Elly

So tired that she can't even hold her tounge in.

First day of first grade!

Well, if you don't know it yet, we have made the big move to Illinois. We decided it was time to go and be all together as a family and we wanted it all to happen before Aidan started school.

We made our arrival on Tuesday and Aidan started school today (Thursday), so needless to say things have been absolutely crazy around our house, but everyone is alive and school started without a hitch this morning, so I guess that was all we could ask for!

Elly and Aidan have both adjusted to the move well. The first night we drove for 3 hours and stopped in Madison to stay at a hotel for the night because it had been a really long day with packing the truck and then driving. I was very nervous how Elly would sleep in a hotel, especially since she had napped really well all day and pretty much slept the whole way to Madison. Once I got her settled down though, she fell asleep and slept for seven hours straight! Aidan was actually probably the worse of the 2. The excitement of staying a hotel was just too much for him and it was about midnight before he finally fell asleep.

We are still getting settled in, but I wanted to share some pictures of the kids.
