life is never boring...

Well, life at the Abernathy's hasn't been boring! We now have boxes all over the house. I considered posting a picture of our living room, but I decided that would be pretty depressing for me. Just take my word for it; it's a mess. Olivia, on the other hand, has enjoyed the boxes. She drags them around the house and puts her toys in the empty ones. We are currently packing an average of 2 boxes a day. Maybe I should up that count a little... I don't want to get overwhelmed the last week we are here. It still doesn't seem real that we are moving - it probably won't hit me until I stand in this house after it is completely empty. Remind me to leave some tissues unpacked; there'll be waterworks!

In addition to packing, we are also dealing with a diaper rash that just won't go away. We are going on 3 weeks now. (Her dr. checked it out last week, but we may end up going back.) It starts to clear up, then it comes back. Now, you know that the best thing for a diaper rash is lots of air. (Do you see were this is going?) So, we have established "bare bottom time" at least three times a day at our house. As you can imagine, this can be, well, hazardous. Maybe not to our health, but definitely to our sanity! Ya'll please pray that Olivia's bottom heals up quickly. Quite frankly, I'm tired of sanitizing the kitchen floor.

And if boxes and diaper rashes didn't constitute enough excitement, we are still waging war with some local ants. Now, I have nothing against ants in general, but these particular ants evidently were never taught any manners. Specifically, the rule about never going into someone else's house unless you're invited. Things are getting better, and we hope to have them completely evicted by the time our renters move in.

So that's what's currently going on at our house! Hope things at your house are a little more tame.
