Life Abroad / weekend

This Weekend Was

img_9035This weekend we moved! After almost 9 months without our own place, we are finally settled for a bit. It feels so nice to have our own space again!

We spent the weekend bringing stuff from the hotel over to the new apartment, building IKEA furniture, picking up more IKEA furniture, building IKEA furniture… img_9033To be honest, KC built most of the furniture while I attempted to keep P away from the millions of tiny pieces. I did manage to put together our kitchen cart though, complete with tiny helper in my lap. (Right before these photos were taken, P was hanging all over me and I was asking KC to come and take her somewhere away from the chaos. Right as he walked over to grab her, she climbed into my lap and of course I couldn’t hand her over then! Such is motherhood.) img_9034img_9032The best news is that our stuff from the states was delivered on Monday, and we are almost fully moved-in and organized now. I’m hoping that we will be totally done by the end of this weekend, including cleaning. (Because this “semi-furnished” apartment needs a steam clean like woah.) img_9036-1Once the apartment is together and organized (and clean!) I’ll post a tour so you can see our new place. And get excited, because there’s not one but TWO sets of terrifyingly steep stairs. So Dutch!
