And so it begins...

Up until this week the move to Cali has seemed so far away.  And because we haven't found a house in LA, it felt like the move was just something we've been talking about but never felt real...until now!  This week three things happened that made it finally sink in that this is actually happening...

1. We booked our ONE-WAY tickets to Los Angeles for August 21!  Since I can't fly after 34 weeks, we have to go now, despite not having a house to lease.  So we'll be staying at Casa Martinez....AKA: mom's house.  I think we've just accepted the situation as it is, but pressing the "purchase ticket" button still took me a minute.  There's no turning back now.
2. We shipped my car! I know it's strange but I love my car!  That tank has been with me for 6 years...it protected me through 3 car accidents, taken Christian and me all over the Southeast and safely brought home my baby boy.  I know I'll see it in 9 days, but it was so sad to see it go on the truck.
3. We started packing!  The moving company is actually going to do most of the packing, but we have to get everything ready and clean out all the closets and drawers.  Just starting the process made me sad.

Now I can't believe it's all finally happening. The next 9 days are going to be crazy.  (I can't believe I only have 9 days left!!) I have so many thoughts, feelings and emotions so I will probably be blogging a lot this next week.  Tune in for all the latest move and baby news.  Here we go...
