The computer that we have hooked up to the Internet right now in our TLF has no SD card reader so I can't upload some pictures from the last few weeks. So in a (poor) effort to be creative here is a quick update on our lives in numbers.
1 - the number of houses we are responsible for. We officially checked out of our cottage last week.
3 - the number of us sleeping in one room for the past 7 nights. That equals a lot of lost sleep and some grumpy family members.
4 - number of times I got up to go to the bathroom last night. This is getting old!
9 - the number of crates (almost) all our earthly possessions fit in.
23 - the number of degrees Celsius it is supposed to be tomorrow. That is warm for England standards - break out the shorts! Looking forward to our park playdate tomorrow.
32 - number of weeks I am pregnant. I had a sonogram yesterday and he is still a boy, he is head down and my placenta has moved up! Three very good things. Time needs to slow down though - we are so not ready for him!
750 - the amount of money we lost on our deposit because the exchange rate is so much lower than it was 3 years ago. Anyone know if we can claim that loss on our taxes?
Too many to count - the number of goodbye's I have to say in the next week. Definitely the hardest part about this lifestyle. We know we will see some people again but its especially hard saying goodbye to our British friends.
I'm sure there is more but that is all I can think now. Cheers!

Very creative! Well done Janell! I was thoroughly entertained! Good luck with everything over the next few weeks!

I had tears...it is hard to say good-bye. Give Danni a hug from me.
Sorry about the lack of sleep, that would be hard. Too bad you don't have a walk-in closet for a place for Chase to sleep:)
Miss talking to you...Love, Mom
So creative, Janell! You are definitely my mom-hero--moving so late in pregnancy--both times! Can't wait to hear more about the house.... the move.... the sweet new baby.... and of course, Chase and Brad! :) You better keep blogging when you get to the states! Praying for all of your upcoming transitions!
hey! i was watching the news last night and saw the horrible tornadoes in raleigh. . . is your house there or a suburb? i assume everything is okay with it though?
What a special way to share info w/o pictures! Numbers can be a great thing. We're thankful #2 is getting into a better position, but know it DOES create more bathroom runs @ night! We continue to pray for you as you finish up your last week in England. We miss being able to communicate! Oh yes, one more thing, a few more names that can be verbs - Drew, Taylor, Skip, and Walker. Don't know if that helps any, but I've had fun looking at names! :>)
