Why didn't anyone tell me that moving with an infant is twice as hard?

I'm still alive, but my stress is at an all time high-it's really hard to eat.  We are supposed to be on the road by now, but the setbacks keep arriving.  We plan on heading out tomorrow evening (Sunday). Full report later. Hope everyone is doing well.

Good luck!! Too bad we never got to do that coffee, but it's been a crazy time for everyone (especially you, I'm sure!). Best wishes for the future...

Good luck, with the move, the journey and your new life once you get there.
Moving is one of the top ten stressful life events, but you know that already, hope it all goes as smoothly as possible.

Moving is stressful at the best of times, and I can imagine the having a young child does not facilitate matters in that respect!

Good luck with it, BBoy. I'm sure all your stress will be richly rewarded.

I can only imagine... Moving is one of my least favorite activities and if I had to do it with a child in tow...hmm... Good luck. Hope to see you back soon.

I feel your pain, we're in the thick of our move right now too (though our babies are old enough to help this time, so I shouldn't really complain).
Good luck!

For some reason major life changes have come around the birth of our children, well I mean changes other than the child. Two of which involved moving. You do adjust to the extra time and stuff involved when you have kids. Go easy on yourself. You can only do what you can do. It will get done!

Moving qualifies as one of lifes biggest hassels!!! It does make one rethink the necessities though and as long as you make it to your new home with baby and loved one intact you are doing well. We moved about six months after the twins were born and I was quite surprised we stayed together. (ha ha)

Our kid was just nine months when we moved. And the contractors hadn't finished with the plaster and electrical work (and wouldn't for months) so she learned how to walk by grabbing on to the unopened boxes we kept moving from room to room.

You do what you can. In my experience, a lot of things are stressful with infants and toddlers. They just require that extra TLC. You'll get through fine, BB. Good luck.

I hope your move has gone well. Moving brings out the ugly monster in me.

I've tagged you in a meme.
