So, we were a bit desperate. A few hours after seeing the state of our new house, we realized we were in WAY over our heads. First of all, I am 7 months pregnant. After a weekend of cleaning the new house I started getting much more pronounced pregnancy symptoms. This is not good. The swelling feet will not go down any more. Secondly, we need help to do some of the more "handy" things that need to be done (removing metal shower door in bathroom, installing electrical sockets, etc...). Finally, in between working full time and taking care of Celia we simply can not make much headway into unpacking and the packing had no order (another story). So, we called Stuart and Kathy Swoboda (aka Nanaw and Pawpaw) and all but begged them to come and help us.
Being the wonderful and supporting parents that they are, they came to our aide and took a long weekend in NY. While they were here, they got to go to one of Ben's softball games. Nanaw spent a lot of time walking around with Celia, which gave Mama a much needed break.
