Logan followed on Thursday (Kurt left for a 2 days business trip).
The flu hit me on Friday. (Kurt got home as the kids were going to bed)
Saturday the movers came with all of the contents of our shipping container and Kurt *nearly* tossed his cookies the entire day.
In between feeling like we were going to throw up and bouts with vertigo...we managed to unpack a good portion of our boxes.
Needless to say we didn't make it to church on Sunday. We didn't think any one would want to partake what we'd be bringing. Logan's sweet Primary teacher did email Sunday night to let Logan know he was missed and shared what their lesson was about. And this morning we received emails from our Branch President and his wife making sure everything was ok. Once they found out we'd been sick Sister Nagano offered to bring us dinner, which was really nice. Over the weekend we needed to go shopping for food, but ended up living off leftovers in the fridge and random items from our shipping container (Canned tomato soup, canned chowder, boxed brownies, etc.)
Today we've started to feel better. I'm just lacking energy. I have managed to get the kitchen unpacked (just need to shift around a few things), most of the living/dining room settled (except the pile of boxes and paper to be recycled on Thursday), both bathrooms unpacked, and other random items here and there.
We are waiting for a wardrobe from Craigslist to be delivered this week for the kids room. Their room is probably in the worst shape of all. The excitement of their toys being delivered along with lack of space for clothes has made a huge mess.
The baby's room is pretty much done too. We just need some sort of dresser for our room because half of our clothes are currently in her closet. My biggest problem is that I have to store my regular clothes AND my maternity clothes. I hoping after the baby arrives we can find a way to get the maternity clothes back to the states or maybe find someone here in Japan that could use most of them.
Tomorrow Kurt and I are going to tackle our room. His "office" is currently the staging area filled with all sorts of stuff.
As soon as everything is settled I promise to take more pictures. Maybe even a little video tour. ;)
