Talented Family!
Wow! What a great picture Taylor! I can't wait to see some of you artwork in person! I know this is a random thought but if we lived back in earlier times we could set up an entire village with just the Stinchfield's because there are so many different talents and skills that we would have everything covered! Our village would definately thrive! You are all simply amazing! We even have our own resident Frankenstien... Tom got the cast off his hand and now just simply has a small ace bandage wrapped around his pinky to keep it covered. He can wash it with soap and put neosporin on it and such. But, I will have to post a picture because it is really freaky looking because he has long jagged scars down both sides and 4 pins sticking out of it! He is happy to have the bulky cast off though. Right now they are waiting for the bone to heal, unfortunately some of the bone was completely shattered so when they put the other pieces back together it left a big whole in the x-ray. (The thing that amazes me is that he has never done this before because he is the king of diving for balls...) Anyway, the doctor is still hopeful it will only be another 3 weeks or so. Tom is hopefull too because he misses softball and is really bored at the clinic despite his efforts to stay really busy. Today he was hoping he could get an XL glove over his hand to give him more options. We'll see...
So for the moving plans, we enjoyed using ABF and for us it was substantially cheaper but we only needed like 9 feet of truck. You pack everything so high that it doesn't take up much space (plus we don't have very much.) I think our total cost with tax, ramp rental, etc. was close to $1300. U-Haul without the gas and toll roads and such was quoting us near $1500 if I remember right. But again, I am sure things change. Some friends of ours just moved last weekend and they used ABF but I don't know what they paid. Good luck with all of that! One thing I do remember about ABF is that sometimes it depended on when I got the quote. I would get a really low quote one day and I higher one the next. Eventually it went back down but never to as low as that first quote I got... weird.
We are going to the Indians vs. A's game tonight and again tomorrow. Tom is torn about who to cheer for, but Hayden and I are definate Indians fans. Tomorrow night is Travis Haffner Bobblehead night, he's Hayden's favorite so we're excited. Another of Hayden's favorites is Star Wars. We just got him the Darth Vader mask and light saber at Costco, he loves them! I'll have to take a picture of that too, it's pretty funny. He walk around saying "Luke, I am your father!" and "You don't know the power of the Dark side!" Funny kid.
I am starting to feel a whole lot better these days with just intermitten sickness and a lot more energy. If I can just make it two more weeks I will be really happy about feeling better instead of a little bit nervous about it! I am sure things are fine but it's always hard not to worry. Hayden has decided to name the new baby Jack Jack. But sometimes he tells me that baby Jack Jack is in his tummy so I know he doesn't quite get it yet! :) Oh well, there is plenty of time! Well, despite feeling better I still know that I need a nap to make it happily through the Indians game because I was up late last night so I must go while my kids are still sleeping. Talk to you later!
