Hey everybody,
after more or less camping for the past 6 months (minimal furniture, toys, kitchen items, clothes), we now find ourselves surrounded by lots and lots and lots of boxes and dissembled furniture!
In my own words: "Our stuff is back! Is all all done being on boat. Men NOT take away our stuff again. Now find my penguin backpack?" (the penguin backpack has been requested several times every day, until today FINALLY it was found!)
The tally:
227 inventory items shipped from Germany. Includes furniture and boxes. Kitchen and dining room is unpacked. Most of the toys have been unpacked. Most of the big furniture items have been set up. Some are still dissembled, waiting for the missing hardware or parts to show up in a box! (We're confident they will, we've already found missing keys to antiques hiding in tin cans packed with the kitchen stuff, packets of screws and bolts wrapped carefully in towels, etc). All the boxes of clothes are still packed. Unpacking those will be a project for this weekend!
49 inventory items arrived from long-term storage in Spokane. These include such luxuries as a vacuum cleaner and kitchen appliances... toaster, blender, George Forman grill, mixer... and all our wedding gifts and other things we had in Pullman but didn't bring to Germany!
Another project for this weekend will be to heft the little baby items up into the attic. I have my very own Mark-room now, and as soon as my Momma is done refinishing my very own big-boy-bed the pack-n-play will be put away! THANK you to Grampa for painting my room!!!
Once unpacking is done my Momma wants to have a garage sale - we have a lot of duplicates from stuff we stored or bought in Germany, and we have some other things that we just plain don't need.

I'm so impressed that my yound relative has such a clear memory of when his stuff was packed up. I'm not sure I was that aware at two. I guess it's the good genes.
Actually, Katie, my request was chocolate pudding, I have not been able to find it here. I'm looking foreward to seing Mark's pictures and putting them up on my wall.
