Update

So we are here..... at the in-laws (who are on vacay). So far so good... We did bring E's crib with us, and she did nap in it!!!! Yay.. hopefully tonight goes pretty well too!!!!

Moving...

So we are moving out....

for a few days that is..

A few weeks ago when we had the hurricane our roof leaked... and because following the hurricane were 5 long days of straight rain it didnt get fixed right away. Apparently you cannot send roof repair men onto the roof when it's wet??? I mean come on.. what s the problem :)

So after have a leaked that turned into a a steady stream of water... that soaked the wall, caused some cracks, soaked the carpet.. and kept us up throughout the night emptying buckets of water... we now have a much, much bigger problem..

MOLD

The contractors removed a section of the damaged wall to reveal that all of the moisture had caused mold to grow.. so during the 72 hours of the mold remediation process we cannot reside in our house. Therefore we must move out..

It just so happens that my in laws mansion  house will be empty as they will be on a real vacation, so we are going to be staying there while the work takes place. 

While you thought the mold was the big issue in the post... the real problem resides in the fact that my sweet angel girl does not sleep anywhere but in her crib.... which presents a problem for this temporary loss of use in our own dwelling. 

We are half tempted to just take the crib apart and take it with us... would that be weird? She hates Pack N Plays with a passion.. and has gotten very close at getting out of them...

so herein lies my question.... how do you help your children sleep when they are away from home... I mean this girl will not even nap at my parents house.... we tried staying the night at my in laws {the house we will be staying at} during the hurricane and she didn't go to sleep until 1:30am... after she pretty much passed out from exhaustion.  And......... would you take the crib with you? I should mention we will be there for 4 days.. and E takes (2) two hour naps a day??
