What is it like to move an entire family across the United States while going to school, running a business and fixing up a real fixer upper?

Three girls, three firsts, three down + 1.
I was in the girls' room holding Georgie over my shoulder and waiting for all three children to fall asleep. I was hoping perhaps to give Noelle a rest, too. Georgie looked over at Katie and said, "Nigh-nigh-Kay-kay". Georgie waved without my help. Katie smiled and waved back. Then Georgie looked at Reagan and said, "Nigh-nigh-Da-da", also waving. Katie laughed, Reagan ignored her, Georgie was proud. Then Georgie looked at me and waved, "Nigh-nigh-Ma-ma-da-da". I smiled. Later, she fell asleep letting me hold her Like a baby instead of the usual over my shoulder requirement. Like a baby is preferable from my back's standpoint; I think she looses a few pounds when not over the shoulder. She even helped me sing her to sleep. Now for the first time in a while, I have four sleeping girls. Happy, happy.
