Here are a few of Eli livin' it up in our temporary quarters, the RV. We were there 2 months, which is longer than we anticipated but it did go by rather quickly.
Eli had never really been around steps too much and was intimidated but very curious about the two steps up to the bedroom of the RV. By the time we left though, he was a pro and played on them continually without needing supervision.
After one week in our new school, Eli was hit by a new round of germs and the doctor diagnosed him with bronchitis and conjunctivitis. So here went another series of breathing treatments, antibiotics, cough syrup and eye drops. This was our first time with the in-mouth nebulizer attachment and Eli thought he was big stuff 'treating' himself and took it without a fight!
He's also a very big help with cleaning now! After watching me sweep the kitchen area, he decided he could handle the bedroom/bath area himself. I held the dustpan and surprisingly he did get most of the dust and grass into it. We dumped it in the trash and then he cheered us on with clapping and Eli 'yea's'.
Another hurdle was getting him accustomed to the shower. Eli loves bathtime, but without a bathtub, there really wasn't a choice. The first few nights were a sprint to see how fast we could get him washed and handed out to the other parent before the screams did us in. After that though he adjusted and by the end of our stay, he was sitting on the drain to pool the water in hopes that 'bathtime' would not come to an end!

Glad to hear that you are moved in and starting to get settled! Eli is getting so big, what a handsome boy!
