I went through the same thing in August last year. Moved from a 1805 sq ft house to 3800 sq ft house. Plus I moved clear across state 585 miles. Best move I ever made and I moved 36 times in my life. 16 since I been married. Little advice is to get a storage unit close to where you are planning on moving to so you don't have the pressure of getting everything out all at once plus you are not having to walk around totes and boxes.
did I mention my move was from a corner to of the street with taxes almost 6000 a year to 31 acres with trees pond and pasture land for 2000 a year. The move was a no brained for me and got my family out of the city and into the country
ahhh the joys of having to never leave the house to do something

Good news everyone we have found a home we are liking alot and have been ok from the bank. Unfortunately we don't get it for 3 weeks after ours sells, but we have enough family and friends around that it isn't a problem. I know many have been asking for new address to send Housewarming gifts. As soon as we get possession of it I will update. Thanks everyone for the support in this endeavor. Jeff
P.S. Yes I have a big room for my babies. Which is what my wife calls JR. and my collection

So, in short, you managed to convince your wife to by a bigger home because you needed more room for your hobby?
Well done sir, well done.
