OMG moving out of state!

hi everyone!
We are moving from southern California to Seattle. Anybody out there with advice on how to make it easy as possible on the little one? He has a great routine, two naps a day, at 9am and around 1pm, sleeps from 8pm-6 or 7am with one feeding, and I don't want to mess it up! But we are also selling our house, and will be traveling to Seattle in a couple weeks to find a place to live... which means traveling around all day with the realtor, sleeping in a hotel, etc, getting kicked out of the house during his afternoon nap for open houses here. He sleeps in his own room/crib or his own room/pack n play at daycare, so he doesn't reeally sleep on the go anymore. He will be just about exactly 6 months when we move, although he was born late and is huuuuge (In size 12 mos) so sometimes acts a bit older. He is almost-EBF, although we sometimes have to supplement with formula when I can't pump enough milk at work.
I'm looking for advice on anything! What about when to introduce solid foods with all this change (he already has his first tooth, tries to grab food from us)? He's in a Merlin sleep suit now, should we transfer him out of it now so if he starts rolling over it doesn't end up happening at the same time as the move? We already talked to our pediatrician and will be postponing his 6 month vaccinations a month or so until we have a new pediatrician up there.
I know he's probably more adaptable than I think and I'm freaking out over nothing, but it's SO GOOD right now I don't want to mess it up!
