I'm thinking I need to do 2 trips to move my personal belongings and tying up loose ends. Plus my american family wants to visit my canadian family. I dont want to wait 3 weeks to cross the border.

Can I go back to Canada after I've already crossed the POE and activated my K3 visa? isnt it a multiple entry visa? and I am not applying for AOS right away.

yes, the K-3 is a multiple entry visa so you will be able to return to Canada when you wish to complete whatever work remains for you to do to move to the States.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

i hope someone knows the answer to my next question. Can i activate my K3 visa but still work Mon-Fri for 2 more weeks?

If i get approved this Thursday, either way, i am visitng my hubby this weekend. but, my last day at work is april 24th. Can I activate my visa while I'm still working, out in canada? If i could, maybe i can apply for EAD asap. So by the time I move for good, i have less wait for my EAD to arrive. that would be nice
