Onward and Upward

Amongst all these boxes….James is “on the move!”

In more ways than one!

His first move and ours, was to our first home!! Back before James was born we began our LONG search for the perfect family home and we finally found it. Our dear friend and agent Lindsey stuck with us and helped us fulfill our dreams in this ranch with plenty of space and a big backyard for the girls.

James now has a new bedroom and new places to explore. And explore he will as he’s also crawling now! I told him he had to wait til we moved to start this and he started the day we moved in! We just made it!

The whole move was crazy and exhausting and we’re thankful to be on this side of things. George and I had the great idea to take a day off of work to make the move so that James would be at school. Well wouldn’t you know James got sick the day before and couldn’t return for 24 hours. There went that plan!! Thankfully George’s mom was able to come and stay with James while the excitement of the move took place.

There are so many things that we are now able to do with James in our new home.

He’s got his own bathroom with a big boy tub! (Read --- Kate and George have their own Master Bath!!!!)

Our dining room is now big enough to set up James’ high chair!

And best of all James has plenty of room to CRAWL!

Homeownership is not all roses and sweet baby milestones though…

It’s also a handyman’s haven!!!

(Bless my husband who fixed our dishwasher just 2 weeks after moving in!) 

We are still settling in and unpacking, but we are loving our new space. We are so grateful for our new place!
