Home Sweet Home

(Get the tune to Green Acres in your head...)

"Dallas, Texas is the place to be....Apartment living is the life for me..."

We started all the paperwork to get ourselves a house...and more importantly, a double vanity...but the inspection came back a little less than wonderful - think Tom Hanks in The Money Pit. Okay, it wasn't that bad - and we probably could have done all of the updates and fixes it needed and still come out ahead in a few years when it's time to move on - but with a four month old now and plans to have another one within a couple of years, we just didn't think it was the right time to take on a "project" house.

So we're back to hauling everything up and down the stairs in our townhouse for now. Which is fine...although Millie would argue that's since she's still without a backyard it is not fine...but she'll live and so will we.

We are getting more familiar with our new town and I am getting involved in more and more things with Camden. Granna Jane is coming for a visit the middle of August and we have lots of trips planned for between now and the end of the year (home in early September, Boston at the end of that month, home again in October, Omaha in November and home again for the holidays in December) so we should have plenty to do to keep us busy. I don't know if I should call myself a "stay at home mom" if I don't actually stay at home very often. =)

We just wanted to let you know that our address won't be changing again anytime soon. We miss you all and hope that we'll be able to see you during one of our many upcoming trips!!!
