Hello family and friends! We have had a lot going on in our lives lately! First of all we FINALLY got into our new house...we had several "hiccups" as they were called and it left the four of us living in the efficency apartment that Sean got at the begining of this journey for 3 weeks instead of the 10 days we thought originally...but we finally got in to sign papers on August 3rd!
Emily had had a lot of changes in her little life too! She turned ONE on August 2nd, we had dinner out at a local burger joint, Joe Willy's, and celebrated with Grandpa and Mandy and her friend Melissa! Pictures of the birthday to follow! She now has 4 teeth and working on getting some more! The biggest thing that has changed for her is that she learned how to walk!! For about 2 weeks now she has been a walker and she just keeps getting better and better! She doesn't even try to crawl any more! Next thing will be to learn to walk with shoes...we will see how she likes having shoes on her feet!
Caitlin hasn't had as much as Emily going on but she is enjoying staying home with us. It's nice to be able to spend some more time with her! We have a season pass to the Dallas Zoo, which she loves! And now that it's getting cooler we will go more frequently! She is in love with her new room: it's pink (and I mean it's PINK!!) with brown polka-dots. We have a swim park in our subdivision and she loves to go "swimming" and is learning a lot about being in the water! Hopefully we can get her some swimming lessons soon!
This is our new house! We now have a guest room...so come visit us! We are very happy with the house and the neighborhood! We have two kids parks within a block from the house and the swim park s up the street about 2 miles but it's very nice too! We live on a golf course, which neither of us plays golf, but it makes for some pretty scenery.
Sean likes his new job and will be training for a while longer. We are trying to find out what there is to do here, which we are learning is a lot! We are trying to get things settled down at the house so we can get out and make some new friends! There are still a lot of boxes that need to be unpacked but that will happen in time! Maybe this time next year there will be no boxes, haha!
