We are (almost) all settled.

Yes, I realize it's been a long time since my last post. Huge apologies! This move across the country has been quite the experience. Throw three kids in the mix and you've got a disaster always waiting to happen!

For the most part, we're all settled into our new place on the base. We absolutely love our new home! It is GIANT! The kids are really enjoying all the living space. Our kitchen and living room connect on both sides so walking and driving toy trucks in circles is the main event these days. It's like my own little race track...
Atticus has a play room upstairs too but he would much rather run around in circles than play with his hundreds and hundreds of toys.

We have a great big basement for storage. Which is great. About 60% of our stuff sits in storage most of the year. Actually, to be completely honest, it's mostly baby stuff down there. And there's a little carpeted nook for my desk and bookshelf too.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms and a bathroom. Did I mention that the kitchen and bathroom are BRAND NEW!? Everything still had the stickers on when we moved in. They include new lino floors and new hardwood floors in the rest of the house.

There is a nice big backyard too but we need to get a fence installed. In time.

The location is absolutely fantastic! Especially for the long days of summer. So much stuff to do! We are directly across the street from the community center which is where the preschool is. (Atticus is registered for the fall session.) They have playgroups too. There is a playground in the field that Atticus loves so much already. He calls it the "Blue playground." Cute! And a nice little wading pool. We are minutes away from two other parks and two sandy beaches too. I'm so excited to be here and can't wait for the nice warm weather to start up. It was 20 degrees this afternoon so hopefully the temperature will keep climbing!

I will keep posting over the next week or two with updates on our settling in and with some adventures from the moving process as well as lots of pictures! We're really enjoying it here but are really missing everyone back home!!!
