Stafford.

Still no pictures to post. One, I lost my cord for hooking up my phone to the computer. So I have to find that. And every single time I finish a client order and I think I'm going to be able to start my personal ones, another order comes through! Seriously, I was so excited last Thursday night because I finished everything that I had on my plate and my plan was to blog and edit the kids' pictures over the weekend. I no sooner got the words out of my mouth to James "yay, i'm excited that I'm all caught up. Those wedding album orders will hopefully not come in until after our vacation" that I check my email and have the orders! Blah. And because I'm so, um, compulsive about work orders that I've put it on hold. So you all will be bombarded with photos soon. soon.

We are moved! Our new address is 72 Belladonna Ln. Stafford, VA 22554

We had checked on several townhouses/houses to rent but the process was taking a long time. We ended up renting a townhouse sight unseen over the internet/phone just to get us moved out there. The townhouse is nice. Now that I've gotten it pretty unpacked and organizing it, it is a lot better than I was thinking. All of our stuff in boxes...staring around at the place I was really unsure of where all of our stuff was going to fit! But it is going well. And feels even more organized so far than our last house. Maybe because of my huge closet! lol.

James is really liking his job. It is more organized and he works with some nice people. We just found a few sitters so we will have a date soon. We did have a trial run last week and went to the bank (woo hoo for a date! ha.) and to starbucks. That was really nice to get out even for a short time.

The kids are good. Isadora is walking. She gets going and she clears rooms. She does a lot better if she is holding something for balance. So it is really funny to see her carrying a bucket around the house. :) They love having a pool! With it being so hot here, the water is really warm too. We haven't done too much exploring since we've moved. We probably won't get into a normal routine until after summer because we just nicely moved and are heading back to MI for a trip with James' family. Then I fly back in not even 2 weeks later for a wedding. And my parents are coming down 2 weeks after that! I did find a Trader Joe's, so that made me happy. And we have some very convenient stores/shopping near us. With it being so late in the summer already, I'm not sure if Berlin will be able to go to preschool now. I'm a little bummed. Even if we do enroll her, we are planning on moving in 6 months, so we may not be able to keep her in it anyway. So I'm going to do some searching now that I have the internet! Just got it on Wednesday!

Hmm. I can't think of anything else to write now...so talk soon!
