Winds of change

Road trip ready
I was reading in my baby book that by this time I'll probably have adjusted to "baby time" ...it's like living in slow motion. Everything seems to take longer.

Snoozin'
While our minute-to-minute has slowed down, it seems like our life is currently in fast forward. We moved back to the US in April, from Virginia to Ohio in May, and now from Ohio to South Carolina in August. That's right... we're moving. To South Carolina.

With my brother and his family
Joe's job as a summer program director at Camp Buckeye has concluded with the end of the season, and we're happy to announce that we've been jointly hired as family teachers at Thornwell Home for Children in Clinton, SC. We'll be moving at the end of next week, on August 12th.

Captivated cousins
Our life seems like a whirlwind yet again as we go through another transition. Last week we were driving over 550 miles with a 1 month old (the 10 hour drive took us 12 1/2 hours on the way down and 14 1/2 on the way back up) and visiting with my brother and his family, who stayed with us at the end of the week.

By next Friday night we'll be unloading boxes into a two bedroom apartment. And for the first time in our marriage, or really since either of us went to college, we won't have any future moves in sight. And you know what?

I'm really glad.
