I don't technically consider a move complete until the drapes are hung and the pictures placed- but for now we are comfortable and slowly working toward that "sigh" that comes when the last box gets tossed. It was a pretty uneventful move other than the fact I turned 27 while we drove and Justin threw his back out an hour before move-in. He spent a good portion of the day laid out flat on Livi's blow-up toddler bed. She cuddled up to him for a few mintues and she heard me say "Aww, how cute." She then proceeded to tell Daddy: "Stay still until Mommy comes and takes our picture." After hearing that I figured I should. =)
The other picture is of Livi playing a Barbie guitar given to her by her Aunt Christena and cousin Lexi right before we left Ohio. It was one of the only toys not packed so we heard quite a lot of that guitar for quite a while. Still fun to watch her play though!
Justin's first few days at work have gone really well. It's been hard for both of us to get suits ready instead of BDU's every night but he looks great in either so I don't mind. I would have taken a picture of him going off to work in his new suit and new car but I didn't think he would go for posing like a kid on the first day of school. (I'll have to sneak one sometime for you.)
The traffic, will indeed, take a lot of getting used to but our little neighborhood is quiet and sweet and thank you JESUS for the GPS!
We can't wait to find Liv some friends but we are happy to already have some friends here for her (and for us). Leaving my family has never come easy to me and this time is no exception. Please, please, please feel free to make DC a vacation destination and our home your first stop!
