Check, check.. Hello, is this thing on!

After a few months of skipping around from hotel room to airbnb rental to hotel room, we are settling into our new home. And, it is our home. Ted and I are officially home owners to a perfect for us bungalow with modern touches. The hunt for a house was brutal, but we are so happy to be home. Wells is still shopping around and points to houses all the time asking if we can buy them. It hasn't completely sunk in completely yet.

With or without monthly updates both kids are continuing to grow, learn, and surprise us daily. They have transitioned from island life to living in the pacific northwest pretty seamlessly.

Wells has grown a few inches, or more. He think, says, and prays the most adorable things. He is home with me for now and our days are filled with so much exploring and playing. He still loves to cook. My mom visited a few days after your birthday last month and Wells baked and iced her a cake all by himself with my direction. He is always scooting a chair to help cook and enthusiast about cleaning.

Poppy has grown into a little toddler girl. She is warm with love with a hint of sass. Pops started walking a few months ago and now is learning new words all the time. She loves all animals and anytime we see a one all she wants to do is touch and cuddle them.

Ted has transitioned to his new job and commuting on the train into downtown Seattle. He shaved his mustache. He currently is framing our new downstairs apartment window and putting up new drywall. We plan to post the downstairs apartment to Airbnb when this project is finished.

As for me, I am swinging right into the colder temperatures with lots of layering. I'm on high of nesting and happily selling old items and purchasing new items for our home. And, I turn 30 in just a little over a week. Gah, life is good.
