Progress

Sorry for the drop in posts here, but the Pandemonium Fam has been creating chaos at a crazy rate and I just haven't had a chance to sit down to try and record it.

Life continues, of course. Anya is growing like a weed and starting to talk in grunts and truncated words. Of course mommy understands her perfectly. She loves to be right in the middle of everything. Paxton is wrapping his three-year old head around the prospect of moving again. It seems like he's taking it a little better than six months ago - mostly just understanding what it means I think. Kenrick and Anthony are doing excellent in school. They are in the middle of soccer and are enjoying that. They should be able to finish out the season before we have to move.

 Last night we stayed in our new house in Monticello for the first time. We pushed to get the closing done as soon as possible and got everything wrapped up on Friday. We won't actually move until the last week of May, but Andrea will be able to do some painting and Dad is coming to put together a garden shed for me so that I have somewhere to store the lawn mower and tractor.  And I have to be in Tucson, AZ for the next two weeks. Lovely timing, huh?

Anyway, we do seem to be making some progress. Things should level out a little bit once we get moved and settled in here. It will be nice to not have to travel between Aurora and Decatur once a week, although I will be back and forth to Arizona a couple of times this summer. We'll probably try to bring the family along for at least one of those trips, so that will help. And Andrea will have a new house to decorate and a new garden to plan and plant. I'll try to keep you posted...
