back to life

Things are going so well for us here these days. It's sort of like a flip has switched and the stresses of the past few years are gone or muted at least. We've been having a ton of fun family time- first with the Steiners' visit and now with three weeks of nearly uninterrupted time with John (no trips). This next few weeks will be a bit different- Pi Pound is up with her family for a few weeks and John will be gone quite a bit.

We're still working on settling into our new house but are making regular progress, and the boys have just attained new levels- now Jeff seems like a real toddler and Sam like such a big kid. Here are a few pics of our month-

We had such a great time with the Steiners, as always. We did a few little outings and just hanging out at our place was fun with all the kids together.

What a cute smile!
I love Jeff's expressions
