August, Part IV

. . VIDEO BREAK! – Click here to watch a video of Ian helping Mommy with the garden. . . These are also taken by Barb… these were really just to give Grampa Ray a head’s up on how the house is set-up, and yet to simultaneously entertain Ian. That’s a wise Grandma! August 15th… […]

August, Part III

I believe it was the evening of August 12th, Melissa and I ended up with food poisoning… this compounded with feeling like we weren’t getting anywhere on the unpacking front, so we sent up a flare for Grandma Barb to fly up and help us out, and she did. (Thank you!) Every picture in this […]

August, Part II

August 5th, I took this one of Ian in the sunroom, quietly (well, sometimes quietly) making up adventures. See this image larger. August 6th, I believe this was the day Grandma Sue went home, but not without sharing a tender moment with her grandkids! See this image larger. . . VIDEO BREAK – Here’s a […]

August, Part I

Why hello there, August! Continuing our “Catch Up” series, here’s how August played out! August 1st, I can’t remember (at this moment) precisely when 224 Arbor started to feel like home. It still doesn’t completely feel that way, it is a feeling that has to grow on you. At this point I was worried we […]

July, Part V

July 29th, and it was almost time to leave 139 Highlander. Grandma Sue, Grandma Marcia and Grampa Dave worked together to help us make a truly impossible move possible. I thank them all from the bottom of my heart. A move can be a very stressful time, and Melissa and I were still reeling from […]

July, Part IV

July 17th, the Pods showed up this day… I mostly took this picture to track the numbers in the corner in case they were lost. You see, the company picks them up and plops them in a warehouse full of Pods. The idea of losing our stuff in a warehouse somewhere concerned me. See this […]

July, Part III

July 12th, Ian and I discover that the track he got for Christmas a long time ago can actually become cool hats. So. We wore them. See this image larger. Unless somebody tells me otherwise, I believe July 12th was Nina’s first solid food… rice cereal! See this image larger. A lot of it ended […]

July, Part II

Just to give you an idea of what’s going on in our heads in early July, we’re a long ways away from being packed up to move, but moving day is looming on the horizon. The stress of not being able to pack enough to make progress starts to get to us, and a deadline […]

July, Part I

Sherman, set the Wayback Machine for July 2010… we’ve got some serious catching up to do, here goes! Every day for the next many days, a new entry! They’re lined up in the queue, enjoy! On July 2nd we had 224 Arbor inspected, here’s Melissa writing something down on a piece of paper like “OhMyGawdWeLuvUrHouse.” […]

End of June

A lot of things happened all at once around the end of June and throughout July. I’m going to cover them lightly here, as I sort of dipped into that time period throughout other entries. June 16th, Ian high-tails it away from home. I can’t tell who took this picture, it was probably Grandma Barb, […]
