All Moved In!

We have been in our new town and home for 10 days now and are feeling pretty good. For some weird reason, there is a part of me that misses our gross, stinky, and moldy apartment and community. I think it is just the beach and palm trees actually! Starting over and learning a new routine is also a bit crazy and stressful. The house, here, is great and the neighborhood has great amenities. We have yet to use the pool or park, but we will soon! The girls started their new school and I am happy to say they LOVE it! Peyton said it has been so easy to make new friends and she loves the way everyone dresses! YAY! She had to wear a uniform for the last 1 1/2 yrs and during the summer for camp, so she is ready for some cool clothes and shopping. Eliza got into trouble on the second day of school for talking too much. Is anyone surprised by this? She seems to like her teacher anyway and is so excited to have made a friend named Daphne. Eliza thinks she is the coolest because Daphne is her favorite Scooby Doo character. 

Everyone is adjusting much quicker and happier than I expected and I am so relieved. We have had play dates and sleep overs with old friends and I know they are excited about playing with new friends too. Kai is adjusting well too and loves all his new play space. I have been able to organize and unpack while he plays in another room! He has developed a love for cars and trucks and zooms them all along the floor and furniture. He starts preschool on Tuesday, so that should be interesting. I will keep you posted on that.

Here are some pics of the new pad and the girls first day of school.
