Busy Month(s)!

We've had a busy month! After a busy trip home for Christmas and house-hunting we made a quick turn-around in Seattle. We spent barely 2 weeks back there before we packed up our car and packed up our things for the drive cross-country to our new home in Wisconsin. We had reasonably good roads and a safe trip, taking about 3.5 days to get all the way to the Lakeshore.

After closing on our new home and then getting our stuff moved in it was soon time to get to some wallpaper removal and painting. 3 weeks later, we've got one room done!!!! Dad was also off for his first work trip too soon after moving in, so Mom and Kyle are busy finishing up the unpacking and learning the ins and outs of the new house. Dad did get out of town just in time to avoid the negative 15-25 degree temperatures!!! Mom & Fred have seen the first birds at the feeder, so it won't be long before we are filling the feeder(s) every day - hopefully!

Kyle has been passing all this time by being very irreglar with his sleep schedule, excessive drooling and sprouting teeth. He's been working on his upper left front tooth, it's been about 25% out for about 2 weeks, so some good progress. He's also been getting up on all fours and standing with a bit of help for balance, but he is doing fantastic. He should be crawling very soon, or he might just start walking, it's tough to call right now.

So we still have quite a bit to do, but that's just fine. We're looking forward to getting things settled down a bit so we could relax and enjoy our new home and maybe even squeeze in a trip up North in the next few weeks.
