For Squirrel and Erin

It's been requested that we make an update regarding our living situation, so here goes. In late March, we put a bid on a house in a different part of town, one that's newer and a bit more family friendly. Our purchase of this house, however, was contingent upon the sale of our old home.

We put our old house on the market in late March. Within in one week of being on the market, it was sold. We closed on our new house on April 20th. We moved into that house on April 21st, when Michelle was 40 weeks pregnant. We closed on our old house on April 27th. Michelle was still pregnant then.

Our new house is approximately double the size of our old house. It's got three bedrooms, two and a half baths, a first level family room, a formal dining room (which we're using as a toy room and will turn into a sitting room some day), a huge kitchen, a finished basement with rec room, two car garage, a huge backyard, and a small storage shed in the yard. So far, everyone loves the house. There's a place for Luka to play; there's a place for Michelle to cook; there's potential for Chris to have his dream game room; there's a place for Bernard to poop freely.

We don't have any pictures, so we'll have to take a few soon and post them.
