Well, I found a few things I could delete on our hard drive in order to post a few pictures. I think I may be working our hard drive to death though...
We've had some pretty extremes in temperatures over the last few weeks. There was snow that turned to ice overnight. Then it warmed up so much we didn't even need a jacket and now we've got snow again. And this snow doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon. It's so ironic that I've been wishing for snow that would last for like two years and now that it comes I wish it wasn't here! This week the family I babysit for is in Mexico so I had grand plans to tour lots of museums. But with all this snow the metro isn't too appealing so instead I've been staying in. :(
Despite the cold weather we've still been going outside to play.
We met some friends down at the National Building Museum one day. It was great fun!
I got some new lipstick and Charlie
really wanted to try it on as well much to Adam's dismay.
We helped some friends move last weekend and Charlie was hysterical every time I walked away from him so I ended up wearing him for part of the time. At least he evened out the weight, right?
Our most recent snow was deep enough for snow angels. Adam had to move Charlie's arms and legs for him but we think he still makes a cute little angel.
On one of the no jacket days Charlie learned how to go down the slide all by himself. This kid loves the park!
And for those of you who are still reading, here's our big news. We're moving to Utah at the end of the month. We're going to take our time driving and visiting friends along the way so we probably won't be there until mid-April. We haven't been happy with the career opportunities here in DC and rather than rush into a decision we're going to move back to Utah and stay with my mom for a bit while we consider our options. Not paying $1500 a month in rent means we can make decisions on our own terms. :)
We're excited to be back around family and our Utah buddies, but Maryland has come to feel like home so we're very sad to be leaving. And we will greatly miss our lovely Ward and wonderful friends. Sigh. It's always bittersweet...
So if any of you have advice or tips on moving in general or traveling with a toddler and cat please share. We'd also appreciate recommendations for those moving companies similar to ABF who move your stuff for you. Preferably one that doesn't need to be parked at our apartment for more than a few hours.
