Our New Home





We are still just beginning to get settled in to our new house. We've gotten the rooms we normally live in (kitchen, living room, master bedroom, nursery) in working order, but the rest is still full of boxes and a mound of pictures that need to go on the walls.

Here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks. Joshua has done great in his new room. Andy's parents came in town the week after the move. Denny, Lee, Andy & Eric went to the UK basketball game, and we enjoyed having them to help watch Joshua so we could get a few things done. Eric & Joni Beth watched him for a little while after lunch on Sunday. He had so much fun with them!

Shannon and George were in town this past weekend, so they, along with Emily and her youngest son, Benjamin, came over on Monday. At first, I think Joshua was a little confused as to why these other boys were playing with his toys, but he quickly joined in. Benjamin and George also tried to give him a stair climbing lesson, but I quickly put a stop to that :). So far, he's not ventured up, and I'm happy to keep it that way...at least for a few more weeks as we try to find the right baby gates.

The best part about our new house...besides location...is the back yard. It has a small fence around it to keep Emma in, and it's flat and fairly large. The deck is much larger than our last one with bench seats all around. It will be great for get togethers, so we look forward to warmer weather. Joshua and I took a venture out last weekend. He wasn't quite sure about the grass, but it was really cute to watch his expressions. Emma, on the other hand, is sure that she loves the backyard!

I talked to some of your new neighbors. I gave raving reviews of your little family to them. I'm sure you'll meet some more of them as the weather gets better. There are a lot of great Copperfield families. I also know some great girls that live in the neighborhood that would be some great babysitters whenever you need some!
