Her Heart, It Is In Ireland…

We have settled! We have an apartment in an INSANELY cool little place called Emerald Isle in NC. Its probably an hour and a half from Wilmington, but, its an ISLAND, its in NORTH CAROLINA, and we can literally walk out our door and be on the beach in less than a minute.

Its awesome.

Voldemort continues to confuse. Yesterday, after months of nothing but pure baby babble, looked up at his father and clearly said, “Hi, Daddy!” He is loving being able to wander all over an actual apartment, but the child locks have so far managed to keep him out of the fridge and the trash under the sink, which has him plotting evil for breaking them. He is also completely in love with the two globe lights in the kitchen. I call them both “Bodai,” which seems to make him happy.

(And if you got that reference, you get a million points.)

We’re still waiting on final call about brandus’ job – he had to have ETS send them him Praxis scores, so we’re waiting for that. But he’s also been offered 2 other jobs, so this isnt a major deal.

We LOVE where we are living, Brandus is loving that i actual bought him a kayak like i said i would (time from door to getting in at the salt marshes? ONE MINUTE.), and i am THRILLED to be back in the actual South.
