Austin Bound

I'm sure you've heard that we're moving our little family to Austin, TX (ATX).  And we're pretty excited about it.  However, in order to achieve our ideal lifestyle, there are many sacrifices we are having to make right now.  The most difficult part is that Martin is living in Austin while Amelia and I are living in Houston.  Martin got an incredible job with a new company and had to move right away.  I'm staying behind to finish up at my job and it offers me some time to find employment.  Luckily Austin is only 2.5 hours from Houston and it's easy to go back and forth on the weekends.  We have been enjoying our weekends there taking long walks, going to Barton Springs and being immersed in all things Austin.


Some updates on Amelia - she's walking almost full time now.  Still crawling when it calls for quick transportation.  She has developed a serious attitude (or maybe she's had it all along) and she'll let you know if she disapproves of something.  She also bit another friend at daycare last week - same boy twice!  The teacher told me that Amelia doesn't like anyone in her space!  What do they say about the apple not falling far from the tree?  I'll leave it at that.  Our little girl is growing up and it's so amazing to see.  We laugh constantly at little things she does or cute faces she makes.  We are so blessed.  



Here are some cute videos.  Mute the player at the bottom to get the full audio effect.  Or you can always go to our YouTube page - link on the right.
