Oh my boy, my boy, my boy, my boy… He’s so pleasant and such a good, smart baby. I can’t even put down in words how splendid this baby is. Every moment that he’s awake, he seems to smile. He eats well, he plays well, he’s reached all the milestones well…he’s just a great baby! So, he doesn’t like the infant seat that much? So what? He’s getting better at riding and once we get him a big boy carseat, I think he’ll be muuuuuuuuuch better at it! He better b/c we have to drive to get places in GA. /lol

Half a year’s already gone by. I can’t believe it. Here’s to another happy half a year!!

We love you, Dazers!

I can talk about it on my blog.

So, we’re moving back to Georgia. A fresh new start, in a new place, with a new house, along with a new baby, and neoteric experiences to be had with old friends as well as new!

Sure there is contemplative sadness since we are leaving family and friends again, but there is also cognitive happiness that we are doing something that is right for our family, our family of six.

This year so far has been filled with so much: Happiness. Sadness. Betrayal. Forgiveness. Faith. Lonliness. Dispair. Integrity. Compassion. Loyalty. Pleasure. It’s amazing the amount of emotions that you can endure in half a year’s time. And, while I am positive that I will shed tears for leaving Buffalo behind, I am confident that my emotions will flow like a river and they will lead me where I need to be. Life is a river, you go where it takes you…in every and all directions!

HOME OWNERSHIP!!!! I can’t wait to have a house that belongs to me again. Closing is set for this Friday and we’ll move in the last week of July.

We are moving back to Geogria; one town over from where we lived in 2004-2006!

Michael went down last week and found a house. It was a hell of a search but at the last minute found these moderately priced houses. We got a BRAND-SPANKIN-NEW house!

This next month is going to be crazy-busy with packing and such. We’re going to get the moving truck and load it, then he’s going to drive our truck down with Livey, Benny and our dogs, while I fly with Davey. Then he’s going to jump seat back up to Buffalo, get the moving truck and Mikey to drive down, the next day. Then we get to unload.

Told ya, crazy-busy!! At least I get to fly down with Davey and not try him out on a fifteen hour ride…just yet!! We’ll be visiting NY regularly but probably not until late fall or next spring. By then I’m hoping Davey’s a better traveller b/c right now he hates to ride in the truck.

We had two houses to choose from but ultimately went with the house that was a tad bit smaller because of the yard. Our house is on a cud-de-sac and has a really nice yard. I forsee us having a big birthday party for Benny, outside, this year! We’re also a short drive from the foothills of the Appalachian mountains.

My parents took the news as well as can be expected. They’re sad, of course, and we’ll be sad leaving them but this step is just another step that brings up higher and higher up the ladder. It’s all about choices. The choices you make really do determine the quality of your life. While things like being away from family and loved ones is hard, [you] do what’s best for [you].

I think we’ll be southerners for a good long while. It’s ok. I rather like the south and all it has to offer.
