In a single month we...
I'm going to let some pictures tell this story - because holy cow has the past month been an amazing adventure! :)
- closed on our townhome
- moved out of our rental in Silver Spring
- moved into our townhome in Columbia, MD
- furiously unpacked down to about 5-7 boxes (most of which are off season clothes or non-maternity)...we're talking the basement too...and curtains on windows and frames on walls!
- had electricians drop electrical outlets through the basement and cut holes and install ceiling fans in the girls rooms
- had the girls rooms painted
- wrapped things up at my job enough to head out and officially be on maternity leave
- finished preparing for the arrival of baby #2 and decorated the nursery!
- had a cesarean and delivered a beautiful, healthy baby girl
- left the hospital a day early
- spent a week snuggling with our beautiful sweet snugglebum and bonding with our family of four!

| Last family outing! Finally ditched unpacking and went to the farm for a family outing! (three days before I had Lily!) |
