Jen and I have come to accept the fact that the big decisions in life, the ones that lead to the most significant changes, will often happen suddenly, and quite out of the blue. We're moving. Not very far thank goodness. We'll still be in the same town (the same neighborhood even) but still: we're moving. The new house has a lot of great things that we don't have currently. An extra bathroom, one more bedroom, a larger basement, a great front porch, pocket doors(!) a bigger yard and a tiny (somewhat decrepit) detached garage are just a few of the highlights. It's a great house, though as you can see in the pictures it is a little rough around the edges. With a lot of elbow grease and a long-term vision it's basically our dream house.

Number five
Aiden turned five this week! As far as I'm concerned he looked like this, like, two weeks ago. But no, apparently we've been doing this parenting thing for five whole years now. And Aiden, for his part, has spent the last five years turning into a fun, silly, curious and loving little boy.
As is typical 'round these parts his birthday celebration was a mulit-day, multi- venue affair. A few days before the actual day we gathered all the family to the house for some serious (mustache themed) gift opening and cake eating. A few days after that, Aiden invited a couple of his preschool buddies to the bowling alley for a bowling birthday bash. It was a special couple of days for a very special boy.
