We've had a busy first few days in the new house. On Thursday morning, the boys and I unloaded a few more small items from the moving truck. Then we went to get our pool membership and ran to the grocery store. Then we went to pick Phil up at work. We ran home, finished unloading the large items from the truck, ate lunch, and dropped off the truck. Then we dropped him off at work and went home for naps. After the kids woke up, we went to the pool for the first time. The boys had a lot of fun!
On Friday morning, the boys slept in and I was able to do some more unpacking. After breakfast, we unpacked some toys and then went to the pool again. We got their right when it opened and had the place to ourselves. We got home in time for lunch and then the boys took good naps. When they woke up, we played outside and waited for Grann to arrive. William gave her a tour of the house and we waited for Phil to get home. We grilled dinner and ate out on the patio. Then we went for a walk to explore the trail through the neighborhood. After the boys went to bed, we did a lot of work in the house and got a lot of things unpacked.
On Saturday, we did some playing in the morning and walked to the Farmer's Market. It was very nice - there was a good selection and a lot of vendors selling breakfast items. Then went to run some quick errands. We picked up a few things we needed for the house and then grabbed lunch while we were out. After naps, we took the kids to the pool again. Each day, William got a little braver although he still likes to stay close to the steps. We ordered in dinner and started a fire in the fire pit. Then we started hearing the music from the ice cream truck. Will was so excited (it was his first ice cream truck experience). After the kids went to bed, we continued to work and were able to clear out the garage enough to get both cars in.
On Sunday, we did a few more things around the house and then took Grann to see Phil's office. Then we drove to downtown Kalamazoo to walk around for a bit. In the afternoon, Phil and Will went back to the pool. They also ran to the park near our house to play some basketball. After dinner, we went for a family bike ride. Alex got to ride in the Burley for the first time.
