Pennsylvania, Grandma visit

Layla's first airplane ride! She came with us to Pennsylvania to look at houses. She slept the whole way there and the whole time we were looking at houses that first day. She was a great travel buddy. My mom was able to stay with Andrew and Evie for 4 days while we went and looked at houses. They got so spoiled! We looked at a bunch of houses and townhomes. We found some good houses but they were just too far away and the closer ones were way too old. There was not much for sale in our price range there; it is an expensive place to live! So we settled on an awesome townhouse with a little backyard right in the neighborhood with other resident doctors so it will be great! It has huge walk in closets, nice bathrooms, 2 car garage and a huge living space downstairs. It will be perfect for us. It was cold and snowy while we were there so we got a taste of winter. Brandon about froze to death, haha, it is going to be a big change when we move. Hershey is a very beautiful area though. It is old and has lots of cool old buildings and houses. It also has a lot of things to do. Andrew will love the amusement park and roller coasters. They have a chocolate world that is pretty amazing too. It will be fun to try small town living for a while. We went to the ward on Sunday and there are lots of women in my same situation and lots of kids everywhere. Hopefully we can make some great friends there. I am excited and a little nervous to start our next adventure there. We went to dinner at one of the resident's houses on Sunday and got to talk with them about living there. His wife said the first year is just brutal so we are in for a tough rest of the year once we start. I am a little scared but I will just have to make really good friends with the ladies there and toughen up a little. Brandon has had lot of time off lately and will have a few more weeks off before we move so it has been really nice to get to spend lot of time together. We are going to try to do Disneyworld before we leave Florida and the kids don't get to see daddy anymore for a year. 


 Took everybody to the beach. All our kids got to have baby beach pictures. Layla did not like getting put in the ocean though, haha, but she did like the breeze and the sunshine.





 We celebrated Grandma's birthday a little early. The kids love blowing out candles. They get so excited for birthdays!



 Layla loves her bouncer. She is getting much more alert and loves to sit and look around.

Made a race car ramp the kids had fun with

Evie likes Monkey Joes now. She can do a lot of it by herself now.

  1. Wow! It seems that your kids really enjoyed visiting their grandma. Celebrating her birthday in advance seems to be a really good idea. The kids look so happy with their granny. Your photos in the beach and in the park are all so full of love. In any way, thanks for sharing those wonder family moments! All the best!
