We have settled into our new abode and so far so good! The move went really smoothly, minus sleeping on an air mattress for about 4 too many nights! But all in all it couldn't have been better! The movers did a great job and nothing got lost/stolen/broken in the process, except the thing that makes our microwave plate spin. We have no idea where that went. I really like our house thus far, minus a few minor problems with it that have since been remedied. We learned that for some reason, none of our bathrooms had toilet paper roll holders. And only 1 bathroom had a working towel rack. But the property managers got that fixed yesterday along with a minor plumbing problem. So we are all good now! Yay! Tegan has settled in nicely as well..she is enjoying her new room, which is upstairs along with the office/extra bedroom, and full bath. Downstairs is the master bedroom suite, laundry room and half bath, kitchen, dining room and living room. The garage is only being used for storage right now. I suppose we'll eventually move a car into it. I don't know. We only have 3 boxes left to unpack, which just contain books and since we no longer have a pantry we had to use our only bookshelf as a pantry. Charles starts work tomorrow so it will be me and Tegan's first day alone in the new place. I suppose we'll manage! Let's see what else has been going on...
We met a few neighbors that were having a yard sale. Don't know much about them, but we at least shook hands with them. Most of the town is military (duh) and there really isn't anything here as I said before. In our lovely backyard, we have a new pet! A little brown bunny named Herman. I feed him squash that he doesn't eat. Me, Charles and Tegan went to "the mall" yesterday just to walk around. It's pretty small, but it's better than nothing. We are learning our way around pretty well, and considering there isn't much to learn I think we'll manage. There are, literally, 11,000 strip bars, 638 regular bars, 907 fast food restaurants, 4 billion tattoo parlors, countless chinese/korean/japanese take-outs, and 97 1/2 billion barbershops. That's it. You have now been given a tour of Clarksville, TN. Be jealous.
Little Miss Tegan started eating solids this week!! And boy can she eat...but what's new right? She's been chomping away on some rice cereal and so far it seems to be agreeing with her! I'm posting pics below since I don't have much more to update...
Numm nummm nummmmm...FOOOD!

Trying to be cool like Daddy!



Definitely suspicious behavior...going to have to keep a close eye on this one...

Our backyard...where Herman lives.

And my absolute favorite picture of Tegan thus far...
(this is what she does during naptime)

Love the pics of my baby, she is growing up tooooo fast. The house looks great, I'm glad you are settled. Hope Kevin and I will be there soon to see you. Love, Mom
I will be making a trip to see you next weekend! I agree that the new picture of Tegan in her bed is my favorite so far! Funny she didn't laugh at all when I tried to put her to bed! She did laugh when I would go to check on her! Can't wait to see you and the new house!
I didn't realize you went to Clarksville! I was thinking it was going to be Kentucky somewhere. Steve and the girls will be in Clarksville in a couple of weeks for Emery's regional soccer tournament. I wasn't planning on going (got some important "nesting" to do), but now I'm tempted so I could come visit you! :-)
Hey you have grass in your yard! That's great, and a bunny!!! I wish you lots of luck settling in, and least you have this sort of major distraction from boredom... TEAGAN!!!!
Take care Locketts!!
Hi Kleeker! I hope you will enjoy your time in KY. Funny story...I work with a very conservative lady from Kentucky. When I went to NY, I brought her an I "HEART" NY T-shirt. She later went to Steve&Barry's and found another shirt she wanted. She proudly wore her "I HEART KY" shirt everywhere!!! It wasn't until about 6 months later that her college-age nephew told her what it really meant!!! HAHAHA. Maybe we can find you one too!
"HEart" you! E.
Your child...is precious! Maybe she can have a little phone conversation with Sam and tell him about the joys of napping in the crib. He prefers the swing. Love the cereal pic! We are having a blast with food! Hope everything is going well. Tegan is seriously a DOLL.
