New Beginnings

On May 2, K, Daddy and Mommy officially moved into a single family home in the peninsula. We were excited about the move, but it was also bittersweet. We moved from our condo in SSF which was a 10 minute commute to work, 2 minute access to the freeway and Pak 'n Sav was literally across the street which made grocery shopping pretty convenient. Also the condo was K's first home and where she first came home from the hospital after she was born. Here's a pic of the condo for memory sake. We lived on the second floor.

There are many good things about our new area. One being we are in a good school district and K's elementary school is 5 minutes from our home. There is also a new library that is close by.  K now has a yard that she can play in.  With a little water and fertilizer the grass should be good as new.

We live in a family orientated neighborhood. On our the block, the families of children are under 12 years old. The first time K went on a walk in her stroller, the neighborhood kids swarmed her and gave her a big welcome to the neighborhood greeting.

There are nice trails and paths along the lagoon where K can enjoy the views.

It took a little time for K to adjust to her new surroundings. She immediately noticed the change. For the first few days when we walked into the house, she wanted Mommy to hold her and would not stand on her own, but she was up and about (her active self) after a week. We decorated her nursery with cherry blossoms. She loved it! Here she is admiring her new nursery.

The cherry blossoms took some time to put up since Daddy and Mommy had to stick on each flower, but we are happy with the final product.

Even though we will miss the condo, we will make new memories at our new home! Come visit!
