The Weather Turns

After a couple very beautiful fall days, we are back to rain. So no more stroller rides for us for a little while. This weekend we get the keys to our apartment in Batesville. Yes, we will now have an apartment in one town for the weekdays and a large house in Indianapolis for the weekends (doesn't make the most sense... but its going to work for us). Our new apartment is actually pretty nice. Its only about 2 miles from work, a block from the supermarket, and close to everything else. Kim will be starting back to work on November 13th, Lily starts at the babysitter on November 16th. It will be a big adjustment for us, but with an apartment so close to work, my commute will be cut by about 2.5 hours each day. More time to spend with my darling daughter.

In other news... We found out recently that our home was selected to be the 2011 Indy Show House (a charity that supports the Wishard hospital system here in Indianapolis). It means that we will have to take our house off the market and not sell it until then, but... the upside is hopefully we will be able to sell the house for more once the decorators get through with all their changes. It will be very exciting for us to see our home go through a full face lift (landscaping, interior, exterior... basically everything). You can see what the Show House is about at the following link.

This weekend Lily will have a couple more first:
1. Her first trip to Costco (aka Comcast)
2. Her first trip to the Outlet Mall (so Mommy can finish her Christmas shopping hopefully)
3. Her first Halloween outfit

We'll take some pictures and post more after the weekend.
