Changes

Life can be so crazy. Doesn't it seem like everything happens all at once? We have been casually looking for a place to live since our BOB stroller got stolen. We have been wanting to find something bigger for awhile now, but just haven't been motivated to look. Well, on Tuesday we went to see a house. Our hopes are never high anymore, just seems like there isn't anything to get excited about...until we saw this quaint, old house, with the biggest backyard. The yard is so HUGE, it is like a park back there. As soon as we saw the yard, we were sold. The house itself isn't too big, but it is being redone inside, brand new kitchen and windows. There is a washer/dryer and a funky basement. We loved it, Kekoa loved it, and we kept our fingers crossed that the landlord would pick us to rent. And he did!! He actually called us the same night to tell us that we were the perfect fit, just what he was looking for. This means we are moving!! Yay, we found a house, yay us!
I have been dreaming about having a garden again, for so long now. I remember telling Scott our goal was to find a place so we could have a garden for the summer...and we did. I'm hoping we can also have some chickens. It is such a liberating feeling to be moving into a house...I can't quite describe it.

The other exciting news is that Kekoa got into the preschool we really wanted him to go to. It is an outdoor school and we fell in love with it during their open house. It is just what we want right now, one day a week and a parent co-op school, which means we go with him to class. The only bummer thing right now is that he is not in the class with his buddy Gavin, who is in the Friday class. We are keeping our fingers crossed that the boys can be in a class together, but we are still super excited.

Another piece of exciting news is that I may be able to teach Pilates locally. I have been driving over to Santa Cruz to work, which is a haul for me. I love the studio there, but it would be nice to work a little bit closer too. It is crazy because I started the week off thinking I was going to get a paid position, teaching Pilates mat classes at the local gym. This didn't pan out but now I may get to teach private sessions at the local studio...even better!

They say things happen in 3's right? All I know is that all this excitement is giving me insomnia! I wake up in the night and can't get back to sleep. This morning I woke at 4:30a.m. and laid in bed for about an hour before getting up to make chili!
