Moving to Northampton, Massachusetts

This week saw Katerina get out a little more. She has taken car trips of a couple of hours now a couple of times.

Kelly has accepted a new position in Western Massachusetts which means we are moving. It is a great position for us now that we have our little Katerina. Kelly's call schedule will be significantly reduced. Meaning working only 1 out of every 6 weekends rather than working 3 of 6. And, basically 4 week days a month rather than every other weekday every week. Katerina will get to see her Mommy much much more. And I'll get to do more work and bill more hours because of it.

It is also home for us. I grew up about 15 miles from the town Kelly will be working in and Kelly grew up just a little further away from the town. We are looking forward to it. The moving part will suck of course.

So Katerina will became a citizen while we lived in Connecticut but will grow up in Massachusetts just like her parents did. She will also be much closer to all of her grand parents, and her aunts and uncles who reside in the area (one aunt lives in Dallas). With the extra weekends off for Kelly, Katerina will get to see her family more.
