We are now officially residents of Livermore! I am super excited to get out and explore this town. So far I can tell you that I love our space (even though it's still a mess of boxes), I love that we're surrounded by rolling hills, I love that there is compost curbside pickup, that I can see the windmills from our street, that our walkways are surrounded by awesome landscaping, that there is a park playground in walking distance, that there is a 24 hour Safeway, that downtown Livermore is so freakin' awesome and that there seem to be tons of family oriented activities all over the East Bay Area! Not to mention that San Francisco and Monterey Bay are that much closer to us now. Like I said, I can't wait to get out and explore!
We (and by that I mean I, because who are we kidding here?) haven't gotten as much done as I wanted to by this time because I got friggin' pink eye! And then Elizabeth got it of course. At first it was just a scratch that got infected in my eye, but somehow that turned into pink eye and I was washing my hands raw and washing sheets and towels everyday but Elizabeth still got it and then my other eye got it too. And let me tell you, it was awful. Just a few days ago I really started to feel myself again. Thankfully Elizabeth got over it much more quickly.
Josh finally went to the doctor for his bad back and had his first PT appointment today. Hopefully this is something PT can help!
Elizabeth and Aaron are adjusting well to they're new surroundings and I was a bit freaked out about having stairs but they've both been really good about it. I mean, Elizabeth climbs absolutely everything now so she took the stairs head on. It's a good and not so good thing. I am glad she has the confidence to do these types of things (Aaron still doesn't) but just because the confidence is there doesn't mean she's got the coordination. I definitely have to get a gate for the top of the stairs.
Aaron likes that we have cable again (LOL) and he loves his new bed and the big window in his room. And I know he enjoys the little pathways around our house as much as I do.
I have a good feeling about Livermore and this move. This is right for us, I just know it!
As we explore I'll be posting more pictures on Facebook and Instagram so check me out there!

OK so I clicked through from Brittany's site to tell you that I adored this..."You don't need to fill your life with fake. You are fabulous all by yourself." And then? Your post is that you live in Livermore. Where I was born and raised! What a coincidence! I guess it was meant to be. :) Anyway, love the sentiment. It gave me chills. Thank you - I needed that today.
That's so funny Lena! I'll have to find you on CGGS so you can tell me all about Livermore! ;)
