Living in the U.S.A

We've made it. Yes we are now here in sunny San Antonio, Texas. We've been here now for just over a week. Before that time we spent a few weeks visiting family in the States, which has been fun. Noah has been a perfect little boy whilst flying. We weren't sure how he would be, but he was just great. He fed, slept and dirtied a few diapers/nappies, he only cried once when we were descending into Dallas, and even then he only cried till he got his dummy/pacifier! (How blessed are we.)

We are now getting settled in San Antonio. Last week we were given time to go find and sort out a few things and we got a lot done too. We managed to find a lovely house (picture below) which we should be moving into at the end of this month. We really have been blessed.



Last Monday Noah was 2 months old! He's getting really big now and has found his voice! He loves oooing and aghhing at the moment ~ we love it too! I can't believe how quickly he is growing.




As most of you know I love my shoes! Yes, to part England with only half of them was difficult and my options are just too limited at the moment, but I am surviving! lol ;) Anyway, Noah is probably the baby boy with the most shoes! I do have favourites too. His newest addition to his shoe collect is his cool blue flip flops. Aren't they just the cutest. I had to buy them when I saw them, plus it's been way too hot here to put anything else on his feet. (What a great excuse to spend money on more shoes!) I think he looks so cute in them, don't you?!



Well, we hope that every one is doing well? We miss you all. Keep in touch. Ciao for now x

That's awesome! I've always wanted to visit San Antonio. It's where I was born.

Easter Fun

We really loved having a week off for Easter Break!  It was very much needed, for all of us.  I love having Noah at home.  He's such a great help and now that he's older, he's a real good buddy for me.  We have really great, grown up conversations, I love it.  We just really enjoyed family time, seeing old friends and eating lots of chocolate.  Isn't that what school breaks are all for?!  Here are a few photos of our fun.

It kind of snowed.....twice

Image
So my lovely little (or not so little) cutie pies were really excited to move here for one main reason...SNOW!  They had never seen or can remember seeing snow.  So after hearing that last years snow fall was a crazy amount and the schools were closed, they were super excited for this winter. (A lot more so than mummy, let me tell you!)  If there is one thing I have learned from moving here, although I do like it here, I DO NOT like cold weather!  I just cannot stay warm....but hey that's another story.  A few weeks back we did indeed get snow. This was the second time this year.  It was a very little but it pleased my children all the same!  They had fun in the snow till their fingers froze.  There was enough snow to make a snowman this time so they were happy. View from our front door Noah trying to make a snow angel.  The snow had unfortunately frozen, because of freezing rain, but it did make a little indent. Noah p...
