For the past two months we have been crazy busy with house-related stuff. We bought a new home, which we close on in a little over a week. Between packing, working, picking out (fighting over) paint colors, etc...we have been really busy. The kids have been great through it all - Kerala has generally been pretty psyched about the new house. She has requested that her room be a space theme with a castle and an elevator. We are accommodating hte space theme request. While we close in a little over a week, we won't be moving in until the end of June while some work is being done at the house. We are very fortunate in that a friend of ours has a vacant house in the city that we will be using for the next month and a half. The only downside is that we basically have to move twice. If all goes well, we will be in the house in July. That will give us plenty of time to adjust before Kerala starts preschool.
The kids are doing great - Kian has been taking some steps, not a ton. Today he walked from me to our friend Alba, twice! The funny thing is that he only seems to be taking steps at Kerala's art class. Even though he isn't walking, he is talking like crazy. At this point, I would say he has between 20 to 30 words. He is really picking up verbally and it's just amazing. I think it's because he hears Kerala chattering away non stop. Today was pretty funny because Kerala was getting pretty bossy with him and Kian responded in a pretty bossy garble of words.
As I mentioned, Kerala is pretty psyched about the new house. She has been talking about preschool a lot and I think she is ready for it. She is very into having friends and will go up to any kid at the park and introduce herself and ask them what their name is, so I think preschool will be a great environment for her. We are still figuring out which preschool she will be attending, but for now it looks like we are going to send her to a Spanish immersion preschool. It's a block away from our new home, so it is in an ideal location.
