the blog is back

Ok, so I realize I have probably lost all of my readers since a) I haven't blogged in forever and b) I've changed the URL a million times. But I have a a lot to blog about so I'm back for good. I switched to blogger because I felt like the iweb URL was just a bit too long and people could never remember the password. I also like that you can design your own header and add other fun widgets. 
Anyhow...so we've been back in Africa for almost 2 months now. I already miss VA and my daily blueberry bagel + cream cheese. It was so great seeing family and friends while we were home (I think we had a cookout at my parents' house every other weekend). Their new house is everything I imagined it to be and it will be even more fabulous when Dad finishes the screened-in porch. 
But living out of a suitcase was getting old fast and I couldn't wait for CW to see his new room. I felt like he was so under-stimulated because all of his toys and books were on a boat somewhere. And as much as I loved walking around the mall with a Starbucks, I was pretty anxious to get back into a routine and not have so many things on my to-do list (getting out of the country with him was a nightmare...too much red tape). So it's back to the land of crazy drivers and fruit I have to Milton-ize, but it's a simple life and one that I've grown to love because of that.
