Wow- an update after many many months!
I'm not sure if I even remember how to update our Family Blog. It has been so long, I'm not even sure where to begin!
Well, I'll begin with Kaelyn. Our daughter is now 2, and such an amazing little person. Each day she amazes us with her talking, her memory and her little personality. She loves imaginary play at the moment, and we love watching her play when she gets into the "imaginary zone" as we call it. It's so cute!
Jason is now permanently working as a Probation Officer in Salmon Arm. He loves his new job, the people he works with and his office. The only thing he'd like to change is the 45 minute commute!
Which brings us to... selling our house! In January we decided to list our house with the hopes of moving to Salmon Arm. It's been on the market for three months, and we've had 7 showings and 2 Open Houses. As anyone knows, it's challenging to maintain a spotless house when you've got a little one at home! We've also looked at several houses in Salmon Arm, and have fallen in love with several houses only to see them sell of be pulled off the market.
So after a lot of consideration we've decided to pull our house off the market. We love our home in Vernon, and I still enjoy my school where I teach. They've been super accomodating and understanding with me since I've returned to work after mat leave, and they don't bat an eyelash if I leave the school 1 minute after the bell rings to pick up Kaelyn at Day Care. Also, Kaelyn loves her Day Care so much, and is so comfortable and happy there. All in all, the only bad thing about Vernon is that Jason has to commute. And he is a trooper! In this market, we are grateful to have our jobs and to have a nice home.
Anyway, thanks for reading if you got this far! I hope to keep our blog updated more regularly, preferably more often than once a year ;)
