Our big move is officially over, and I’ve spent the past month settling in to our new house. I already know how many right turns you have to make off of the main road to arrive at our door (four) and I know my new street address and the code to enter my front door. Now that I don’t have to cross a main street to get to my mailbox, one of my favorite rituals is checking for mail when I come home from daycare each day.
All of the toys from my old play room went down into our new basement, and I’ve been helping Mommy unpack all of the toys and build some IKEA storage units to hold them. It’s been fun to rediscover all of my toys that have been packed up in storage the past few months, and I definitely have more room to play with them now. I’m even getting comfortable enough in my new house to play in the basement with my sister when Mommy and Daddy are upstairs.
I’ve also been getting ready to start kindergarten next month. I’m not exactly sure how I feel about the prospect of going to a new place with a bunch of kids I don’t know, but I do think it’s pretty cool that I’m neighbors with my new school. I’ve tried walking to the playground a few times in the past weeks, just to get familiar with the lay of the land.
