May 1, 2012: Found an old cell phone while going through some boxes from the move. It instantly became Em’s favorite toy.





April 30, 2012: Rain, rain….. go away.

Flying @ 25K feet






Recovend + Rachel!






Sad.






Playing in her room one last time






Goodbye, Washington Bay!



April 26, 2012: Another busy day! Worked in Providence in the AM, stopped by the Recovend/Betaspring office, and then flew home to finish packing up our old house.  A bittersweet goodbye, but super excited to close on it tomorrow! I think a certain someone was a little more attached to the house than I was, but to be fair I’ve only averaged 150 nights a year there for the past 3 years :)

Sunrise at Newark.






SETH ATTACK






Boston Skyline







April 25, 2012: One of those 21 hour travel days. Saw Joe over lunch, had supper with Seth up in New Hampshire after work and then I went down to Boston to see Howard and catch an awesome view of the Boston Skyline from his roof deck.  Great day.


Oh, and EWR looks like a spaceship. Caught a great sunrise looking back towards NYC over breakfast.

Photoshop, 2004 style.






I have a Clie AND a Handspring Visor






STUEBE






Don't Copy That Floppy






I can't hear you... that's better.



April 24, 2012: Perk of moving = finding awesome stuff in boxes.  Glad my wife has those AIM convos from college backed up on floppy. I should move them to the safe.


Spent the day in Richmond for work and then continued the unpacking tonight!

Starting to make it "our place"






We have some small hiking trails too!



April 22, 2012: The move continues.  My honey-do list is SPRUNG. :)

Indiana = trucks galore






I worked really really hard on that room






WHERE AM I? WHAT IS HAPPENING






Painting away






He never stops smiling!






Dad putting the signature triangles down



April 21, 2012:  The moving begins! We’re only going about 1.5 miles, so it wasn’t too bad.  We got about 90% of our stuff over before we decided to just stick around the new house and unpack a bit. We don’t have to be out of our old house for a week, so we’re taking it slow.


Bella’s not sure what’s going on, and Em loves being able to run around and have some space to play.


We are so thankful for all the friends and family who came to help us!!

Time to clean!






The Sprinkles have mad taping skills.






"pleeeez", one more chip Grandpa?






Justin doesn't need a ladder to paint.



April 20, 2012:  SOLD!!!!! Proud owners of our new house today! The moving begins tomorrow. Today, we got a head start on priming and painting, cleaning carpets, and wiping the place down.  Here we go!!

April 19, 2012: Was cutting across Ohio on Rt. 42 and spotted MARV getting gas at a Pilot station! Hilarious. Got to catch up with Justin, founder of WelcomeToCollege.com. Highlight of my day! You’ve gotta see MARV in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02hSnlxT9Z8

April 18, 2012: 14 hours in Indy before hitting the road again. Spent 8 of it sleeping, 4 of it running last minute errands before we move on Friday. Back to reality, let’s go to Ohio!

Take us home, big bird!






SJD International Terminal






The world is yours, kiddo.



April 17, 2012: Travel day. Love watching Em get excited about airplanes and start out of the window in amazement. Girl after my own heart. :)


Left hotel at 11am, flight at 1pm, landed at ATL at 7pm. 3 hour layover, 10pm departure to IND landing at 11:30pm. Rolled in the door at 12:30am.  Bedtime.

Heading to the beach.






Hot momma!






Another beach shot,






Chillin'






Ouch.



April 16, 2012: Em’s last day in Cabo went out with a BANG. She took a nasty spill off a beach chair and got a nice bump to go with the infected cut on near her lip. Looking pretty rough, but she’s a trooper.  As a result, we did room service for our last night and Em got to hang out in a robe, watch TV and eat mac and cheese in bed.  Now THAT is vacation! Home tomorrow.

Off in her own little world.






ALL DONE






With Aunt B and Uncle Jake!



April 15, 2012: Got some new family pics at sunset, and we love how they turned out! Crazy to see how much Em has changed in 11 months. Last full day in Cabo is tomorrow. Not ready to go home.  Could watch Em play in the sand every day, and sunsets every night.
