I ventured (on foot) to this park a mile down our street--with 4 children!! I didn't know how far the park was from our home--and I hadn't gotten brave enough to DRIVE in LA traffic yet--so, walking was the transportation of choice :-). Unfortunately, I hadn't figured accidents into the picture. Not 5 minutes after I took this picture, Cody crushed his foot under the metal teeter-totter. I had to sit him ontop of the stroller and hurry him home--as he screamed the whole way back. AGH! Just to make matters more difficult & challenging, our sewer backed up as well--AND our electricity turned off in half of the home! AGAIN...AGH!!!!! Fortunately, our landlord had people come and fix all the house problems yesterday. YEAH for Rotor Rooter!!! So--unpacking with all these kiddos is a bit (or EXTREMELY) tricky! Sterling likes a lot of attention, so I have to plan my work schedule around his naps. Amber and Mariah have been really helpful with Sterling--AND Cody, as we've had to heft him around the house throughout the day, too. It's been trying, to say the least. However, I really love our little home. From what I hear, we got a great price for a great space! Yes--our "little" home is considered a mansion here. I have to re-program my thinking. Land is extremely expensive! Renting is rediculously pricy! Anyway...I'm so grateful we were put in such a great place. I love it!
