wow!! you guys have been busy bees. love that you have been welcomed into your new neighborhood by warm neighbors. i do miss that about the us.
too cute and too funny about the movers repacking your boxes! the night before the movers came to pack us up in Dallas I had a dinner party. no one could believe that I wasn't packing things myself, but I figured that's what I was paying them the big bucks for!!! In the end we had 325 boxes :O... took me months to unpack!
I LOVED that 7 boys came over to welcome Cooper... and all the neighbors to meet you- sounds like a wonderful neighborhood!!
