I am an infrequent blogger. I like to think that it is because I am too busy doing things to find time to record about them. This may or may not be true. I'll take it. It's been a very crazy time in the Moerlins family. When I last left you we were a family of three living in Atlanta, GA. Now we're a family of 4 living in Portland, OR. Life could hardly be more different. Mike had a seriously awesome job offer here in Portland and Atlanta was feeling a little tired and dead-end like for us so we took a huge leap of faith and shazam... here we are. We're renting out our house in Atlanta while renting an apartment out here. I am on the search for a job, having left mine after baby Jack was born in January. Yep, little man Moerlins was born in the midst of a crazy family upheval. Mike went ahead to Portland last September while Pregnant me, Lulu and the pets stayed behind in Atlanta. Once Jack arrived we vacated the house for tennants, I spent some awesome time with my sister and dad and then finally we all reunited in Late March.
This has been the most insane experience of my life thus far. Everything I thought I knew about myself had to go back for a rewrite. Searching for a job is extremely humbling, and staying home with two small children is challenging. In spite of all the upheval and general insanity a cross country move, babies and all that jazz I am very happy to be together as a family again, and I think this move was for the best. Portland is progressive and full of positivity. I'm lucky to be spending most of my time here during some amazing weather, and have been trying to focus on having the best summer break with my kids possible, while applying for jobs during nap time and fitting in some volunteer gigs in the evenings when Mike is home.
We're having grand adventures. Check out a few here.
