Well folks, it's been 17 months so that means it's time for the Fielding family to pack up and move again, right? Right. We figure we might as well move for the 13th time and erupt our lives yet once again. This is a very exciting move for us and one we thought we would NEVER do, but things change over time. Cody has the opportunity to telework with his new role with HP from home, which means we can move ANYWHERE we want. Washington state is our choice. It will be the 7th state we've lived in since being married, which means I've had three children in three different states. I'm on a roll here people. When we told our kids we would be moving, Carter ran to the next room and started crying. This was definitely not the reaction we were expecting since he has been begging us to live by his cousins. I asked him what was wrong and he said "I don't want to go to half-day kindergarten and they have half-day kindergarten in Washington." Trust me, I'm just as big of a fan of all day kindergarten as he is, but this is the sacrifice we will both have to make. I think I can do it. One month from now we will be starting our four day journey home and I will be wanting to rip my hair out since I'm pretty sure Vivian is not going to like being strapped in her car seat for 10 hours a day for four days. Anyone have any air miles they want to give us? Cody and I will each be driving a car. I'm thinking he would get some great bonding time with our children if he drove with them most of the way. The crazy thing is, he would totally agree to this. He did it on our move here, but we didn't have a 12 month old that time. Wish us luck as we get things ready. Oh, and we also don't have a place to live yet, but that's pretty normal for us.
