Home girl

Matt and I recently made the decision to try to keep Eden as close to home as much as possible. While we've always been big fans of long country drives, Eden decidedly is not. When she was a newborn, she'd sleep peacefully in her carseat, but that time is no more. She's been growing progressively more agitated in her carseat for the past several weeks, and after a car trip out to Shenandoah during which she screamed at an ear-splitting volume for over an hour, we've decided it's in everybody's best interest to limit ourselves to things within walking distance as much as possible.

And that's really fine with us. We like to be at home and we knew that having a baby was going to change things. The big difference is that where we previously ran all of our errands together, now one of us will likely end up staying home with Eden. But it's probably best for her health anyway, and we know it's best for her comfort. And we know it won't last forever.
