I arrived home from Seattle late Friday night. I really missed Dorothy and Elizabeth. I got updates every day from my Mom and Elizabeth about how Dorothy was doing. It turns out that, while I was gone for 5 days, she now crawls on both knees pretty regularly (before it was one knee, one foot). And she started drinking from a sippy cup! Well, she's chewing on the sippy cup spout, and she seems to occasionally get water from it, so we'll count that as drinking. :-)
The trip was good, if hectic. I arrived in Seattle late on Monday, then spent Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday driving all over Bellevue looking at housing and daycare. I visited four daycare centers, and roughly 10-12 houses (and drove by another 3-6 houses). I was on the phone a lot, trying to set up appointments to see houses. It was very crazy, and tiring. But we found some excellent prospects, and hopefully should have housing decided and confirmed on Monday (12/22).
I flew back to Boston on Friday, and got to see my baby girl asleep that night and then played with her lots on Saturday. Now it's down to the business of getting ready to get out of Boston!
