so, hooray! we found an apartment! with less than a month to spare, even. :) my incipient heart attacks and strokes can now back the you-know-what off. we'll be moving to dane, wisconsin. where is dane, you ask? well, i can tell you, but i suggest google maps or mapquest, as i am somewhat directionally challenged and have never actually seen it on a map. my understanding is that it's approximately 5 miles north of waunakee (the only waunakee in the world, btw). the apartment is great, and has basically everything that we wanted: a 2-car attached garage, eat-in kitchen (yay for no more staining the carpet with messy children eating!), washer/dryer in the unit, huge rooms, everything. it's the last house on a dead-end street, so we are literally going to be living almost in a cornfield. ah, dane. it's a pretty "nothing" little town, but it's close enough to madison/surrounding areas that it won't be a problem. we'll be moving between christmas and new year's, which is just about the most inconvenient time possible, but we have no choice. i'm just so excited we found a place and that it fulfills almost all the criteria we had that i can't even control myself. DANE!
in other happy news, ian had his first bottle today. for those of you new to the rogers family sagas or for those who have forgotten, abby was a notorious bottle-refuser. she took exactly one bottle, ever, and that was at 3 weeks old while my parents watched her. after that, nothing. we bought every kind of bottle and nipple known to mankind, and she would just scream and cry. the girl would not eat on thursday nights when i had choir rehearsal. but ian? just sucked those 2 ounces down like he'd been doing it all his life. and it was formula, even, because i'm not pumping this time. impressive, eh? brian's pretty happy that he won't have to go through the thursday night hell again.
DANE!
