Lowcountry here we come!

Well, we're finally here! It's hard for me to believe that a little over a year ago, we were finding out that Brian had matched at MUSC and that we were having a little boy! Time sure does go by fast! So I find myself now typing in our new house in Charleston (it only took AT&T 3 weeks to get our DSL up and running, but that's another story). Anyway, we closed on our house here on June 17. The movers came the 16th to pack our house in Birmingham, and then they came on June 17 to load the truck that was to head to Charleston. Brian, Caleb, and I left the 16th to head to Charleston while Abby Grace stayed back home with Grammy and Granddaddy. As we were about to walk into the lawyer's office to close, we get a call from our mover saying that they had underestimated our stuff and that another truck would have to come on a later date (that later date being July 3)! So our stuff came on the 18th, and we began unpacking while we waited for Abby Grace and the grandparents to arrive. Abby Grace was very excited about the new house! She was really cute because she would ask things like if the truck was going to be bringing the window or door that was in her room in B'ham. After spending a few days working on the house, putting in ceiling fans, and trying to get organized (all with the hired help of Carl Brunson!), we had to head back to B'ham for Brian to finish up his residency at UAB. And now we are back in Charleston, and Brian has begun his fellowship in gastroenterology. So far things are going well for him; he's just staying pretty busy as he learns the ropes. We are still unpacking and trying to get settled in. We love our neighborhood and are really excited about the pool and playground that we have! However, we do miss everyone back in Birmingham! Stay tuned for pictures of the house and new updates on the kids!
