Doctor Appointment and . . . A New House!

Aden went in for his four month vaccinations and his check-up.  The doctor said he is 90 percentile for weight and 95 percentile for height now.  He seems to be slowing down a little, which is ok with us because he isn't so easy to haul around everywhere anymore.

Our big news is our new house!  We are moving off of Red Sea Desert Palms compound, which is a little drab and has older prefabricated housing.  Our school secured a home on Pearl Beach compound, which is on the beach.  We have some families there now, but houses there are expensive and don't become available all that often.  We were fifth in line for this house and never thought people would pass it up, but for different reasons they all said no.  We said a pretty quick yes.  It will be a little sad moving away from our neighbors, but we will still see them.  Our new house is a very open three bedroom with porches on the front and back, plants and trees all around, and a little grass yard!  Oh yeah, and the beach is just a couple minute walk from our house!

Here are a few pictures of what it looks like now.  It will be very different when we move in a few weeks.

I think I will get at least twice as many tomatoes as last year.  They are great eating too.

Swimming trip on Murjan compound.  He is definitely a water baby.
