Preparing for the Expat life ...

Cora will be an expat before she is even one year old! CRAZY!

At 10 months old tomorrow, Cora is helping us work on all the final details for our upcoming journey. Currently, we are figuring out where to live in Bern that will allow us to bring our pets (kind of a nightmare but we are hopefully getting close to making something work), getting final work done on our house for the appraisal on Saturday (if the appraisal goes well with the bank and the lady gets her loan then we will hopefully close the end of the month), selling and packing as much stuff as possible, helping Siobhan with last minute wedding plans (her wedding is next week), saying bye to some of our favorite people and getting some last quality mountain biking and hiking in on some of our favorite trails. It's kind of a stressful time (especially since nat will now be gone most of the month) but we are trying to have some fun. 

Cora's been a good little helper, although she is on the move like crazy lately- climbing stairs, boxes, crawling everywhere and has so much energy!! Here are quite a few pics of the last week or so...

Bend!
