The tickets have been purchased... we are going to Boston next Tuesday night to check it out. We'll be there for 4 days, which will hopefully be enough time to check out a bunch of neighborhoods and see if we like the area enough to live there. The girls will be with my parents so I'm sure they'll have a blast.
The dilemma for me right now when thinking about this possible move is the trade off between living closer to Arthur's job, and thus a shorter commute for him and more time for him at home, vs. more living space... Anyone with 3 kids care to comment? You can comment if you know my kids too- you probably have a good idea about the type of energy they need to burn off daily. I'm trying to think in terms of the first 9 months of the baby's life. Which is better, have Arthur at home an extra 30 minutes a day, or have more space for the older ones to run around a play a bit (a bit because it would still be less space than we have here). Plus I'm used to having family a short distance away if I need help (which is a lot) so that would be a really tough transition.
I asked for useful advice in the last post about the move. At this point even the non-useful advice is good! Thanks for all the prayers everyone has offered! Arthur has another interview (for another company in Seattle) on Monday so keep that in mind as well!
