The Intermediate Period

Well, I know my last blog post said "The End," but I have received numerous requests to continue the blog, even though our time in Vienna has ended.  I think I will have to come up with a new name for the blog, but for now we will keep things as is, and revamp the blog when the time seems right.

We have had a very busy two weeks since leaving Vienna.  From Vienna we flew to DC, spent a night at a hotel, and then headed down to St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands for some r & r with Sabba and Savta.  St. Thomas is beautiful and we had a great time.  Each day we checked out a different beach, snorkeled and enjoyed a late afternoon frozen drink.  Hersh loved being with his grandparents and really enjoyed playing in the sand.  And, for a reason unbeknownst to me, he did not experience jet lag this trip at all!  It has been amazing!

From St. Thomas we headed to DC, where we currently are.  We have spent the last week checking things off of our to do list.  We found a super cute house in Silver Spring, about a half mile from downtown.  I accepted a job at Beth El Preschool in Bethesda, and we are in the process of finding a nanny share for Hersh.  Needless to say, it has been busy, but very productive.  Emily was with us all last week and it was so helpful to have her with us.  She spent a lot of time with Hersh, which allowed us to accomplish without having to drag Hersh around.  This week will be a bit more low key, as we will be balancing getting things done and operating on the schedule of a 1 year old.  Needless to say, exciting times for the Lewis Family!

Happy Family!

Ready for an adventure!
