New City

We have been in Mobile for almost a month now, and it is growing on me. Gerald has loved it from day one haha! I on the other hand was sort of a nervous wreck. ONLY because Gerald works in a really really rough area of town sometimes, and we have heard numerous shoot outs. So for a while I was honestly scared for him to ride/work alone, and rode with him most nights. I am getting use to it now, and thankfully he isn't in the bad areas too much anymore. Anyways, with him working 7 days a week for the past month and a vehicle packed full of his equipment, we haven't been able to do much. Thankfully they are switching to only six days a week so he will have an off day to start having some family fun starting this Sunday. And his first check will be here next friday(it has been so stressful getting started here and we are so thankful for do much help from family.. Couldn't of done it without them)!! But after Friday comes it will be a huge weight lifted from everyone and we will be stable on our own again psyically, mentally, and financially. We were in a bad place but moving here has been the best choice we've ever made. I am so proud of Gerald for making such a 180 in life, and I can't wait for
Things to get better and better. Cole and Abby are doing great, a little bored in a hotel, but that's just temporary. And Abby knows that. She is so excited for a new house (or apartment) and she wants a "pink guitar like Taylor swift" when her daddy gets paid. Haha she says she "doesn't have a name until she gets a pink guitar".. I'm assuming she means a famous singer name?! Oh and she has become quit the little artist. Constantly drawing (really good too for age lol). We're thinking she might of got that from her aunt Tasha? Haha. I can't wait to get her involved in activities down here. So far she has gotten to play with my cousins little girl, Mary Bradford, a handfull of times and they play really good together! She loves her toys/room too haha! I can't wait to set her up a room when we find a place. Hopefully it won't be too much longer, the problem is we have to move in a good school district. Most of the good schools down here are private church's and cost a fortune (literally like a grand a month). So we are hopIng to get her in a magnet school to avoid that huge expense. There are soooo many apartments and neighborhoods here too that I imagine this is going to be a hard decision. With this heat though I say a pool is a must if it's an apartment ;) it's crazy hot already!! Maybe we can go to the beach on a off day in the near future. I'll try to update on the move once we find a new home, pray we choose the right place!!
