CasaPope: Getting settled in Aberdeen

So while Stella had a lot to say in her last post, its was not very coherent. So from now on, for everyone's sanity, she will only be posting on special occasions or for very very important toddler news.

So we've made a habit of weekend woodland walks. Once again, it's apparent that so long as Stella is constantly entertained or stimulated she can go hours without a peep. Meanwhile, back at the farm (aka our family room), she can't go more than 15 minutes without needing a change of scenery or a tour of the house on her carriage (aka mommy's arms). So for the further sake of James and I having quiet weekends, we tote Stella along to explore Scotland's countryside, seaside, castle trails, and (eventually) whiskey trails. Being as how summer's almost over here in Aberdeen (yep it's already dropping down to the 50s on average) we're trying to make our way to as many castles, B&B's, and beaches as possible. We must have missed the dog days of summer while we were sleeping. But "No. We do not long for the muggy, humid 100+ of Houston. Thanks for asking though."
