Adulting Hard

The Rutherfords have been having a seriously full load of things to do in the past 6 months or so. Where we normally have lots to report on work, we have even more to report on life! Adulting is the term that we have coined in all of the decision making that we have been doing as of recent. It's a Lot and nothing that most of you haven't had the joy of doing many times in many ways as well...just our first time!

Work is good for both:
--- Kurtis continues to work at Hudson Scenic with a promotion to Journeyman and swings in at Jersey Boys on automation whenever they give him a call.
--- Mary is full time dressing at Jersey Boys and part-time day working at American Psycho and Matilda. She intends to cut back a bit more as we head in to summer and baby takes more energy.

Life:
--- Apartment things are coming along. We had been very anxious about getting all of the changes made quickly when we closed on our home March 16, 2016 and we are finally seeing results that look as though we will be able to make our current move date of May 31, 2016 happen! 
--- Better still, our apartment is starting to really look like it is Ours and that it will be a beautiful home to raise our family in!
--- Baby Rutherford is growing beautifully. The technicians who get a peek all say what a great profile the baby has and always comment on how long the baby's legs are. 
--- Our trip to Kansas was so good! We loved getting to spend time with everyone and are really glad to have done that before the baby comes.
--- Currently our travel will be restricted to minor travel around New England, so you all got the last of the long haul until after baby arrives.
--- Now it's on to packing and baby classes for us. We begin the first of several classes tonight and I start sorting a few more things as soon as this is posted.

We are so blessed to have a home and family here in New York City. It combines all of our dreams together in a way that we never thought possible! 

Love to all,
Mary and Kurtis
