No, the blog isn't changing addresses, the family is! But don't fret, we won't have to change the blog title, we happen to be moving to another tudor house.
We are moving out of the city to the adjacent suburban town, where many of Tyler's friends already live. The school system there is amazing, which was a huge factor in our decision to move. We are also gaining some square footage, primarily in Emma's room. Her new room is triple the size of her old room at least. This may sound prepsterous until you recall that her current room might be better described as a glorified closet. Her new room will accomodate her impending upgrade to a toddler bed, and eventually to a twin size as well. We weren't sure that would be possible in her current room. 
The other room that is gaining a lot of space is the kitchen. I am really excited about this. There is a wall of pantry cupboards next to the refridgerator. There are so many more cupboards and drawers throughout the whole kitchen, and counter space too. The kitchen sink has two bowls, and a sprayer! (We had a single bowl with no sprayer at our current house, and it drove me crazy.) They put the sink and stove on 45 degree angles in the corners, which I think might be the best idea ever. The stove is very interesting, it's a gas cooktop with an electric wall oven mounted underneath. We will have to see how that works out.
Last, but certianly not least, the new house has a finished attic. This will be the kids' playroom. Finally, a home for all of the shared toys! There is also a full bath up there, so we envision this becoming a teen lounge some day in the future, which I'm sure will happen much sooner than we think. 
The big move is happening in late June. Wish us luck!
