Hello! I'm from the U.S. (Maryland) and will be moving to London this fall for my husband's job. We have two sons (3.5 years old and 6 months old). My husband's cousin lives outside London and in my efforts to research the area she told me about Mumsnet. I signed up for the account a couple months ago and have just been lurking, but would really like to contribute my thoughts and ask questions as we move closer to our move date, but felt I wanted to introduce myself before beginning to just start commenting. I get my daily email with the "most viewed" AIBU posts and love them! I've actually started learning quite a bit from you all already. Someone asking where to buy coats for children for school and people suggesting where they shop (then I go check out the websites and make little notes to not forget these places), or what's a reasonable amount to spend weekly on groceries, or even just etiquette questions. Anyway, just wanted to say hi!
