Sandra Bullock is getting away from the big lights and is heading to the Big Easy. The actress has been busy setting up her home in New Orleans, where her adopted son Louis is from.
"Sandra wants to be a part of life in New Orleans and she believes it will be great for Louis to grow up there," a source told Fox411.com.
"New Orleans will give her a fresh start with her little boy... Sandra will be a hands-on mom and Louis will be her focus every day. Though it's been a tough time, Sandra still feels blessed and loved."
Last week, moving trucks were spotted outside the Victorian mansion Bullock and Jesse James bought last year. Movers were spotted carting furniture into the gorgeous home located in the Garden District of New Orleans.
"Sandra has done a lot for the city of New Orleans and she feels connected to it."
Regarding Sandra's relationship with James' children, the actress has been outspoken about still wanting to be in their lives. The source says that a workable situation that is best for all involved is still being sorted out.
"She will still see his children if she can, but that working arrangement will take time," the source added.
