About Me

After being a 'single mom' for almost 10 months while my husband pursued his career to better our lives- I find myself entering a new phase of my life to make our hopes and dreams possible...to find the companionship and love of my husband again in an environment where we see each other every day not once a week...and to renew the incredible father daughter relationship that exists in my household.

Home Sweet Home

Day 1 was the start of this 'Next Phase'; and the epitome of what I'd call adventure. Randall had to work so his dad, uncle and aunt helped me and the girls load up and make the trek down the mountain. I had spent the week packing (without Randall's help), so who knows if I got everything we needed (I am finding out daily I didn't)....Not to mention the exit from what is better known as 'The Black Hole' was pressed by impending rain. We rushed out the door, down the mountain, unpacked from the cars and then the family was off- and me and the girls were left here to start shoveling through the piles that were left here for us. I must not forget to mention how our sweet little girls clogged the bathroom sink with toilet paper and let the entire 1/2 bath fill with up to an inch of water. We are not positive if it was Pey, but LG swears it was- guess we'll never find out!
Day 2 was mothers day, and we tried a new church- definitely not what we were used to. Pey let us know this by asking on the way out of church 'Are we going to doughnut church now?' By the end of the day most boxes were unpacked- still, though, the 6 trash bags of clothes (yes, I am not kidding, Nana must love her girls because they are literally full trash bags) still sit piled in our tiny closet. When I get time, those will be rifled through. It will be like Christmas for the '19 kids and family' TVShow, except we only have 2 kids- and a one bedroom apartment :)

Days 3-5 have been pretty consistent: Mommy goes to her new work (orientation for a week) while daddy takes the girls to the new babysitters. Then daddy goes to work, mommy picks up and we make dinner, do baths, books, stories, then bedtime. I am loving work- can't wait to get on the floor though and stop listening to speakers and looking at computer modules. That will start next week though!

Anyways. The adventure thus far is a pleasant and happy one. It's not taking as long as I thought to get in a routine, but that will change weekly as our schedules change. We are LOVING being together after 10 months, and looking forward to THE NEXT PHASE of life!!!
