2 weeks in our new home

Well we have been in Oceanside, CA for 2 weeks now and the only room in our house that is pretty much unpacked and organized is our kitchen. The rest of the house is only half way done, Amelia's room is half way done, Charlotte's room is half way done, our room is half way done and so on and so on. It's hard to get things done with 2 small kids needing you constantly and the husband not getting home until after 5 or 6 every night, and a cracked rib. Of course it also doesn't help that I have morning sickness all day long and migraines every day all day long as well.

I thought coming back would be easier this time since I had been here once already and it wouldn't all be so new to me. But I was very wrong, it does not get easier being so far from everyone that you love and care about. It does not get easy to leave your family and friends that have become like family. It does not get easy to leave a church where you know the people and they love and care about you as much as you love and care about them. None of this ever gets easy no matter how much you do it, when you do it or where you go.

I'm sure part of me is only feeling so sad and lonely because of all the baby horomones I have going through me but some of it is just not having anyone here to talk to or hang out with. I want to make friends but I honestly don't even know how you do that. I always made friends through jobs, school, and through other friends. Grr moving your life from one side of the country to the other is just a hard thing to do and right now I'm not enjoying it.

Finally our day has come

Take a deep breath... In just a day my family will be reunited! My husband, my kids daddy, will be flying in from CA to take us back with him. Some days I just never thought this day would come, and now that it's almost here I can hardly believe it.

Roland flies in on Wednesday morning, he will be taking a small nap before spending some time with his family. Then on Thursday we will pick up our Uhaul and get it all packed up, get the car packed up and do any last minute cleaning. Daddy will be going to bed early so we can get up at 3am and get the kids up and the car packed, we hope to be on the road by 4am on Friday morning.

The girls and I have enjoyed our year here in Ohio with family and friends but we are more then thrilled to be back with hubby/daddy and living together as a family again. Life just isn't the same when we aren't all together, and this moment has been a long time coming for us. Thank you so much to everyone that has been supporting us, and helping us throughout this very long 13 months.
