It's FRIDAY! Finally

So today is a happy but sad day!

One its Friday which is always a cause for celebration! We made it through another week!
Two we are going home today! We have been away from home going on two weeks now. We popped into the apartment for a few days last weekend on our way to Nashville and then back to Savannah twice, but other than that we have been in a hotel for two weeks, so it will be nice to have all of Charlotte's toys, her cribs, my huge bed with comfortable pillows and my television.

It is a sad day though because Scott doesn't get to stay home with us. He has to remain in Savannah and work tomorrow and Sunday and Monday. Then Tuesday we are headed to Virginia for a quick drop off before running back home to be with my family for Thanksgiving. But it gets worse.... Scott has to leave Thanksgiving night to be back at work Friday. So we get him part of Thanksgiving, which is Charlotte's first Thanksgiving, but not all of it. It's pretty upsetting to me, but I know Charlotte won't remember it at all.

Being a trucker's wife is difficult but I have it easy. I get to see my husband a lot, and sometimes I even get to travel with him. I couldn't imagine being without Scott for a month at a time, or even three months at a time like many truckers wives around the nation. I look up to them for strength and patience and have it so much easier than them, because I get to see my husband almost every weekend and all holidays, even if only for part of the day. I could't imagine it any other way.

I get pretty upset by all the work, but we have bills, need food, and Charlotte needs clothes the more she grows so I know I have to suck it up and be okay with it because it is necessary. I feel like it should be okay to be upset though, only if its for a little bit. Urgh. I hate sharing my husband with so many other people, but at the same time I love his job because it is so much better than any other situation. We are very blessed with our current situation.

Charlotte is finally over whatever bug she had, and other than a cough occassionally she is a bright, bubbly cute little girl who loves to play outside and stroll in her stroller. I cannot wait to see her reaction to seeing Mimi this weekend. A two week reunion is going to be epic.
Time to pack up the computer and wait for Scott to get back so we can head out.
Have a great Friday everyone! And stay warm in this ridiculous weather! :)

XOXO

Some much needed family fun!

It's been a bit hectic the last few days! We got up and went to church Sunday morning for the first time at a new church. The pastor was so funny and made a new church less scary for me! Then Charlotte went to Mimi's for a few hours and Scott and I ran a few errands, cleaned out the truck, and went to the pool hall to play a few rounds before going to get her. I don't know what it is about the pool hall but it always is a place we enjoy going, without baby of course! After we picked Charlotte up, we went home and relaxed for a few hours and watched tv and played COD:ghosts!( Another one of our couple things) Then I packed a bag for Charlotte, did Scott's laundry, and cleaned up the house. Finally I packed my bag. Why am I packing bags and cleaning up the house you ask? Well, Charlotte and I are with Scott this week going to Florida. We are going down to the gulf coast for a little sun, surf, and family time, and Scott has to work a day down there as well! Then we ar...

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all! It's been a wonderful family weekend! Unfortunately our Memorial Day ended early, since Scott is now headed to work. He has to be in Miami, 7 am tomorrow! Yuck. Luckily Monday is almost over and we only have to make it until Friday until we see him again! Trying to stay positive and look at it as a good thing, not a bad. It is hard to see him leave, but I know he has to go to work. Charlotte was sad but luckily nap time was soon after he left so she transitioned into sleep fine. She will be upset when she gets up in a few but lots of cuddles, cartoons and playing until bed time will keep her preoccupied. We are headed to the beach this weekend, and then staying down there for the week while Scott works, but we will all be together and Mommy and Charlotte will be looking at houses while Daddy works so we will stay occupied with that and lots of pool time! Cannot wait until this week is over. May is almost over, then June is here! Cannot believe that! ...

Weekend Recap!

Happy Monday Ya'll!  I don't know about ya'll but daylight savings is completely throwing me off! With it being daylight at 7:30 last night to it being pitch black taking Char to school this morning my body clock is off, but only a little since I am up at all hours with a new baby!  Three weeks ago we welcomed our newest little, and even though I am exhausted I am enjoying the cuddles and snuggles from our newest little guy! We are slowly getting into a routine, and the oldest two are still enjoying little Skyler still so that is always a positive sign! I for sure though Ri was going to lose it because he doesn't have mommy all to himself, but all the messes and cartoons are helping him through it! Plus I am starting to be able to spend some time with Ri once Skyler has eaten and can be put down! This weekend was a good one! I got to have some one-on-one time with my girl, and got to spend some time cleaning up my house a little, and Scott made some delic...
