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

Show and Tell Tuesday! House Tour 2016

Happy Tuesday Everyone! Today I am linking up with Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday! Today it is House Tour! I have always loved these posts, but have never participated in one because of the fact that we were in a two bedroom apartment, which was tiny for our family of four. This past April we bought our home and moved in and three months later we are finally here at this post and I am so excited to join along and invite you all into our home! It is still a work in progress and none of the walls have been re-painted but I am loving all the grey tones for now, it keeps the home neutral and cool until I feel like spicing things up! Come on in!  We are still decorated from Fourth of July, but here is the front entrance.  When you walk into our home this is the first thing you see. There is a hallway to the left of the staircase, and to the right is the dining room. This is our formal dining room! I need to do an updated tour of this room but for now I b...

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday Ya'll!  I am so glad it is Friday! It has been. rough week for this momma, the kiddos have been loud and crazy but have been so good this week but everything else is just super crazy haha!  Today I am linking up for Friday Favorites with Narci , Andrea and Erika !  So here are some random favorites that happened this week! Cuddles with this sweet boy have been a favorite this week! I have been having on and off contractions and lots of pain so I have been bed ridden for a good portion of the week and this little has hung out with me and watched cartoons! Cuddles are definitely a favorite!    Trying to let this boy in the house more and more since its been chilly outside.  While the training process has been rough, he has started to snooze in the afternoons and those are definitely a favorite!  Breakfast conversations with these two are a favorite from this week! It is always non-stop with these t...

2019 Year In Review: Part 3

Hello!  It is such a hard time in the world right now. It has been a couple months since I last wrote, life has been busy, but while everyone is social distancing, staying home, and doing our part to get rid of this nasty virus I wanted to post some memories of last year to remember. October-December of 2019 were packed full of activities, and just going through the pictures is exhausting, so I have no idea how I even kept up! Grab a drink, and cozy up and I hope you enjoy! October  October started out with birthday naps. All three kiddos are in the same room, and I was laying on the bed with Skyler and we all napped and was just what this momma needed for her birthday!  Hubby brought me the most beautiful flowers for my day and we got booed, by a mystery neighbor Naps were had, especially in mommy's arms  and all of the kindergarten crafts occurred. We painted a pumpkin after her favorite book character Ferdinand.  Quick f...
