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

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! ...

Show and Tell Tuesday: Top 10 pictures

Happy Tuesday! Today I am linking up with Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday: Top 5 pictures edition! I am so excited to share my top photos, but lets be honest there is no way I could just choose five but I managed to keep it at ten! One Having our sweet girl is one of my top pictures! Seeing her rosy cheeks and hearing her little cry was one of the best moments of my life! Two Adventuring with this girl was fun. We went everywhere her first year of life, north, south, east, and west, we were always on the mood and her love of traveling and her cute smile is such a treasure. This picture just screams joy and I love it so much Three In 2015 we added this little peanut to our family, and it was also one of the best moments of my life! Just look at the little onesie! :)  Four We took family pictures in December 2015! Even though these two were so tiny and young they did so well and I cannot believe we got such good photos. I just love having photos...
