Livin' in America

I haven't posted anything since April 9th...that has been a long time ago, but I have several good reasons. Harrison and I have been living back in the good ole USA since the end of April. This whole transition has been challenging, but we are hanging in there. 18 days until daddy joins us, but who is counting, right? I guess the biggest change, at least in Harrison's world, is I've gone back to work and he goes to daycare now. He has been going for about 4 weeks now and he just now doesn't cry when I drop him off. It's such a good feeling to know he isn't going to have a huge meltdown every morning. He is really good at school and he loves the teachers there. He has already been sick, but that's just part of it. As for me, I'm working at Navy Federal again. I still don't feel like I just click with any one person there, but I do like it. I like getting dressed up and out of the house. All the girls I work with are really sweet and my bosses are great! That's half the battle right there. Our stuff arrived from Spain 2 weeks ago on Wednesday. Needless to say working 40 hours a week with a toddler by myself, the boxes aren't coming along very quickly. This weekend I finally got the kitchen unpacked. Now, I just have to get it organized which I'm almost finished with. Like I mentioned above Ben will be here soon. He gets here June 25th and will have a couple of weeks off before he starts his school down here. In December he will leave for 8 months (I've gone crazy after not even 2 so not quite sure how I'm going to handle 8) so we must make the most of our time together as a family. The day after he comes home we are going to New Orleans to take Harrison to the zoo. I'm sure it will be a fun day!
Moving back to the USA has been very overwhelming. The hardest part has been not having many friends to rely on. It's so hard to do everything by myself. At least both of our moms are close if something bad happened. I do finally have Internet and Saturday I'll get cable so maybe our life is getting back to normal. Sorry no pics, but I would be embarrassed for anyone to see my house right now. After I get it decorated and organized I'll post pics. Love to all!
