4 day visit

 

This summer has been a rough one. I thought it would be a great idea to take a travel nursing assignment at Kaiser in vallejo and live with my parents. It has been such a great experience and so much fun to be by so much family, but I am ready to be reunited with my husband!!! I mainly did it because he had 5 week officer training but after training he came home for 4 days and moved right out to Vegas to start work. We got to go out on a date when he was home and it was so fun to spend time with him and the excitement when they saw him for the first time!!!! He has  been in Vegas for 10 days but he gets to come home this weekend for his grandmas 80th!! And an excuse to visit us! Then we get to officially move out August. 21! 

I've learned that I want to be wherever Jason is, that he is incredibly helpful and I never vcan take him for granted. I've learned that parenting is so much easer when you have another parent to back you up, and be the bad guy 😜. I've learned that my home is where my husband is. I've learned I don't like being alone and pregnant with two kids working full time. I've learned that my husband help keeps me sane and grounded. I've learned that my mom and dad would do anything for my kids and I. Literally they have saved the day over and over again. I've learned my in-laws are absolutely amazing as well! We are so blessed to have such supportive families. 

I can't wait to start this next chapter of our lives and see where it takes us. I am also kinda excited to try the SAHM GIG for a while! Wish me luck working on my budgeting skills haha!

Package

My kiddos were so excited to get a package from one of their best friends from Omaha!!! Hazel squealed with excitement as she got to open it! 

 

Mitchell is not quite the best at posing he was worried about eating that laffy taffy!! Thanks Quinn and Davis!!! And Ashley too! 

I couldn't make it through reading the card without bursting into tears. And hazel hates when I cry. They were tears of joy knowing we made such amazing friends in Omaha that would remember us- they were also tears of sadness from how much I miss them all! But I do know, that no matter where we are, or where we are going, we have made the best life long friends. 

Six flags and more

Last week we decided to pack as much summer as we could into our week! First we went to six flags! Here is Mitchell finding all the choo choos (actually roller coasters) on the map! This is before he had a blowout and he still had shorts on 😂😂

Britt was kind enough to take the kiddos on the merry go round, I went on one swing ride with Mitchell and couldn't handle any more- oh and Mitchell was just rockin a diaper and shirt here lol
 

 

Selfies with my baby (for now)

 

After six flags, I took hazel and Addie to build a bear. Hazel decided to build an Elsa bear❤️

 

The next day, I took 6 kiddos, by myself to the jelly belly factory! What was I thinking? No, with enough candy, they were manageable!! These cute 4 girl cousins (not pictured Mitchell and Mac in the stroller)

 

 

We ate and bought tons of jelly beans... Mmm.... I love the sour ones!
