At least this time I'm not knocked up....

I'm a little MIA these days. Naturally, Jonny has been away, because when is he really here? (Does that sound bitter? I might be a little bit bitter.)And now he is home but works crazy hours and we are lucky to see him for a few minutes each day. I am proud of him and his hard work! The kids have been having a really hard time though. I can tell they just never know if he is going to be here or gone and they cry for him a lot and that breaks my heart.

So in addition to managing the household and the munchkins I am trying to pack up for our big move which is just about 8 days away. By myself. Our last couple of moves were completely handled by a moving company and I am thinking that is definitely the way to go! However, since this one is just across town we are doing it ourselves. It kind of pains me to think of how many piddling little loads I've driven across town to my parent's house. Certainly not the most efficient, but it's what I can do right now!

My sweet parents. I am worried about adding more gray hairs to their heads as we descend upon them once again. They are empty nesters and here I come with my three little wild animals! How great are they for always taking us in? But, as the title declares, at least I'm not knocked up this time!

The first time Jonny left for training Emma was one and I was pregnant with Matthew. We still had our house but I stayed with my parents until we moved to California. Then when we moved back from California and Jonny left for training again Emma was 3, Matthew was 1 and I was pregnant with Sophie. I swear my parents' neighbors must think Jonny is some kind of dirtbag...gets me pregnant and runs away every time! =)

Hopefully we'll be settled in happily in a couple of weeks and hopefully I will not be as crazy as I have in times past as my cute parents will be there to lend a hand and hopefully help fill some of the void for my little ones while Jonny is away.

Hope.

The word of the day...
