Update as of late

We went to our wonderful family reunion in McCall, then traveled to Las Vegas and finally made it to our place in San Diego. We have a nice one bedroom apartment out here, it is a bit far from Robert's work, but it is definitely a nice area. Robert has been working 10 hour days, 6 days a week so we don't see him very often. We were able to go to the Seahawks pre-season game last weekend which was a blast; Kora did amazing the whole time and we had great seats (up really close on the Seahawks side). I have been attending a few mommy meet-up groups and trying to find some "mommy friends" out here (not that I don't love my child-less ones ;P). It has been nice and a great way to get me out of the house.

Things have been a bit hectic as of a few days ago....we were informed our condo sold and that our lease would be up at the end of September meaning we needed to vacate by then...we had thought we would go on a month to month when our lease was up but that is no longer an option. So Kora and I will be returning to pack our entire condo alone next week....I am not so excited about this. Not only did our house not close yet (so everything has to go into a storage pod) but now I have just about 6 days to pack an entire condo with a 5 month old, alone, and with a bad back. I am a bit overwhelmed to say the least. A day after frantically making plans and booking flights, we were informed that Robert would be returning for his graduation ceremony a week after I returned to San Diego from packing our condo... This all means that I will be taking another flight to Seattle a week after packing our condo to go to Robert's graduation (and of course they don't give me his flight details so there is no way to plan to fly together). It all is a bit of a mess, but I am sure I can do it...(hopefully). They also extended our stay to "currently" the beginning of November which means our plans for Iceland are currently on hold; they also have not told us whether to expect to stay in San Diego longer (past November) or if we will be headed to Japan. So a lot of our life currently is up in the air....as usual. I am trying to find comfort in the small reminders of home, in the silly things Kora is learning, and the tiny adventures we get to go on.  I constantly remind myself to "Stay Positive"--- life is what you make of it, so live with a smile.
