Jesse is finally home after a year away!!!

I purposely waited on sharing this information until he had been home for some time, due to OPSEC and well…we’ve had a lot of things going on.
We’re finally back to our normal routines and getting used to Jesse being away during the day for work. I have to say, I really enjoyed having him here all day every day for 2 weeks. It was nice.

We figured when he got back he would have a pretty easy going job this time around but that has proven already to NOT be the case. Another 3-4 years of hard work, long days, skipping lunch, etc. It’s like he never gets a break. It’s constantly stressful and exhausting for him.
We have the chance to go to Hawaii soon, but I turned it down. I originally said yes, but the more I thought about it, the more I got crazy anxiety over the logistics of everything. Taryn didn’t sleep well in her pack and play when we went to the Great Wolf Lodge recently so I was fretting over sleeping, then there’s a VERY LONG flight that was also giving me almost crippling anxiety over. Needless to say….I think we’ll wait until Taryn is a little older before we go. We’ll have plenty of chances, and it would be good to save that money so we can get a fence for our backyard.
House updates are coming soon!!!
