It's been awhile since my last post - sorry about that. P and me have been busy and I've neglected my blog.
Last week was a whirlwind. We had Jon's family here through the weekend then my grandparents stopped by on their way back up to Illinois from Florida. It was so great to see them. They took off in November and hadn't seen Parker in person since then. He had grown and changed so much. P fell in love with his great-grandpa Jack. He love great-grandma too, but there was something special about g-g'pa. I think it was the baldness they shared. :) G'ma and g'pa were only here one night then we all drove up to Illinois together. P & me went back to IL without Jon this time - he had to stay and work. :( We missed him very much - I especially missed him for the car ride. P was pretty bored in the car, but did a lot of sleeping and we sang a lot of kid's songs. I bought him a portable DVD player while we were in Decatur for the ride home. He really liked watching the movies.
We stayed in Illinois until Monday then headed back to TN. I stopped by ADM before heading back to say hello to my ex-coworkers. It was so great to see all them. It was hard to leave Illinois...I had that homesick feeling in my stomach for part of the drive home, but I was excited to see Jon and get back.
This week the weather has been great and we've been to the zoo, a park and ran several errands. I went out on my first mom's night out Tuesday night with a mom's group I have met in TN. It was very nice to get out of the house and have some adult conversation. I'm headed out again tomorrow night with some girlfriends for dinner and drinks. I've made some good friends here and really think I'm starting to settle in. I still miss my family like crazy, but it's easier when you have friends.
I'll try to do a better job updating my blog... :)
