Well, we've been here for a month already. We've been up to so much that I don't even know where to begin.
I stay home with our babies. That alone has been an adjustment for all of us. I'm still trying to get used to it, & I'm so thankful that it's even a possibility. I was a single mom for so long & I've always provided or contributed -- so not feeling like I contribute financially has been interesting. Being home all day has also been interesting. The kiddos & I drive each other crazy AT LEAST once a day, I now have no excuse not to have the house somewhat tidy & dinner ready at a proper hour, & I'm trying to find ways to keep both boys entertained. Sheesh! I am getting better at it & I'm surprised & pleased that I still take time to get ready & look pretty for Tyson. ;)
Speaking of Tyson, he is loving his new job! He works minutes away from our home so he has lunch with us everyday. He's home by 5:30 for dinner & we still have plenty of time together as a family. He also comes home in a good mood & tells me all about his day. =) (Our old work schedules sucked big time. He worked 8am-4pm & I worked 4pm-9pm. We never saw each other & I was always so tired when I got home each night.)
Another nice change: not working Saturdays! We have time for adventure & exploring our new home. Summer in Livingston has been so fun. It's pretty lively around here since we're close to Yellowstone.
In our first two weeks we: found our favorite places to eat, got library cards, played at the park, went to the farmers market, had dinner in bozeman, explored the gallatin national forest, went to a grizzly encounter, bought a rad flag, made our summer bucket list, & have been making little crafts.
Up next: a visit from Grandma Becky.
