Solo

It was frigid in Kansas City this weekend and we're supposed to get snow tomorrow. Boo.

I'm not really a fan of snow. At least in Kansas. Put me on a snowy mountain and I'm a happy girl.

Well, life was different this past week. I had to figure out how to cook for one, take care of Carson solo, and fix the Internet connection when Pandora was interrupted. I can now relate to the single moms out there.

Catching on?

Yep, Brian was out of town for work.
In Canada.
And will be for two months.
Minimum.

Sucks, eh?
We miss him like crazy.
Trying to stay positive.
There are worse things.

We found out Thursday and he left Monday. He gets to come home every other weekend, but being away from him is not easy. We've been skyping. Love me some technology. I was a first timer, and I give it an A. Excludes a plus only because the connection can be kinda wonky at times.

Only one more week and this momma has to deal with not spending the day with her angel anymore. And getting herself and the little monkey ready in the mornings...solo. I am not looking forward to this transition.

Well, I missed the Friday Phone Dump last week. I was busy preparing for a baby shower for a dear friend. More to come on that.

The daily phone pics have become even more special to Brian now that he's away. This week includes one of him cuddling big boy the day he left. So sweet.

This week, we stayed busy preparing for the baby shower (thank you to Heather for hanging out with me three nights in a row!), visited Kathy and the girls, ran errands and enjoyed cuddle time...just the two of us. 

We miss Daddy.
