We have had an amazing summer. After moving to the other side of the state we have had so many visitors! (thanks everybody) It was definitley a hard transition for me, and all my friends and family coming over really helped. I've lived within 5 miles from my family my whole life! So the first order of business was to get out there and meet some people. Which needless to say is not very easy when you're 30, pregnant, and have a potty training toddler:)
Walking up to another Mom at a park or a library seemed weird to me but if I was going to adjust over here I needed some "mommy support." So I did it, I made some friends with other mommies and even joined a MOPS group. I've only been to MOPS once, but had so much fun (so did T).
We have since started dance class (for T), had playdates with new mommy friends and neighbors, gone to a few Tiger's games, and even have been back to Kzoo to visit with my friends there. I miss my friends in Kzoo very much but knew I needed to start a new life over here, and you know what, I think it's going pretty good!
