So when I was about 12 weeks pregnant Brian found out he had orders to Osan, Korea. I got really excited because I thought I was going with him; well I wasn't. To say that this was the worst timing EVER was an understatement! We then had to decide if I was going to stay in Utah and have Kenzie there or move to Florida and stay with my parents while he was gone. I had a great job in Utah at an awesome hospital and had great friends there that I would miss terribly but in the end I chose to move to Florida. I had not been there during the summer in 5 years so I thought it would be fun and bring back memories of fun in the sun. Most of all is that my family would be there to help me with the baby when she entered this lovely world. When I first got to Florida and after Brian left I'm not going to lie I had a hard time. My friends had their own lives and it took me a while to accept it for what it was. I have always been a go - go - go type of person so to just sit at home was torture! I was starting to wonder if I had made the right decision. Looking back I believe I did. One of the biggest concerns for me was if Brian was going to be able to come home for Kenzie's birth or not. For me this was hard because even when he bought his plane tickets to come 2 weeks before my due date I was still worrying when I was actually going to go into labor. He was only going to be home for 4 weeks so we had a limited time together. In the end it couldn't have worked out any better! He got to be there and also spend about 3 weeks with her! He just left last Thursday for the remaining 7 months of his tour and I'm hoping it goes by fast. I am so grateful for Skype where we get to have our mornings together. I really thought that it was going to be harder on me emotionally when he left but for the most part I was "OK". I think I cried enough the weeks leading up to it! Hopefully soon we will find out where we are going to live! One of theannoyingexciting parts of living the military life!
