After 3 longgg months — we’re so thankful to be surrounded by boxes again! 🙌🏼📦 I keep telling my little helper that I would really like to start getting things unpacked — but for some reason he hasn’t taken me very seriously yet ☺️

If you would have told me that I will have my first baby overseas and he will go on 9 flights, sleep in 15 different places, travel to 4 states and 8 countries AND move to an entirely new continent all before celebrating his 1/2 birthday — I probably would have looked at you like you were crazy (and then cried). 😆 The truth is I wouldn’t have naturally chosen this life for Henry. Let’s be real — I wouldn’t have chosen this life for myself! I’m constantly questioning if I can do it, how we will do it, or if it’s even safe to do it! (Hello, Enneagram 6!) 😂 BUT, you know what — I wouldn’t change a thing. I’m so thankful for this journey the Lord has our little family on. Yes, sometimes the military lifestyle can be stressful and scary and overwhelming and confusing — but it’s also really exciting and inspiring! It pushes us out of our comfort zones and forces us to grow in areas we wouldn’t have even known needed strengthening. It allows us to meet people from all around world and call them friends. And it constantly puts in perspective how temporary this life (and our ‘stuff’ 🤭) really is. Henry’s introduction to the world thus far may be far from “normal” (and even opposite from our own) — but it’s our prayer that he will only be better because of it. That he’ll continue to be calm and flexible when changes arrive. That he’ll naturally be open and friendly with people that are different than him. And that he’ll always recognize the Lord as faithful and constant in the midst of chaos. 💛

We finally have a new place to call home! ✔️And it’s our first house (since we’ve been married) to have air conditioning 🙌🏼 Which feels noteworthy considering we’ve seen triple digits everyday this week 😳😅

5️⃣ months ✨Henry had quite a big month traveling to Spain and Greece — just before moving 5,000 miles over to America! 🇺🇸 Yet somehow he still found time to roll over, discover his feet, and finally grow some more hair 👶🏻 We can’t get enough of our little, calm & happy travel companion! 💓

Greetings from Texas! ✨ We have finally made it to our new city! Now all that’s left is nailing down a rental home... buying a car... moving 3 separate shipments into said rental home... learning the area... starting a new job (@billyfine)... plugging into a church... finding a dentist, pediatrician, chiropractor, hair stylist (etc.) ... oh, and in our spare time, hopefully making some friends 😜 Let the fun begin!

We said our goodbyes in Georgia yesterday — and continued our journey on to Sweet Home Alabama. Of course we had a very special stop to make along the way 🧡
