Well after a super long hiatus, we are officially back....well at least I can hope we are. What's the excuse this time? Well, things have been super crazy around here being that we have an almost six month old baby and are now living in San Diego and Korea!
Although I had started to keep up with our lives via the daily phone blogs, the lady at the Puyallup Fair really scared me about EMF waves and cell phones so my plans to write while nursing the baby pretty much died there. I am so gullible. But then again...better to be safe than sorry.
I also had a hard time getting around to blogging because along with the move, I was busy just living each day. I would often think to myself, "this would be awesome to write about," but that meant having to set time aside to actually write about it and this in turn meant time taken away from just living the moment. It might not make too much sense but its kinda like when you go to an event that you want to remember so you spend your whole time filming or photographing it that you never actually get to enjoy the event. Does that ever happen to anyone else? Anyways thats how I feel sometimes and so I decided just to enjoy life for a bit.
But sure enough, I am worrying that one day I am going to forget everything and decided to come back and catch up so without further ado....here goes the recap on the Gonzales Family end of 2011-January 2012.
October 2011
October ended pretty hectically as we started to pack and get everything ready for the move. Towards the end there me and Jeremy were hardly getting sleep as we prepared the house for 4 different shipments. We still managed to have some fun though and took Baby Jeremy to his first pumpkin patch and to our church harvest festival.
Pumpkin Patch---of course it would be raining :( Baby Jeremy never got to see the patch since he was stuck in his stroller.

November 2011
November was one super busy month for us. Saying goodbye to Washington and all our friends was extremely hard. Despite my hatred of the weather, I really miss the place and especially the people. Its nice that although we miss our friends, we are finally with family! Its been great having everyone here and they love it too. Baby Jeremy has so much love here. It was extremely difficult to get settled here. After all, we are moving from a 2 story town home to one bedroom. We are making it work though. This was also Jeremy Sr.'s last weeks in the States and things were really busy with him.

December 2011
Daddy left on December 11 and it was real sad. We got to celebrate and early Christmas with him but still Christmas was not the same without him. He missed lots of fun stuff like the introduction of solids, presents, the first cold, and baby's first acting gig as Baby Jesus in our church Christmas pageant. It's been real hard on us since we love him so much and we know he really wants to be with our son but we are hanging in there. Thankfully, we got Skype and cell phones. Its a huge blessing.

Well there is a million more little things I would love to note but I hope to add to this one day. In the meantime I will just do my best to keep you updated with chapter 2 of little Jeremy's life, and his momma, daddy, and pups!
