Day 17

It's been 17 days since my hubby left, and I think we are getting settled into a routine. Somewhat. I mean, we still can't go shopping without an epic breakdown or a babysitter, and most of our days are spent cleaning and organizing (which I would hope to kind of catch up on eventually, and only have to clean). The babies continue to grow, and I find myself not wanting them to. I want Asher to be the same when Chris gets back, not have a full set of teeth! It makes me sad, not excited, when Addie says a new word or expression, because Chris missed it. I'm constantly checking the computer for Chris to get online, and always thinking of things I could send him or writing him notes. My phone never leaves my side, and if it does, I freak out. So hopefully I don't keep doing this the whole time, and just settle down a bit. I've been getting all the bills figured out, and it's amazing how many there are when you own a house. I miss the days where I just had rent, electric, and our cell phones to pay.
