It's safe to say I'm a roller coaster, isn't it?

I'll bet that some of you were wondering how we were possibly thinking about trying for baby #2 when just a month ago I felt like I was losing myself and was suspecting that I might be suffering from postpartum depression.

Truth is, I have felt like an entirely different person since day 2 in our new home.  M isn't working 80 hour weeks. Carina hasn't been nearly as fussy as before. Tomorrow I will see some of my family for the 3rd time since our move. Being just a few hours away is an entirely different story...it's like I have an additional support system due to the proximity. We can finally unpack everything (that we had previously stored due to the short duration in our last apartment) so I am feeling much more settled. Because I know we'll be here for a while, I have the motivation to go out and make friends, have play dates, etc.

I am enjoying life again.

For this I am so thankful. I think {and hope} that what I was feeling was situational. We'll see how the next few months go.

I am so happy to be "home".
