Wow. I can't believe the last time I posted anything was last November. I guess that shows the status of my life -- not that I'm ultra busy or anything but I am just not up to speed on so many things that used to be easy to accomplish. The babe is 6 months old and really growing quickly. It's amazing how he has grown from this tiny little thing that just slept to this fun big boy that giggles and rolls all over and wants to explore his world. He has kept me busy and tired and practically hibernating.
But, winter is over and now the weather is just too nice to stay indoors (well, not today but more on that later in this post). I have come to the conclusion that it is time to get out and meet new people and really try to establish my life here. As I look back on our move to Singapore, it seems like the transition into a "normal" life with good friends and activities happened much more quickly. It is more difficult to venture out, volunteer and be social with a small babe in tow. We've almost lived in Switzerland a year now and it still doesn't feel like home. Some parts do -- like our home. It is beautiful and I am glad we made the effort early on to decorate and fill it with the things we love. I am missing the outside community though that makes the place you live a wonderful place to be (for me).
I decided a few weeks ago that I can't let anymore time pass without trying to take advantage of this place. So, today I will venture out to a coffee for the mommies in our neighborhood. Of course it is pouring rain (which makes me desperately want to put on pjs and snuggle all day with my baby) but I am determined to get out. The baby haze is officially over and we are ready to take on our new world!
