The vacation comes to an end

Sadly I always knew our time in Australia would come to an end. what I didn't know is how much I would love living in Melbourne. It was such a unique and family friendly place to live. If I was better at planning my pregnancy I would still be there. Due to flight restrictions during pregnancy I recently returned to Washington while Eric finishes working in Australia. I would have preferred to just have the baby in Australia but with our timing the baby's due date is 1 week after Eric's leave date. I am crossing my fingers (and legs) in hope he is able to make it home for our daughters birth.

On a positive note Ava has been in heaven spending so much time with family both in California and Washington. I thought she would miss our routine and all our fun activities in Australia but I think all her cousins have made up for it. I have the hope that there is another temporary relocation assignment in our near future. My first choice: Melbourne Australia (A girl can dream).

I wished to include all our family pictures from the last couple of months but I will have to get Eric to post those before our computer travels across the Pacific Ocean. I'm sure by the time it gets to our home in Seattle I will be a little preoccupied with our new baby.
