Moving!

So the packing has began and it's time to get through all our stuff and pack it up and get it into our new place. We are moving just to another townhouse in our area and I gotta say that I'm not enjoying this packing stuff. 


I'm so tired from not sleeping. I go to bed right after I put Rex to bed around 8pm and then I'm up at 3am no matter what. I stay in bed most days and think and drift in and out of sleep until about 6am and then I'm just up. Well that makes the days very long and it doesn't help that I crash around 11am when nap time is at 1pm. I can't sleep at nap time. It's really frustrating. 


Then after all this lack of sleep I have to pack. Lift things. Move things. Go through things. UGH! I am able to pack one or two boxes at a time and then take about a 30 minute break. Then I do it again or cook lunch or whatever I need to do for my family and then another break. This pregnancy is taking everything out of me. 


Yep! Moving is going to be difficult but I'm excited to get into our new place and get everything set up. I'm excited for the things this new house has to offer that our current place doesn't (like a special built in desk for homeschooling which has been lacking in our house for a few months). 


So if you have a minute maybe send up a little prayer asking God to give my His strength to get through these next few weeks so I can get us all settled in and back to life again (probably just in time to start planning for the new baby to disrupt everything again).

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...

Monkey's Surgery

So I finally downloaded pictures and I thought I'd share the cute pictures of my little boy after his surgery he had in April. No one should have surgery at 3 years old but poor little Monkey had to have his gallbladder removed due to his blood disorder called spherecytosis.  I had to stay in bed with him afterwards. He didn't want me to go anywhere. However, being pregnant made it so I had to use the bathroom quite often so luckily he was OK with Aunt Tiffany or Grandma holding his hand while I went. He hadn't been aloud to eat for almost 48 hours. He was starving! He ate almost the whole plate of pancakes and the nurses were shocked he could eat so much. They kept encouraging us to get him up and out of the room later in the afternoon after the surgery. So we headed out in the wagon first. He wasn't to happy about being moved and we made him walk a little bit in the room but he was glad to be out.  Granny and Great Po...
