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).

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...
