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 League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I hate drama!

I really consider myself and my life pretty drama free. I try my best to keep people that seek after drama at a distance because I really just don't feel like dealing with it. I have certain family that automatically causes it but you know they are family and there isn't much you can do about it but set up boundaries to not allow it to affect your daily life. Which we do! I love all my extended family but sometimes, seriously, just grow up, stop acting like the world revolves around you and get over it. You children have their own families now! Anyway! After dealing with more family drama (disclaimer: the person I'm talking about would not be reading this so if your family and you are it's not you that I'm complaining about :) then I get a nasty note from a neighbor who is just plain being rude. And I love how they waited until I left before putting the note of the door. I haven't had a car for almost 3 full months and this week my hubby finally got his motorcy...
