Change is constant

I have to say, looking for a place to live is not my favorite thing...  I know I would be happy with any house above my price range, so what?  It is very hard to be objective when I am emotionally compromised.  It is times like these, where I suppose I should sit down and really think about what is most important.  But, sitting down right now is not an option.  Our lives have been so full of change these last 5 years that I am just not certain of a whole lot right now...  do we find a house that will suit our needs for right now, or do we try to get into a place for the long haul?

We really don't want to move again anytime soon, but past experience has taught us to be prepared for change.... all the time!

Just last week I found out we are expecting AGAIN.  And even though we are both really excited (and apparently not waiting to let the world know) it proves my point.

I was reflecting on just how much we have accomplished these last 5 years...  or changed... or added...  and I was thinking about how many couples dissolve over the slightest amount of change.... and we have only drawn closer through it all.  I really love my life.  It feels like a whirlwind most of the time, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Being back home, I have a lot of people tell me I've got my hands full... so far no one says it in a negative way, just an observant one.  It helps that my kids are cute and Alice is so social.  Anyway, I can only imagine what people will say when I have another one.. lol...

Ok I suppose since I am finally sitting down, I ought to get to that list.... or a nap.

Sooo Tired

You know those days when you are going strong all day and then you sit down and feel like you haven't slept in a few days?  Today has been one of those days.

Although, I am too excited to sleep!

Spencer gets in at 3 am, but I know I won't make it until then, I probably won't even make it to 9. But I am too excited to see him :)

I think I am going to try and conjure up a 'healthy' snack and pick a movie to fall asleep to, so I am close to the front door when he comes in.

Today has been so full of getting things in motion to buy a house.  We even looked at a few today!  I was excited and I have to say, the one that is under contract... I kinda hope it falls through, because I want THAT one! The kitchen was FULL of cabinets and cupboards and tons of granite counter space. It was awesome!  Anyway, some day I will have a glorious kitchen. Someday.  For now I just need one that I can spend all day in... because let's be honest... I really spend most days in the kitchen....  Anyway, I know the right house will pop up for the right price, but at least we have narrowed down the where!  I can't wait to move. I can't wait to be settled!  But most of all, I can't wait to be together!

K off to pick a movie! or a book... hmmm. decisions...
