Womp womp

You don't have to read this if you don't want too. It will probably  be pretty Debbie Downer-ish.

Anyway, we are moving out of our apartment this weekend!! Woohoo!! We aren't moving into our house yet though. Still waiting for the paperwork. We will be crashing with my generous mama. I feel so bad that my family of 3 is going to be staying there but she is so willing to help us out and I am so thankful to her for that! It's been awhile since she's had a one year old in the house, hope she's ready ;)
 Back to moving out. It has snowed like crazy. I'm am SO not looking forward to moving in the snow!! Eww cold! Well, it's not like I'll be moving anything. Just standing there bossing the boys around suggesting what should go where. Luckily, we got a storage unit for super cheap so we don't have to cram my moms place with all our shtuff. I am do done with apartment living. We paid our very last rent check earlier this month. Woohoo! Our next payment will be our mortgage!! Ha! I'm excited about that now....

Moving on. Have any of you ever had to deal with Restless Legs Syndrome? It is HORRIBLE!!! I usually can't get to sleep until around 4:30 or 5:00 in the freaking morning!! The worst part is how badly it drives me crazy. It's such an annoying feeling. I've increased my iron and vitamins, I don't drink caffeine late in the day, I've been eating more bananas for the potassium but none of that has helped. I don't want to take any prescription drugs as they cause day time sleepiness and possible dependency.    Also, I'm off my happy pills and that has been a major adjustment. It would be so easy to just get back on them but I am trying really hard to be aware of my feelings and talk myself out of the depression. It isn't easy.

 I am so grateful for the gospel. I have praying with all my might and I can see the many blessings that I have and I can feel the Lord helping me and helping us.

Sorry for all the complaining. I'll try to post something happier next time!

A quick post from Arizona

Hi friends! I thought I would do a quick update here in Phoenix. We have been having so much fun! Eating lots of pizza and wings, having wii tournaments and just enjoying quality time with family and friends. Oh and as I'm typing I can look out the window to the right of me and see the beautiful, WARM sunshine and blue skies. It has been lovely, and a little hot weather.
Well there is a little sneak peak of our trip! I will blog all about it when we are home next week!! (If I get time as we'll have to be packing up to move into our house!)
