The Bad, Good and....Big

First thing's first...

"The Bad"
We are getting kicked out. Bummer. We've gotten so "spoiled" living in our apartment. Not like we haven't had to work for our keep, but I'd say the good definitely outweighed the bad. Now we're going to have to go back to doing things normal people do, like pay rent and utilities. Ugh. And no free Dish? Maaaan! I think it's going to be really hard to leave this apartment. We've been here for almost 2 years (longest place we've lived somewhere) and we've become quite attached to all the quirks and wonderful things about this apartment. I'll try not to get all sentimental on ya'll, but suffice it to say, it's been incredibly fantastic to live here and it's going to be more than difficult to leave.

"The Good"
The silver lining around that big, black cloud is that we are going to be ok! :) There is an apartment in the ward opening up sometime toward the end of April. The owners here have agreed to make it work so that we can keep living here until then. This new apartment is owned by great people in the ward and there will be access to a lawn! Wahoo!! I won't have to stick a sign on the door if I need to run a quick errand or deal with people complaining about their doors being frozen shut. (We live in Idaho people.) This new apartment is also just down the road from us and isn't in a wall-to-wall complex, thank goodness. We're SO glad we get to stay in the ward!! We're also just glad to have a plan and to not be up in the air about this whole thing. We feel very lucky that we get to stay in till the end of April so that our moms can come to help with Gwen and have a little space to themselves and that we won't be moving when I'm great with child. We've also negotiated that we get a free storage unit here at least until December because we figured any apartment we move into now will be smaller than what we've been used to. Even with my crazy nesting that is causing me to get rid of things left and right, I'm still amazed at how much stuff we have. Which brings me to...

"The Big"
That would be me. I can't sleep; one of the reasons being little miss Gwen is having what seems to be an awesome party inside my tummy. My back isn't hurting as much and I'm not as sore these days so the nesting is coming back again, just at a slower pace. I'm almost sick of being pregnant enough to want her to come out. Not quite. Give it a week or two and I'm sure I'll be DONE. I don't know if this is normal, but the thing I'm most nervous about is Miles. How will he handle a new sibling and a new house in such a short space of time? Eeek! I'm starting to ramble. The pregnancy is still going well, I've been having cravings again, (this weekend it was whoppers and OJ) and I hate doing the dishes with such a protrusion out front.

Guess that's it. Time to try and sleep again.
