Holidays

Well our holidays were great, but it's always nice to come home. Especially travelling with two small children, who need diaper changes, feedings, nap times..ect..ect... But you learn to make do. They napped when they were tired, and we made do with the rest. Bed times were good, except Aubrie is teething these days again, so the nights she cried some.. but atleast Allie slept through it. She sleeps like her daddy....hears nothing. Aubrie sleeps like me... hears everything.

It was fun, we did alot of swimming, and shopping and touring around. We bought the girls bunk beds.. Nice wooden ones that come apart, we bought a new high chair that's amazing.. it does so many things, and one huge thing I wanted was for it to fold up, and it does. Plus it was only $49.00. Things r so cheap down there it's crazy!!!

The girls had a good time, and Allie even got to meet Dora and Boots in the mall which she talked about for days and still does. She was in amazement. Lets just say it was alot of fun, and I'm sure we will be going again soon.

As for me, I'm coming up on 8 weeks, and wow I feel huge and so out of it already. I feel like I really don't know how I'm going to make the next 7 months, and am beginning to really not like this pregnancy so far. I feel fine, like no sickness or nothing, but I can hardly breath, and I feel way larger then I should for 8 weeks. But hopefully it passes, and I feel better soon.

So we have obviously decided we have to make a move in our life, whether it's moving, or building on, cause we r getting too small for this house as it is. We looked at an acreage near Disley, but we didn't like it in the end. We contemplated moving, got our house appraised for an amazing amount, but the turn around.. to buy another house is crazy. For what we want is anywhere from $300,000 to $350,000... just sickening to move under those conditions. So today I had a contractor out. Someone Riley knows well, and had him look at my ideas and plans, and everything went great!! He said all will work well, they will draw up the plans and we will go from there. The should begin by early summer and should take no more than a few months to complete. So I think we are headed that route. We would be adding on 400 more square feet. I'm getting so excited, and never dreamed it would happen this fast. He said it may even happen sooner, they just have to draw the plans and then get the permit, and it's the permit that sometimes take longer than normal. So I will know more details next week. They did all the measuring today and are coming back next week with the drawings. Iam excited.. yey!!!

Anyways.. have a great week....
