It's officially 1:47 a.m., and I should be sleeping...but I figure why even go to bed? Chances are I will either be trying to ignore the baby inside me who comes alive at night (Oh no!), getting up to pee, taking a couple of Tums to battle the heartburn, or attempting to roll from one side to the other (due to hip pain). I might as well see what's new with everyone elses blog...and well, maybe I'll just add a little to mine.
I'm officially 35 weeks along. I am not ready for her to come yet, and at the same time I can't wait to not be pregnant anymore. This baby is in my ribs! We have moved into our new house! Hooray. I love it! I promise to post pictures when our computer is hooked up (23rd of January). We did make it in in time to spend Christmas there...but I'm not sure if it was worth it or not! I was so stressed trying to get moved in right before Christmas...and let's be honest, we still have a bunch of stuff in the garage that needs to be put away.
The girls are doing great! Janie is loving preschool, dance, and bossing Addi around. She is so artsy and fun and LOVES her dad. Addi is such a funny little kid and always makes us smile. She is so naughty and sassy, but has such a tender little heart. If we get mad at her she starts crying and says, "Don't be mean to me!", and runs to her room. She is definitely a mommy's girl and I am nervous to see how she responds to the new baby.
Wade continues to work hard. I think he is a little relieved to not have to work on the house anymore...I am probably even more relieved! It's nice to have him around. In fact, at our house we do "Hip, Hip, Hoorays" (Thanks Ashley Landreth! :)) at Family Home Evening. If someone does something nice we give them a "hip hip hooray". This last Monday Janie said, "Let's give dad a hip hip hooray for coming home." We both just started laughing.
I love my girls. They are such a joy, and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to be a mother. I just love it. It's not always easy, and I have learned that I most definitely don't have the patience my own mother has (and she had 10 kids for crying in the night), but it is the biggest blessing in my life regardless.
Now that the house is done I am ready to start another book. Suggestions anyone?

Are you on goodreads? I've got over 200 books on there. About 50 of those I'm either reading now or are on the list to be read, but most of them I have read.
Congrats on getting into the house! I can't imagine the craziness of being very pregnant, moving and doing Christmas all at once. You are my hero!!! Hope you're getting all settled and once the baby is here and things are going smoothly I'd love to come roadtrip down for a visit to see you. I'm on a Jane Austin kick right now - but you've got to be the right mood for those... Mansfield Park and Emma are probably my favorites.
Much love
Emily
Glad to see that you entered the blog world again, Even if it is in the middle of the night!! Maybe you will get good at nursing and blogging at the same time soon!! I have heard it is not too hard to type with one hand. see ya soon!!
Welcome back to the word of blogging you slacker. How pleased am I that you have a house!! k, a little jealous too. I'm sure you have read all of Shannon Hale's books, if not, read them (princess academy, goose girl). Another really good book is "hunger games" by suzanne collins. It's a page turner. Cousin Stephanie Meyer recommended it...and we take her seriously cause she's rich and related.
I miss you. I miss carefreeness days. Good luck with baby girl #3.
It makes me so happy to know you do hip hip hoorays! I can't believe you're only 5 weeks away from having 3 little girls. Can't wait to see pictures of the new house. Miss you so much!
Hey! It 's good to hear from you. So sorry we didn't get in touch over Christmas. I was really wanting to see your belly and new house, but we just haven't been together with all of Ad's family in 2 years! But we will be back in June! I am so happy for your new place and can't wait to see picture updates of the house, you and your girls :) Wade looks the same right? maybe just bags under his tired little eyes ;)
take care and call me sometime!
Hip hip Hooray! I love it! I am glad you guys made it into your new house. I was wondering the other day how you 4 (almost) 5 are doing. I can't wait to see your new little baby! It was great to hear how you guys are doing!
Jenny! It sounds like you are doing great! (beside being pregnant!) That does not sound great. But that'll be fun to have her here soon. I love your girls, they are adorable! I want to see them again, it's been a while. :) Congrats on the house and everything. Post pics soon, I'd love to see it. Miss you!
