It's Moving Day!

I am so excited to be moving. Now the packing and unloading I wish wasn't something we had to deal with but considering the cute town home we are moving into...I'll deal with it. I am really going to "miss" this "wonderful" apartment. All the charming people that never say Hello, or the side entrance right outside our living room where people yell wonderful things, slam the door shut or jiggle the 2nd locked door until the door gives and opens without a key. Im going to "miss" the management that are really grumpy people, that just want their money and don't care where its coming from or your problems about the apartment.....
Here are 2 pictures from the craigslist ad. Our kitchen has black appliances, and the picture is taken from the dinning room/eat in kitchen area, the door leads to the full basement. The other picture is looking from the dinning area into the living room. The pictures don't give it enough justice but its at least giving you an idea.














I don't know when we will have internet, but my cell works great in the new place! Also, I can't find our camera and its killing me. I have never in my life stressed over an object so much. It's constantly on my mind, thinking about places I need to look, it's starting to get really annoying.

La la la

We are moving Friday and Saturday, and won't have internet so this might be the last update for a while...we don't know for sure.

I lost my camera! I'm going insane because Ive searched everywhere, hopefully once we move it will show its face. If not, then Ill take horrible pictures with my cell until we can afford a new one :-(

Brody is wearing 6-9 month clothing, he is not even 4 months!

Neacel told Nick he would pay him "HUNDRED dollars" for a sip of pop

Nick is going to be putting together his summer semester this week I think, and depending on time he gets off we are going to Utah to see family and friends.

Im looking for a part time job to make us some extra money

We are buying a mini van, and I haven't been this excited in a while

Even though we are moving in 2 days, we only have 5 boxes packed! Luckily we are only moving 5 miles away so we can load up my moms vehicle, take it over, unload, and put away...then load up again....we will do this at least 15 times Friday!

Neacel and Broden are the cutest kids ever...

I made sugar cookies and it's taking all my will power not to eat a ton of them.

Im so excited for dinner tonight, Rustic Italian Tortellini Soup!

A moment in My Mind....at 5am

Brody decided we didn't need sleep tonight.....its 5am and we have been up since 2am. I'm glad he chose tonight since I went to bed at midnight!

Since Im up I should workout or clean...or both

We sign our lease papers soon! Im excited to have my washer and dryer back :-)

I can't wait to buy a van

I think I might start drinking soy milk

Summer, oh summer...Where are you?

I need to paint my nails that super cute coral color Nick bought me

We got rid of the binki, day 1 was great, by day 3 we all needed a padded room....I hate binki's! Everything went downhill when he got it back

Im enjoying watching The Nanny, but I wish Golden Girls was on

I can't wait to move back to Utah

My house is freezing

Little Brody

Little man is doing great. He had an ultrasound Friday at Akron Children's Hospital and we found out he has what we thought was missing and over time it will drop. If "it" doesn't drop by 6 months we have to see a specialist and then there is the possibility of surgery when he is 1. But in general everything looked fine, and now we just pray that it does its thing and shows up so we don't have to look at surgery as a possibility. Oh and he pee'd on the technician 4 times!

It's a monday in my home. The house is a mess from not being home this weekend and I need to get packing. Both boys have HORRIBLE coughs, the deep hoarse ones, and runny noses! So sad! So we have the humidifier out, and pedialyte popsicles in the freezer. I woke up with a little bit of a sore throat....but feeling fine now. But on the bright side, I got to sleep in till 10:30 this morning thanks to my wonderful husband, and Broden gave me 5 hours of sleep before he was hungry last night!

Oh and we got the town home! We are moving the 18th and 19th! The owner is working with us with the rest of the deposit....now to get a part time job at Target or somewhere fun!

Ice Storm



We got hit by the storm! We have about half an inch of ice covering everything. Will I leave the house today? Heck no, but I think its so pretty. Everything just has this glistening to it. School was canceled yesterday for Nick and it was pretty calm around here, today its canceled again luckily. (yes the flag is frozen solid, and the plant is covered too....if you look closely you can see drops off the leaves that froze)

Fast forward 3 hours: Mother Nature warmed up and ice started melting, then rain/sleet started up again and now its a winter wonderland outside. I was able to get some pictures of the ice from a local news channel so that you guys can see what we are dealing with. Ice storms are one thing I missed while living in Utah. I think they are just amazing, time is frozen for a little while. It seems the state is pretty much shut down when I go down the list of school closings, rumors are that a lot of businesses are closed too.

Besides the storm we are doing good. Broden had to go to the dr Monday and we found out he weighs 16lbs 4 oz, which is what Neacel weighed at 4 months, not 3! Brody is definitely a little chubbers, but we wouldn't have it any other way. Also, I need to ask everyone to keep Broden in their prayers. I don't want to say anything just yet about why, but we will know for sure Friday whats going on. Neacel is doing great, and is currently sitting on the other couch with Nicks xbox remote acting like he is playing while watching Sesame Street. We found a perfect townhome in a wonderful area and are trying to work out little details and hopefully we can take it. Its ours if we come up with a certain amount of money. We are wanting to try and work a little deal with them. The town home is adorable though. Huge eat in kitchen and living room, large bedrooms with plenty of closet space. We would have a full basement which has a room down there too that we could use for a toy room or something. We would have more then enough storage and room for everything we owe. I pray that everything works out because Im in love with this place!!!!

This isn't for sure but we are hoping to visit Utah this summer in June!!!!
