So it's official... we have a house in Rexburg! We made an offer last week on a lovely double-wide mobile home owned by a little widow who has taken wonderful care of it and it was accepted! We just have to go through all the lovely paperwork and all and fun stuff! How exciting is that!?! We are really excited to get to actually have a place of our own. It makes me feel so... grown-up! We will have a room just for baby too... so that will be exciting! I was kind of wondering where she would end up as we were searching for apartments and not finding very much of anything. Most of what we had seen would have been a tight fit for us. But- we don't have to worry about that! Hooray!
I am starting to look further at the ever-daunting task of packing up our house. It seems like it will be a lot of work. I can't say I'm terribly excited about doing it- and yet I'm way excited because it means we are that much closer to moving! I have mixed feelings about moving. I realized the other day that we are leaving in like- 6 weeks. Wow- that seems like such a short time! I am very excited to finally move to Rexburg, because we've been talking and planning for what feels like forever. There is a lot that is gonna have to go into this move though- it's a long ways away up there in Idaho! I'm glad to have so much family and friends and ward people around- I definitely will need a lot of help to get this done.
Thomas is deep in the throes of job-searching for when we get up to Rexburg. He's actually fixing up his resume right now as I'm typing this to send it off to someone he found up there. He definitely won't find as good a job as he has now- I think we've been kinda spoiled living here. But it will be a great learning experience for us and everything will be just wonderful.
My next goal in learning how to blog is to put pictures up. My mom just gave me a whole bunch of pictures on a CD of me all pregnant and stuff and I have to figure out how to get all the pictures from Thomas' computer onto our big hard drive where the rest of my pictures are- and then I can start putting pictures up here! Yay!
You have a house! That is so exciting! I am so happy for both of you and your reverse pioneer plans. You great-grandfathers went to Idaho to settle it. Your grandfather left Idaho to pioneer a different way to live. Now you guys are being pioneers and returning to Idaho. I think that is way too cool. The concept of living in a place where AC isn't needed also sort of blows my mind.
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to learn to be a grandfather 1000 miles away.
that is so exciting to find housing, it's wonderful to have a space for baby, even if they are with you 24/7 for the first couple months. and don't feel bad for complaining about not feeling good! You don't get to do that for much longer. And as long as you can keep down your pre-natal vitamins (i recommend taking them right before bed - less nausea that way), your baby will be just fine. Does chocolate milk sound appetizing? That was the most nutrition i got for many a day.
ReplyDeleteWho is cute than you? No one, I say. I'm so glad that you have a blog, so I can keep track of you. I can't wait to see that baby! Good luck in your exciting move. I'm sure it isn't the easiest thing to embark upon, when you're ready to have a baby, but I'll be praying for you. Love you, Megan.
