I Just Laugh About It. What Else Can I Do?

So things have been pretty busy these past few days.   We have been helping some friends move into a new house that they just bought. 
Well, I just sat and watched everyone else move.  The glory of being pregnant during move.   But other than that I have been stressing about the upcoming days and months.  We as a family have so much to go through.  So many changes.  A new baby alone should be enough to keep anyone stressed to the max, but we decided to make life a little bit more interesting and through in a deployment and a move across the U.S. .    So sometime by December 31, I will will have a daughter, husband in Afghanistan, Reilly starting PreSchool (homeschooling), boxes will be packed and moved to Arkansas, Christmas shopping will be done AND I will have turned 29!  So I do see the light at the end of the tunnel!

I just laugh about it.  What else can I do?  I dare not complain about it.  I really do have a great support system in place.  It wont be all work and no play, because the real way I should look at this is that I will have a new baby that thinks the world of me, love letters coming from a soldier, Reilly growing up(ok...might not be the happiest), and I will get to spend Christmas at home with the ones I love....oh and I will still be in my 20s!!!!!

The pregnancy is going.  I am approaching the end of 32wks and moving straight on to week 33.  No complications, however, I am so so so uncomfortable!  I feel like I have no room to move.  I gave up on the idea of bend down to pick something up. It just not going to happen!  Currently Atalee is laying transverse in my stomach.  No wonder I get kicked and punched when I sleeping on my slide.  Reilly did the same thing.  I wonder why though?  Reilly had alot of hiccups towards the end.  It will be interesting to find out if Atalee is the same.

Yeterday, Nathan and went looking at some  houses around the area.  We wanted to get a good idea of what prices are and locations.  We decided to back off buying a house until we can put down a down payment.  So maybe sometime after the deployment we will buy a house....maybe....I just can't believe how much you actually pay for a house when it is said and done!  I thought rent was just burning money, but actually not having some form of down payment and a 30yr load might be burning alot more money in the end.

Oh, we have created a project for Reilly when Nathan is deployed.  We are promising him a puppy.  Kind of a two bird with one stone deal.  We have wanted a dog for awhile, so we picked the breed and lettting Reilly get excited about it.  Sounds mean, but we will be the ones really caring for it.  Anyway, we picked the breed Vizsla.  I will tell more about it as time goes buy and I will do my best to keep up the progress.

Well, I need to get to sorting toys and packing Reilly's room.  Time is ticking!
