I am just a little grumpy today. There's no real reason behind this, except maybe the fact that I'm only one test away from being done with the semester and I'm tired of studying. OR, it could be the annoying bicycle with the lawn mower motor attached that keeps driving up and down my previously peaceful street. Either way, I just can't shake this "life sucks" mood I seem to be in. I think maybe I just feel ready to start our "real" life. The one where I'm done with school and we are in our own house and raising our family. Most times I'm able to wait patiently for all of that, but every once in a while I just get anxious. That anxiousness was brought on today because I found out someone I went to highschool with is pregnant again. She had the cutest picture of herself with her big belly on myspace, and it just made me want to be pregnant. I feel as though I've waited so long to start a family. I know that I've made the right choice to go back to school, I know we will benefit so much from the extra income I will be making, but I'm ready to be done already. Maybe I need to spend some extra time with Jaimme and Leslie and play with their babies to get my fix. I'm not sure if that will help, or just make me want one all the more! So, for the record, expect an announcement from me around June or July of 2010! ....see how far away that is...2010? seriously?

2010 is not that far away! What I did was make a "to do" list of things I wanted to do/see/hear/experience before I had kids. It passed the time quickly and was really fun. I jumped out of an airplane, traveled overseas, strengthened my bond with my girlfriends, etc... Going back to school is an amazing accomplishment that will make your future a little easier. You're gonna be a great mom. God knows the timing, just trust in him.

Thanks Julie, I really needed those uplifting words today. It's a great idea to make a list of things to do to make the time go faster. Maybe Cody and I can work on that together.

I second what Julie says- once the little ones are here you will have time for NOTHING! (: So get it in now. Add some serious sleep to that list cause that will be missing also. Sometimes you can't think too far ahead or the time will just seem to stretch into eternity. You are so much closer than you think so keep up the great work. We are all so proud of you and I promise you will be so glad you got this taken care of before you had kiddos. (: Love ya! Oh and I realize mine isn't a baby anymore (sob sob) but you can still borrow her anytime.
