Random Rant

Today we finally finished moving and cleaning the old apartment. It has been a long month but it is finally empty and sparkling clean. Tomorrow Cody is doing the walkthrough with the landlady and hopefully we can get the entire deposit back. And then we can finally be done with it all and enjoy our new home!

Christmas this year was not all that exciting for us. We both had to work through the holidays so we weren't able to make it home, and we decided not to buy presents for each other but to put the money we would have used towards something useful so in the new year we are going to be shopping for a new freezer! After 6 years of living with only a top of the fridge freezer, I am super excited! New years will be equally as exciting as Cody and I are both working nights.

I am now in my second trimester in my pregnancy and for the most part I have been feeling pretty good. There are random days when I feel nauseous and sick but most days I wouldn't know any different. Today, however, has been one of those random days, and the worst one yet. I have been feeling sick to my stomach all day. Other than randomly feeling gross the only other real big difference noted, mostly by Cody, is that I have become particularly moody and VERY easily irritable....hard to believe since I was a teen angel! (right mom?!)  I didn't realize I was being moody but once Cody kindly mentioned that if this is what pregnancy is like then this just might be the only baby we ever have, I started to realize just how much the smallest thing would annoy me. So I have been trying real hard to notice when I'm being grumpy and to pay real attention to how I react to things, trying to keep in mind what was once said in a Genereal Conference talk, to act not react. I don't generally like to use my blog as a place to rant but today I guess I just felt the need to do so.

I have always been more of an impulsive person than a patient one, and although everyone keeps telling me that these 9 months will go by super fast, some days it feels like a lifetime, and I still have 6 months left! I have yet to gain any weight and have actually lost a couple pounds, which is kinda nice! I am starting to feel a bit bigger in my belly however, noticing that it is getting harder to zip up my winter coat.

Anyways, I know this post wasn't particularly exciting or really even worth reading, but once this baby comes I might have something worth blogging about!
