Hey Pregnancy, you're funny

So, I didn't know being preggers could make your nose stuffy. I already looked it up, it's legitimate. Anyway, so I have a stuffy nose, therefore I can't sleep. I can't sleep so I get up to be online, I am up online, I get a teensy bit hungry. As soon as hunger hits, I get nauseous. I get nauseous, I run to the toilet. I throw up. I run to the kitchen to grab some food. I eat, therefore I am still not asleep. I can see the next few months being super fun!! Plus, I have to rebrush my teeth and none of this helps me fall into a nice deep sleep!

Also, our bed is already way to small for us now. Keep in mind Quaylan and I are on the thin side already. So I don't think adding 30 lbs to my belly is going to make this situation any better. I already know what we are going to have to do, but seriously!! We just paid off this bed!! How something the size of a blueberry is already causing me so much strife is beyond me!

Surprise!

For those of you who actually read our blog, you will be the first to know...We are pregnant!

We found out a week before we made the move to Colorado and we were excited, terrified, sad, happy, and excited again. So...give us a call. We are going to try to call everyone in the next few days but if you're reading this you might be one of the first to know.

We are in Colorado!

So, we have officially arrived in Greeley, Colorado!  It is about 95 degrees here so that already makes it the greatest place I've ever been!  I've never lived in a place with so much green.  It smells a few times a day, due to all the nearby farms, but I think we can deal.  Moving has been such a process!  The garage is full of boxes, but we are slowly getting everything put together.  It already feels like home; we love the house and Kanye loves the yard!  She loves sprinting around, rolling in the grass, chasing bugs and poking her nose into the neighbors yard.  We are so happy and I hope it only gets better!

The Long Hard Move

The four of us made it to Colorado and it's nice to finally be settled in. Below are some pictures but there are more on our web gallery which you can find the link to on the right. I just want to let everyone know that I pretty much unloaded, unpacked, and set up everything in the house. The picture of Amanda below is a pretty accurate account of her involvement. :) Luv ya Rese.

So it has OFFICIALLY began...

So the moving process has officially began. We have been slowly but surely packing (or throwing things out) throughout the past week.  This upcoming week will be pretty intense as we aim to pack everything else up, finish up at our respective jobs, and prepare for the journey. I'm sure it will be emotional but at this point, with the house being a complete mess, we just want to be done with it all.

You know what annoys us? People who didn't come to our going away party but then want us to come to their house the next week so they can say goodbye. Like we don't have enough to do. Either you come to the party or YOU stop by the house and say goodbye. I swear, people can be selfish and always find a way to make it about them. Sorry for the rant...but hey, it's a blog. What do you expect.

A Veggie Life

This is how bad our economy it is. We wouldn't consider ourselves vegetarians (because we do eat some meats) but we definitely eat like vegetarians. There are a few health reasons as to why we have changed our diet, but arguably the biggest motivation to eat like a vegetarian is due to the outrageous cost of meat nowadays. Have you seen what just chicken cost?!? Even at Costco it's extremely expensive. I never thought I would be saying this but it's actually cheaper to become a vegetarian in today's market. Don't get me wrong, I love a good grilled piece of chicken...but not at these prices. Forget it. At some point I just might start sharing Kanye's dog food!
