Well, I am pregnant and sick and exhausted. That probably has a whole lot to do with it.
So, I am expecting #3 on March 15, 2013. We are having a new house built for us that should be done on December 15, 2012. We are loving Oregon. Rob loves his new job.
Lessons learned in the past few months----
- Moving to a new state without knowing a soul is extremely hard and unless you have done it yourself you have no idea what it is like.....and I have done it three times.
- When the lady behind you in church is pregnant, and there with her two small toddlers please do not turn around and glare at her every single time your 1 year old makes a peep. If you don't want to be sitting in a meeting with lots of kids, you are probably a member of the wrong church.
- When you get pregnant with your third kid your body instantly makes you look like you are six months pregnant. Fantastic.
- No one gave me a manual of all the things I was supposed to teach my 4-year-old before sending her to preschool. Stressful.
- Nursery with 12-18 kids in a tiny room is a stressful calling. Being in a brand new ward and not knowing a soul, having two toddlers myself, and being pregnant makes being in nursery a bit of a struggle right now but I am definitely trying to magnify my calling and do my best. But, Sundays are BY FAR the most exhausting day of the week.
- Having gone through some of the struggles I have gone through in the past few months I have wished the people around me had a bit more compassion for what I have been going through.....struggles that everyone knows about and struggles that nobody does. I am going to try a lot harder to have compassion and empathy for people because you never know what is really going on in their lives.
