10- weeks until baby is due.
9- days until we move
8- days until our movers come
7-days of school left for Kevin
6-the number that will complete our family
5-days until Kevin's 100 day of school party that he has really been looking forward to.
4-days of a gluten free diet. (Still lots of rashes. We are continuing until the 11th as our doctor instructed, we have also cut out Mary Kay and our laundry soap. Praying there is an answer. doctors think this is all stress induced. Let me tell you, it's also induced a lot of stress. I lay awake at night worried about my little princess Julia and although I bought a lot of treats and gluten free supplements most of them are oooooober nasty and as patient as she has been, she is also annoyed! Yay for rice Krispy treats made with rice chex.)
3- days of school left for Julia.
2- days until we are reunited with our Daddy.
1- very blessed Mama. I've handled this set of 10 days a lot better than our last set. We've had fun, I've been patient, we made projects, (a few of them failed) we've played cars, and watched movies, done homework, and played with friends. As sad as I am to leave the Wisco, (that hit like a ton of bricks when I was released as a Young Women leader on Sunday. Serving in the young women's for six years has been great fun. I thought I was prepared, but I guess I wasn't!) I'm so ready to have my kids back in a stable environment. I'm ready to talk about things other than movers, new houses, and new jobs. I'm ready to remove the weight from my shoulders, explore our back yard, help the kids decorate their new rooms, (by help, they get to pick out paint colors!) and I'm ready to get this all done so that I can have a baby. My arms are anxiously awaiting the weight of a new born, My nose longs to breathe in that fresh baby scent, and my hormones are soosoooo ready to get back to normal! And quite frankly, I'm ready to climb into bed with my husband every night. I'm high maintenance and I'm not afraid to admit it. I need him, he balances out my OCD, as he so kindly calls it!

Man, seriously, Jessie, I don't know how you do it all. You are amazing. I am anxiously awaiting your arrival in New England. My kids have a break from school the last week in February. Maybe I can make a trek over.
Oh, moving is SO miserable. I'm already dreading it, and we are a year and a half away :) Hope everything goes smoothly for you, it will all be worth it when you are in that perfect house and all settled (ps, they sell specific "gluten free" rice crispies from the same brand. the box is yellow :)
