Wednesday Night

In an attempt to ignore the people upstairs who are driving me crazy and have been partying and stomping around for the past three days in a row... five more days. Just five more days. I decided to watch some of my favorite dances on youtube. This one is a favorite :). It gives me chills every time, that's exactly how I feel every day. Arles is there for me even when I'm being the hormonal woman I am right now. He's everything I've always wanted and more then I hoped for. It's been an amazing four months.

I'm also procrastinating packing. We found this cute little house not to far from my parents for just a hundred dollars more then we pay for our one bedroom home. So we jumped on the opportunity and because of that we have to move this weekend...which means I have a whole lot of packing to do. But as you can see no motivation to do it. Oh well. There's always tomorrow

It's Official

Not that I haven't anouced this already but I'm pregant! I got the "you're pregant" from the doctor today :) It's a weird feeling to be honest; inside me is a tiny little alien-looking embryo. Something Arles and I created. I've known since the begining, I craved sushi for the first week of my pregnancy. Then about two and a half weeks ago I started throwing up. If I didn't love baby so much I might be mad at how this tiny little life makes me sooooo sick. But no worries. I'll have drugs for that soon :). Well that's all I have for now since I have work in half an hour...but I'll keep updating :)

Motherhood

I'm so exausted right now. AND really should go to sleep but I just realized how much of a burden I have right now. It just hit me. Inside me is one of Heavenly Father's children intrusted to Arles and I to raise and teach...how could I ever measure up to such a huge responsibility? Motherhood is a huge deal. Many people don't get it, children come straight from heaven and as such they need to be taught the right way. Not the worldly views. I love how my parents raised me and I hope I'll come close to the parents they were. Life is so special and I'm overjoyed to be a part of this process. It's going to be hard. It's going to be frustrating. I'm going to cry, yell, break down. But that's the thing, this is only a trial run and eventually our children will come to appreciate every momment in their lives.

Excuse the spelling errors. I am pretty tired :P

PS: Read this letter to me from one of my good friends Megan. It made me cry

You're My New Dream

Get ready for another cartoon break down. In Tangled Rapunzel is with Flynn Ryder on the water when she admits that all her life she’s dreamed of being there the moment the lanterns light up the sky. “What if it’s not everything I dreamed it would be?” “It will be” “What if it is, what do I do then?” “Well that’s the good part I guess, you get to go find a new dream” :). All my life all I wanted was to be in the temple and now I go all the time. I finally have my dream and even now it brings me to tears how blessed I am. I love my husband so much. I truly feel that I married my best friend; I know this sounds cliché but I feel like I’ve known him for far longer than I have. It’s been three and a half months since we walked out of the temple as Mr. and Mrs. Tippie and I’m still just as in love with him. We just fit; complete each other if you will. Separate we’re strong but together we’re stronger.

Back to the Tangled break down :P I have my old dream so what is my dream now? I’m not one for making goals but my new goal is to continue on the path I’m already on. I want to keep the same mentality that I’ve always had, to attend the temple often and stay worthy of those blessings. I also have another dream, it’s always been there but without a husband and the temple I couldn’t really focus on it. I want to raise a family in the church and teach them just like my parents raised me. You don’t think I got my love of the temple out of thin air do you? It was my mom and dad that taught me how important it is. That nothing should get in the way of those blessings. Nothing. I love life. And how Arles and I are embarking on a new journey, to bring a child up in this crazy world.

Sorry about all the love songs :P what can I say, my life has been a romantic comedy. You know the ones filled with cheesy lines and lots of laughter? Yup it’s one of those. There are so many funny moments that we have had. Especially with my Christmas obsession…Arles makes fun of me. At one point I was setting up the tree and listening to Christmas music when Arles starts to sing the wrong lyrics and off tune might I add. It was something about farts..anway so I turned to him and said “Don’t ruin this for me!” After which I closed my eyes and rocked to the beat of the music…he found it quite hilarious. Other nights we talk in our sleep. Apparently Arles was buying a sweater that was too small. I told him off while he was awake and I was sleeping. Oops :P. I could go on and on but I’m sure no one else finds them funny. Last year was filled with excitment and I know this year will be just as exciting :)
