Groundhog day

I am ready for winter to be over. Now.

***

I NEED sunshine.

***

I NEED flip flops.

***

I NEED bermuda shorts.

***

I NEED warm summer nights.

***

I NEED weekend camping trips to Blacksmith fork.

***

I NEED to be able to take Preston to a park and let him loose without putting 6 layers of clothing on him.

***

I am having a second case of cabin fever this winter. (the first one being the first six weeks of G-man's life.)

***

And, I am beginning to feel exactly like the guy on Ground hog day.

***

Wake up. Feed Gunner. Go back to sleep. Wake up again. Feed Gunner. Feed Preston. Try to study. Feed Gunner again. Feed Preston again. Feed Gunner. Feed myself, perhaps. Put in a load of laundry. Pump. Go to school. Come home from school. Feed Gunner. Feed Gunner for the last time. Shower? Go to sleep.

***

Every Day.

***

Okay, not EVERY day. But the other days we are too exhausted to do anything. Or one of us doesn't feel like it.

***

Don't get me wrong. I LOVE my life, and where it is going, and everything I have.

***

However, I am seriously going insane.

***

I have considered running away several times.

***

Just to spice things up a bit, have a change of scenery.

***

And I would even take the kids with.

***

Moral of this story is, Summer, I am ready for ya!!

***

We have got to get out of this house!!

***

( I guess I would even settle for spring!!)

Phew... We've been busy. Ish.

This past month has flown by!! I don't know where the time goes, honestly, because we haven't been doing all that much.We had a few birthdays in the family in January but other than that, not a whole lot. We did get a gym membership (Yipee) and I have been taking lots of classes. Most of them kick my butt. Except for one. I have found a new love and its name is YOGA. Although my body definitely wasn't built for it, I love it all the same. I went to the doctor last month and we decided to try a new fertility medication because clomid was just making me grow cysts. So, I went to pick up my FIVE pills, and the total came to 96 FREAKING DOLLARS. Yes. I about died also. I tried to see if they were diamond crusted, but no luck. But I had NO side effects while taking them, so that was a plus. I guess we will see if they did their job in the near future. On another note, Preston is getting huge and I just want to squeeze him all day because he is so cute!! He is such a joy to me and I am so grateful that we have him. Sometimes I wish he would stop growing, though. It was Kacey's 25th birthday on the 7th of February and that was fun. We went to a hunting expo down in Salt Lake and then went to dinner. Kacey just so happened to find a twenty dollar bill in the parking lot while waiting for the rest of us to come out. Lucky Birthday Boy. And Valentine's Day was fun also. Except that I went and took two tests for college in a blizzard, but other than that, it was fun. Very low-key this year. All in all, a great start to the year. I will try to find some pictures to post for the three of you people who read this blog. :)
