Bitter Sweet

Instead of just focusing on my house and getting in there as fast as possible... this week I've been trying to changed my perspective.I've been coming up with things I am really going to miss about living with my parents. Here's a few things I've come up with:
  • Adult interaction: Al leaves before me and the boys get up and usually doesn't get home until 6-7pm at night. That's a LONG time for me to only be talking to a 1 and 2 1/2 year old. It's been nice to have my dad there in the mornings and Syd and my mom there in the afternoon. Gives me a chance to feel like an adult. ;)
  • The ward. Although I don't know much about the ward we are moving into... I am really going to miss going to the Nibley 3rd ward. I love going to Sunday school with Alek and then Relief Society with my mom. I love that my family entertains my kids during sacrament meeting, and helps try to get Briggs to sleep. Plus, I'm really worried about transitioning Jenson to a brand new nursery.😟Hopefully it will be about the time Briggs will be going into nursery and they can have each other for a little while.
  • I'm going to miss the big grassy yard. I'm afraid we won't have grass for awhile in our yard, so it's going to be a lot harder to go relax outside during the summer.
  • I'm going to  miss wearing Syd's shoes, jewelry, having her do my hair. 😁
  • I'm definitely going to miss not having to worry about dinner every single night. Haha
  • I'm going to miss having another female in the house to make sure my outfit looks good. 😉
  • Having other people there to help play and entertain my boys.
  • Always having a babysitter when Alek and I decide we want to get out of the house last minute.
  • Having the grocery store, Ridley's, 2 seconds from our house for all those last minute needed items.
  • Also, having a few different parks all within 5 minutes from us.
  • The cool canyon breeze in the summer.
  • The river in the backyard.
Gahhh.. There's just a few reasons... :) My family seriously helps us out so much! We are so grateful for their patience and for everything they do for us. It's definitely going to be weird when we move out on our own. But, I'm sure they are looking forward to not tripping on toys all the time, the house being a little more quiet, and being able to sleep in on Saturday morning. Heck, maybe I'll just stay?! 😉
