FINALLY

Welp. We are finally in our new place! I'm so excited! I have a bit more unpacking to do but it's been an overly decent experience even though I basically did half of it myself. (Dan was gone when we moved)

Anyways here are some great pictures of the Kodster she's pretty funny now. Giggling and laughing and FARTING like a man! ;)

4th

Wow today was HOT! I finally convinced Dan to get off his rear away from the t.v. and take us somewhere. I went for a jog around 1130 or so and on my way back I saw Debi and her new husband and the girls leaving the wedding site. Debi finally got married today.

Anyways Dani was heading out to the lake and Demi wanted to play catch with Dan, so we decided to head to the park with some food and chill there. Got some great pictures and we had a nice time relaxing. Hope everyone else's 4th was nice as well.

Well today we've been packing and cleaning up the house. It's been go-go-go since this morning and poor Kodi has been stressing out and not sleeping too well. Of course its been super nice and HOT outside so being on the 3rd floor didn't help matters any. We also managed a trip to g-ma ''tita's" to drop off a table and visited for a while.

Demi even dropped by for a visit...

I felt like an a jerk...

Okay I just feel like a real jerk now. Kodi has been sleeping really good lately. Last night for some reason she was up a lot more than usual and I was pretty frustrated.

She kept kicking me and flailing her arms around and I couldn't figure out what the deal was. She wouldn't take the boob for anything. I mean she would, but then she would pull off and flail around.

Well after an hour or so of this I'm finally really frustrated and I go and run my hands through her hair like "seriously! What is the matter....???"

She was SOAKED with sweat.

*punch-punch*

What a moron, I can't believe I was so impatient with her and here she was trying to kick the blankets off and get me to wake up to cool her off.

I felt like such a jerk.

Did I just say that?

Ever say something and then go "OH CRAP...!". Yeah I do that all the time.

Tonight is a good example, I don't know what my deal was I just opened my bit trap and let the words fly. Poor Dan. Seems I can be quite the jerk now-a-days.

You ever notice how hard it is to pick on those that we are the closest too, or how easy it is to point out there flaws? Not that mine aren't as big as the nose on MY face, but you get the picture.

Lets just say, I was an ass tonight and Dan went to bed early. Poor dude. Guess I could blame it on the upcoming move and all the stupid packing we have to do this weekend. And of course its during the 4th of July. That sucks.

Ah well. Guess I'd better go appologize, or at least go to bed so it's not just 15 minutes before Kodi wakes up for her Midnight snack!

Here are some great pictures from today....Kodi was pretty fussy by the time Dan wanted to play with her. Otherwise we would have gotten some pretty good pics with her and him and their "hats" smiling. Enjoy.

New Apartment

So it's official (well so close...) we have found a new apartment or condo to move into.

Demi told us last week that she will be moving in with her Mom in her new house. Debi is getting married on July 4th, to a man named Ray. Apparently Demi and Ray's son will be officiating and Ray has a brand new house off Badger road in North pole approximately 7 miles from Fairbanks. I actually think it's pretty ironic that Debi is getting married (IE: getting hitched) on Independence day, but maybe it's just me. SO...since Demi is moving out we are free to shop for a 2 bdr place for Dan, myself and Kodi.

Which means...Kodi gets her own room! I'm pretty excited about that. It's about time to get her things set up and get all her clothes, diapers and baby stuff out of our already cramped closet. So now she's going to have her own place to store all her stuff. I'm super stoked about decorating and getting it ready for her. It's like we have our selves a "little family". I'm excited anyways.

Our new apartment is across town but a few miles closer to Kodi's care giver and my work place. So...hopefully that will save on fuel. The apartment is 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, it has a garage, a beautiful BIG kitchen with green granite counter tops, and hard wood floors on the main level. Then it has carpeted upstairs and 2 big bedrooms and the master / upstairs bath.

As it stands we will be acquiring a garage and a .5 bath for the same price of our old apartment and will just have to buy a stack-able washer and dryer and pay an extra $25 per month to have it in our unit. Other wise we'd have to pay $3.00 a load outside in the commons area. We even have a small deck and grassy area outside where we can relax, we just have to share it with the other neighbors. (we're on the end)

Anyways...I just pray everything works out. I think if our budget goes up at all it will just go up barely for laundry. But you figure if you buy a W/D and install it the electric we'd be using would be comparable to the amount we'd be saving by not having to plug our truck in all winter. Thank you Lord!

So I'm just praying that the Lord protects us and that we don't make any stupid decisions. Oh yeah....another plus...it's a secured building so you have to know someone to get in and then our front door locks as well, so it's pretty safe.

Needless to say I'm pretty happy.
