New house, tired Laura

Whew...it has been quite another busy week for the Anderson family! We finally got the rest of our things out of the old apartment yesterday (thank God, no more wobbly steps and spiders!!) and now the baby's room looks like this:

Poor baby's room, you need some work my friend...it is really nice however to have an entire room that is empty at the moment, so that all of this stuff doesn't have to hang out in our living/dining room. I do not deal with clutter/boxes very well, and after spending the majority of this past week unpacking and putting all of the previous items we brought over away, I was not psychologically prepared for everything to be junked up again. Thankfully the baby's room door shuts, and I can block this mess out and work on it a little at a time. 
This past week I have been job searching in addition to doing house-wifey things like cleaning and cooking, which was actually quite fun (not the job search, but the cooking part) I used to say that I would never want to be a housewife, but I have really gotten into the groove of being home and cooking nice big meals for Aaron every night (he hasn't minded it either!!) Well, the fun needs to come to an end, as nice as it is I do not receive a paycheck for housework, so please pray with me this week that God will bring just the right job into the picture. I have applied for 15+ positions in the area, most administrative/clerical type jobs, but work is hard to come by for everyone these days.  

Pre-baby I would just find a nice restaurant and wait tables until something more solid rolled around, but the thought of being on my feet for 8+ hours a day and carrying heavy trays around does not sound like fun to me at this point. Course if this mom can do it carrying a baby on her arm, I guess I can do it with one in the womb, right?

Well, that messy room beckons... time to go start organizing the chaos. Tomorrow is Columbus Day, and one of the many perks of Aaron's job is that he gets EVERY holiday off, so we will be hanging out in Destin jet-skiing with one of his buddies from work-I haven't been jet-skiing in a long while, so it should be a good day! I will try and get pics up of the house once everything looks more together...hopefully sooner rather than later!
