So I am going to have to say it exactly how it is. Things have been so hard this week. I mean really hard for me. We have been packing like crazy and it is just Lee and I. We have had no one from the ward offer to help in anyway. Kaylee has been on school holidays and her and Spencer have pretty much been banished to the computers or TV whilst Lee and I try and get things done. I feel so bad for them. Then on top of that I feel so sick. When is it ever going to end? I am 14 weeks. I really hoped it would ease by now, but it hasnt and I am so so so so ill. When Lee and I are not packing I am in bed or laying on the couch because of the sickness and cramps. Which seem to be a bit worse with doing all this packing. Anyway this morning my little brother was on Facebook and said something about Easter. It is normally such a big deal with me. We normally have loads of Easter Egg hunts, Color Eggs, get our Easter Baskets out a few days before. Tell the Easter Story, make cookies, decorate them and honestly the list goes on and on and on.....
This year I just havent been able to. When I was talking to my brother I actually said I dont think we are going to have Easter this year. And I was seriously considering it. I dont even have the energy to go to the grocery store. So much so that this morning we had no cereal, no bread for toast, no eggs, no milk, nothing! I made baked potatoes for breakfast because it was all we had :) Lee has been going to the store daily for the few things that we need. So I was seriously not going to bother. When Kaylee asked me if Easter was tomorrow I actually said to her I dont know I will have to look at the calendar because I was tempted to tell her no and hope that she forgot about it.
Well this evening we went to Lee's sisters house as a last get together for the family. They ordered in Kebabs and we just hung out. Lee's brother told the kids that he would bring their Easter Eggs over tomorrow so I knew I had to get to the store and get something from the Easter Bunny. Well here is what we have.
I am so lucky there were a few things left in the store. So tomorrow when the kids wake up they will be so happy that the Easter Bunny showed up. And I get to see two happy children whom deserve it especially after the week they have had to endure. Unfortunately for them and me next week will be very much the same. Pray for me that we will be able to make it through and move to our new beautiful house. Because the way I felt after this week Im not sure I can make it through. They say the three most stressful things are having a new baby, moving house and starting a new job. We are doing all three and I didnt realise it would be this difficult!!
Oh and by the way the Dr rang this week and said that there is problems with me water sample. Not a UTI something worse. I get to stay on Antibiotics now for well I dont know how long. Hopefully it will keep this baby from coming to early. Though I have to say the blessings I have had say otherwise :) Man I could cry! Is it just pregnancy hormones?!?!

Oh wow...that's hard. I wish I could just hop on over the pond & help out!
I know no one has offered to help, but maybe you should ask! I know Lee has family, and you must have a friend or two that will take pity on you! :) Besides, since you are moving, you probably won't have to return the favor! :) ha ha
I know how you feel! We moved when I was 5 months pregnant with Maija, and Tom and I packed it up ourselves (the day before - wee hate packing so procrastinated, big time!). Don't be afraid to ask for help, your Chorley girls love you and I'm sure could lend a hand or babysit.... Get help, ok!!!
Where is Tamworth? I had no clue you guys were moving...hang in there, soon you'll be out of there! I miss you and wish I was there to help!
I am so sorry!! Tis is where I reallywish we lived clser so that I could come for a week and help out because that is what sisters are supposed to do!! I have to agree with the other two and say you really need to call some people to help you out. Remember they need the blessings and that is what they are there for!! hang in there! Love ya
so sorry things have been so rough. i hope it gets better soon. good luck with the move and everything.
Oh Alisha, this makes me want to cry!! I didn't realize things were so crazy! You deserve a vacation!!! I will pray that your morning sickness will let off soon!!
