The Madsen Clan

Just a quick post for the week. I just put a few pictures that we have taken over the past few days. I didn't even know that the one with Mays and I sleeping had been taken. I have been so extremely exhausted lately and I had went and laid down in my bed to try and get him to go to sleep and it looks like he put me to sleep instead. For all you who know me, I usually jump on Disneys website after Christmas and get their after Christmas sales. This usually always involves next years Halloween Costumes. Well, since the boys are loving the Power Ranger thing I ordered 4 costumes. A couple were like $7 and the other 2 were only $10. I hope they last until Halloween. They haven't wanted to take them off all day. Macee told me I should have ordered her a pink one and she would have dressed up with the boys.
Anyway, not much new. I have been trying to start doing little projects to get this house ready to sell. I keep asking myself if I am crazy to do all this right now but I also now that we aren't all going to fit in this house much longer. We have started looking at plans and it's all pretty exciting. Hoping to break ground within the month!!! So the doc office called the other day and asked that I come give some more blood. He hadn't realized when he looked the results from last time that my iron was low. He kept asking questions like, "have you been really tired", "are you feeling okay". Funny thing.... If I could I would probably have a 3 hour nap every day go to bed at 9 and wake up at 8 the next morning. For me this is crazy because I am the one that goes to bed at midnight and is up at 6 am. I have just been SOOOOO tired and thank goodness I know have an excuse. So, I went and gave more blood and my Iron count is extremely low. They put me on some huge ugly horse pills that look like straight blood and if that doesn't bring it up in the next couple weeks they have to start injections. LOVELY!!!! But at least now I have an excuse for the reason that I have been so tired. Thank goodness for Shari who has been helping with little projects around the house. I can't even imagine showing this house over the next 6 months. I really hate that part but.... you gotta do what you gotta do. We are hoping that the house will be built by Sept. Our builders told us to list the house right now and face the problem of selling early if that happens. I keep joking with Eric that it will sell quickly and then we will move our family into a 2 bedroom apt for 6 months. How crazy! Well - gotta go! We have dance and scouts so.... tis the life!!!
