Time to get out of this apartment!

My husband and I moved from Maryland (where I was born and raised) to Stafford, Va., back in January 2008!  We moved into this 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment on the second floor!  Back then, it was just me, Jeremy, 3 month old little Cayden (aweee tear!) and our old dog, Manny.  Now we are still in the same apartment but have expanded...ALOT!  Another (big) dog, another kid (Kaylee-Bug) and ANOTHER baby on the way!  We knew it was time to get out of here!  On top of that, we have been dealing with so much crap from this place.  A $25 fee for having a trash bag outside of my front door for an hour...waiting for Jer to come home for lunch to take it to the (always over-filled, DISGUSTING, trash compactor)...the man living above us playing FOOTBALL with his 8yr old son all hours of the day, sounding like a herd of elephants up there.  Maintenance people just walking into my house when I am in just a towell!...an air conditioning and heating unit that doesnt heat or cool the rooms properly.  A dryer that has to be run TWICE each load to even dry my clothes.  And the list goes on and on....AND ON!  Soooo lets just say, we are READY to get out of here!!!  Well my husband just found out on Tuesday that we are going to be moving to Lynchburg, Va., NEXT MONTH!  I am so excited!  All the houses we have been looking to rent online have atleast 1acre of land!  It will be so nice to finally have a yard for my kiddos to play in!  Plus I am so excited that I wont have to take Cayden into my bathroom and let him play in the shower for a whole 1.5hrs while Kaylee naps!  If he is out in the living room (which is right by her bedroom) when she naps, she wakes up to the slightest sound he makes...also why the man upstairs pisses me off so badly!  So this month is going to be a crazy, hectic month!  But I am just so happy to be out of here!  Just sad that we will be moving from 1.5hrs away from my family to 4hrs away :(.  Anywho, we are going to look at the houses in person next weekend.  When we pick one, I will post pictures of it :D YAY!

    I know exactly where your coming from! We had a teeny tiny 2 bedroom apartment we lived in for 2.5 years and it was literally falling apart! (had foundation issues) and was just dirty! Although we only have 1 child we didnt want to have more because of how limited our space was! So now I am proud to say we are homeowners and going to soon be TTC! Congrats to you guys! Can't wait to see your new place!
