BFF Appreciation Post
Well, most of you probably know by now, but I still cannot hold back my excitement about the fact that my BFF MOVES TO ARIZONA IN 9 DAYS!!!!! Like seriously. I could cry. Think of all the clothes we can share again. Or the fact that she can do my make up. Or even how every night is going to be like a sleepover with my best friend! Ok, I am being selfish. She’s actually moving here to help me keep my sanity with the babies while Jake is gone for the season, but the makeup and clothes are still a bonus, right?
Like I just cannot express how thankful (and excited) I am that she is moving here. But I mean, we have been friends for 15 years… so it was bound to happen eventually! She is the bestest friend a girl could ever wish for. Whenever I come home to Illinois, she drops everything going on to spend every moment with me + my babies. And now, she’s dropping everything to move across the countr
y?! How did I get so lucky??? I have a lot on my plate right now, almost too much actually, but having someone to be here and help me raise my kids is just going to make my life 10X easier. When the twins were born, I experienced a lot of post partum depression (I will post about that at a later time). I was really down in the dumps about Jake leaving and I was just in over my head with newborns + school (plus all those crazy post pregnancy hormones…YIKES). I definitely have a better mentality level going into this baseball season and I also feel things will be easier now that the babies are older. However, I still have a lot going on until I graduate in May + my summer classes, so I will definitely be needing the extra hands!
I think the best part is that I won’t be alone. Like I said, I was really depressed last time when Jake had to leave only 4 days after the babies were born. I hated being alone all the time and not having someone around to just hang out with. But now I am going to have my best friend sleeping right next to me every single night. WHAT MORE COULD I ASK FOR?! You know how you have those friends that you love, but you could never live with? Well that is not Cierra + I. We once spent an entire summer living together and it was fabulous. We really connect well and balance each other out (I motivate her get sh*t done + she makes me pretty. The perfect duo). I know some people may think she’s an airhead, which yeah aren’t we all? But there really isn’t anyone else I would rather have here to help raise my babies. She is going to make them laugh and smile, and she is going to love them unconditionally. And that is all they need. Plus she can give us free boneless wings so yeah…….
It is going to be non stop laughter and smiles, so these 9 days just need to hurry up because I am ready to have my BFF under the same roof as me! (Plus look at her, she's a pro)
