Moving?

I'll get straight to the point and say that I dont really feel like writing a whole lot today. We've got a lot going on and I'm just a bit stressed out. Money is a big issue for us right now. Our current place is just so expensive. We meet all our bills just barely, which leaves almost nothing for anything else. We're looking into moving but we're not quite sure. As I mentioned in a previous post, it would cost money to move out, move all our stuff somewhere else, and move in to a new place, but it looks like we may just have to do it. We have a place in mind but we're still working out details. If we want to have a little more flexibility than we do now, we will have to do this. We love our current place but not enough to stress us to the max and frankly, it's too big. We dont need all the space. So we're looking into moving into a 2 bedroom apartment - it's a really nice place that we're looking at: plenty of room for 2 people (and a baby) and it's cozy and comfy. Definitely smaller, but I actually kind of want that. Not as much cleaning ;) We can have both our cats there and we'll still have a washer and dryer (which is so important to me and convenient) as it has it's own laundry room in the unit. One level, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, private patio, fireplace, garage, and it's new and clean. Not an old dingy apartment. Plus, it has amenities (which our current place does not have): pool, hot tub, sauna, playgrounds, theater room, clubhouse, conference room, gorgeous front offices, and it's on a lake with a trail around it, which will be nice for running (when I'm not pregnant anymore) and taking baby on walks, as well. 

Like I said, we're still looking into it - it's not a 100% made decision, but by moving into this place, we will be saving about $400 a month. It will add up and it's perfect for us right now, especially because we're just not certain when we'll be able to get into a house - it's a waiting game with the apartment in Durango. It just makes more sense to be in this other place than where we are right now. The only thing is, we'll have to get on this quickly because of obvious reasons; I'm 8 months pregnant and we want to get a few things set up in a new place before baby gets here.

So just keep us in your prayers, if you could, that we will make the right decision for us and that it will work out how it's supposed to.
