Seriously, while running today I though of my resolution. Guys, i'm pretty excited about it. It kinda encompasses EVERYTHING that needs working on.
Here are the things that need to be accomplished.
1. I can't sleep. No seriously...not without drugs. I LOVE ambien. Like really, I love it. More than most things in the world. But I have been using drugs (not ambien, I am too afraid to use it every night.) to assist me into dreamland every night for longer than a year now. I am only 24 people. This is unacceptable.
2. I need to pray and read my scriptures.
3. I need to stop eating when i'm not hungry.
4. This baby needs to come out ON APRIL 15th.
OK, so here's the plan. I have figured out how to accomplish EVERY SINGLE one of those things by setting ONE resolution. Ready....
MIND OVER MATTER
Guys, I'm pretty much going to become a Jedi Knight this year. Its all about the power of my mind.
Everyday I worry about if I will sleep well. I worry if i'll be able to fall asleep.
I am simply going to only think about sleeping well. Instead of worrying about not falling asleep, I will tell my mind that I am going to fall asleep with ease. I will never allow my mind to think otherwise.
I always WANT to read my Scriptures, say my prays ect. But I have a proven track record of failing miserably at accomplishing these two tasks on a daily bases. So I usually am thinking I will fail. Instead of thinking that way, I will only allow my mind to think about me reading and praying. Instead of thinking
"I want to pray and read tonight, but i'll probably back out." I'll thinking "I'm praying and reading my scriptures tonight."
You get the idea....
The BIG one is mind over mattering this baby girl the hell OUT OF MY BODY on the date that I want her out. I choose a weekend with Grace. It was a weekend 2 weeks prior to my due date. She came that weekend. SO, this time around I am stepping it up to a specific date.
I will not allow my mind to think otherwise. She is coming on April 15th. That's all there is too it...
So, I am just really excited about strengthening my mind this year. I am going to only think the way I want to live my life.
Also, just a side note. Grace calls chicken "rooster". Isn't that cute?

I was convinced I could get Oliver out on a certain date because I kind of did what you did with Grace when I had Jaxon and Henry (not a specific date, but within a few days). Then, Oliver was 5 days late and I was really disappointed and frustrated that my expectations weren't met.
I'm not trying to be discouraging because I definitely believe the mind is super powerful and can control the body, but just be careful:)
YOU CAN DO IT!
Nice! Can Simeon become your apprentice? He is seriously obsessed with star wars :D He would love you :D
I use a sleep aid (unisom) while I'm pregnant because it helps with my morning sickness. And then weaning myself off it in the middle of my pregnancy is really really really hard. But you can do it! I start by cutting my dose in half, then I cut it out completely. It's hard to sleep for the first few nights but it gets better. Take a nice hot bath and maybe do some stretching before getting into bed. If your brain just wont turn off try singing yourself (in your head) to sleep. It helps for me :D Good luck! Everything else seems so much more accomplishable after a good nights sleep!
