We moved!!! Thanksgiving brought many reasons to be thankful this year. First, I am thankful for our families and friends! A special thank you to those of you who helped us move! One thing you quickly learn when you move is just how much junk you have! Apparently, we have A LOT! We moved from a 1100 sqft apartment to a 2500 sqft house. I was afraid that most of the house would look empty for a while. Not so much! Yes, there are rooms (such as the dining room) that doesn't have any furniture, but it is a great storage place for boxes at the moment. We still have to set up the nursery, but for the most part, each room is full!
Setting up the house is definitely a process! I am finding that while I love being pregnant, the physical restrictions are killing me! I am definitely a "move, get it organized, make it look pretty, and enjoy as quickly as possible" kind of girl. When you are pregnant and at the mercy of others helping you, that process sometimes slows down more than you would like. This is my life a the moment! There are still a ton of boxes that need to be unpacked or stacked in the garage to be put in the attic. Decorating hasn't even begun, except for the Christmas trees and the mantle! I had to decorate for Christmas!
The GREAT news is that we bought an entertainment center and couch. The entertainment center looks fabulous and the couch is to be delivered in January! I cannot wait! We do love our house! There is plenty of room for guests and we are adjusting to having to search a little longer in order to find one another!
In recent BABY news....we had a 4D sonogram on the 7th. As a Children's employee, I got the joy of having one of these done for free! It was awesome! We got to see Grant's face! He is precious! We thought it was quite hilarious that he kept sticking his tongue out at us and putting his fingers in his mouth! We aren't sure who he favors more, but we did find out that he has a head full of hair. THAT I know he got from me! Bless his heart! Let's pray that his hair is more cooperative than mine has ever been! If all else fails, we will get stock in Bed Head and give the little guy a baby mohawk!
Life is definitely full of change for us right now! But, we are taking it in stride! (OR at least trying too!) We can't wait for Christmas. We have several things planned with families and friends, and we are going to be finishing up our birthing and CPR/infant safety classes.
Sorry that there aren't any pictures, but stay tuned. I will try to have some posted soon!
