Moving In Soon



Check out our house! There is still quite a bit of exterior painting and landscaping to do but you can definitely tell what it is going to look like. In the picture on the right we are standing in the back yard.

Nick has gotten SO much done, though. The walls are painted (thanks to help from Jeremiah and our future neighbor, Chris), and the light fixtures, faucets, and toilets are in. It seems like we will be moving in soon! SO, I decided it was time to post some pictures.








I tried to post captions under those, but it is a pretty frustrating thing to get it all to line up and I just don't have the patience right now. I think you can figure out what everything is. Anyway, I love the colors of the rooms. It took me forever to pick them and but I finally did (after about 10 sample cans of paint and a lot of good advice from Maureen and Becky). There are more pictures I could post but I think I will wait and show you guys the final product.
In other news, I am now in my second trimester. I'm almost 15 weeks and I feel SO MUCH BETTER. I have so much more energy and I have even found myself enjoying the smell of coffee in the mornings again. Nick and I had another doctor's appointment last week and we heard the little heartbeat and also the good news that everything is going very smoothly. Phew. So, I will leave you with that reassurance and the latest picture of my growing belly.

Ok so your belly shot looks so cute that I am willing to overlook the fact that it looks like a belly shot of me in that other picture:) Oh well I guess I shouldn't have tried looking awkward to be funny afterall:)
As you know I love the house, Ellen is so excited to come over and build forts in the loft!

I hate that I didn't get to talk to you at class the other day. It was great to have you there.

The house is coming right along. I like the colors too and noticed them right away.
I am glad that you are feeling better!
