Our baby boy...

is going to be a Kentuckian!! : ) So many ways to express my joy, but instead of dancing or singing, I'll just say it on here.  We have been working through the process of buying a house for the past month.  Let me just say... it has seemed like so much longer than a month.  It has been a taxing, stressful, and nerve-wracking time, but now all we are waiting for now is to hear the closing date.  Zach is over the moon about the move, as he'll have an over 600 square foot building to play in and we are going to have a little over 8 acres of land.  I'm elated, of course, because we are returning to my old Kentucky home and my husband is giving me a beautiful, bigger house!  We really aren't sure what we'll even do with all the room!  The ultimate blessing is that we'll be in the house before BBS is here!  He'll spend his whole life as a Kentuckian! (No offense, Hoosier friends!)  That is what I have always wanted, though. Nothing is more important to me that raising my child in the state that I love.  I'm so glad Zach feels the same as me, and I think he'll be a perfect transplant!  He is also so excited because he will no longer have to drive across the bridge every day.  His commute will also be cut in half.  My drive will become longer, but it won't be too terrible. More to come once we close!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!
