Things are coming along


I had to post these 2 cute pictures of Savannah walking around in my high heels. She walks really good in them too!

Daddy looks tired in this picture....






So we have a long list of things to do before little baby boy gets here, and we're working on them. A couple weeks ago we switched Savannah's room up. We took out the crib/changing table and put this full size bed in there. We have a frame for it, but we wanted to get her used to sleeping in a bigger bed and we didn't want to have to worry about her falling out of the bed. She has done remarkable with this transition. So far she's dealing with all the change very well. She goes to bed 90% of the time with no problem. Sometimes she wants to play or will be needy and want us, but she has adjusted really well. We've started saying prayers at night with her and she'll say her own little one too. It's so cute. She loves to take people up to her room and show them her "bed". She helps me make her bed and put her stuffed animals on it. We loved this quilt (which is actually a twin) and got it on sale at where else... but Target. I've been working on painting frames and have an idea for a wall collage that would spell out her name. I just need time to work on it and make sure that it looks good. I'm not sure how it will turn out just yet. To be continued...
Baby Boy's room is coming along too. All the furniture is ready to go and we're trying to nail down how we want to decorate the walls and stuff. The crib is full of junk though because for now, there's no where else to put it. haha. We have far too many clothes already, with a full closet and half full drawers. It's too fun buying clothes. We also moved our computer down to our main level. Otherwise, it was going to have to stay in the baby's room, and now that all the furniture is in there, their is no way we could have kept the computer and all the crap that goes along with it , in there. We got a new computer table that we really love and it fits perfectly just where we needed it to. It is sooo much more convenient. Although, out of nowhere Carter and I have developed an addiction to Solitaire on the computer. Carter's never really played it on the computer, but maybe once a year I'll get an itch to play and do it for a couple days. It's been more than a couple days now. We love to play this game! We fight over who gets to play at night! We really sound like total geeks.
I'm feeling pretty good these days. I have my days of hurting feet/legs/back and being tired, but it's not as bad as before. I definitely have a kicker/pusher in utero though. And lately I really think he's full on doing somersaults or something. My stomach really feels like it can't grow anymore. It's so tight and unfortunately I'm seeing the beginnings of those nice little purplish lines. I just don't want them to get bigger. I never got one stretch mark on my stomach with Savannah, just my thighs. I guess this one wants to stake claim on my tummy. I'm proud of myself though because I've only gained 11 lbs. so far. I think I'll be able to stay under the 20 lb. mark, which I mainly contribute to not being insanely swollen and retaining large amounts of water this time. Only six more weeks to go though, and that is crazy!
