April

I know I have promised to keep up on this blog but so much has been going on here I really have not had the time. I also didnt want to write to much about the baby in case something happened, it just felt like bad ju ju to talk about it yet. Now that I am almost 12 weeks and I have already seen the heart beat I think we are ok.

Soooooo......where to start???

I guess with the beginning of the month. I am not officially a SAHM or Stay At Home Mom in case you missed it :o) Work got to be to much for me with the impending move and the baby so I left the first of the month. I was really sick of working as well, my boss was really being rotten as well so it was time for me to go. I have been a bit bored since being off, but this pregnancy has really been different and I have had lots of nausea which makes my day not so wonderful. It has been nice being able to take naps when I need to.

The middle of the month brought our pre-approval letter for our own home, which we have worked sooo hard to get! We were so excited we went house hunting right away! We had been looking online as well for the last 3 months in hopes that by move time we would have our approval so we knew what we wanted to look at. We went and looked at 6 houses and all of them we thought we would really like and they all had something not right with them that we didnt want to deal with at all, lucky for us our agent had gotten a new listing that morning which was the first to last house we went to and we fell in love with it immediately. We put an offer on it that night and that started our journey towards first time home owners status :o)

It is now the end of the month and the home purchase is well underway and we are expecting to move in the second week in May. We have some small remodeling projects to do in the house but I am very excited to do them and make this house our home.
I am also almost out of my first trimester of pregnancy. I only have a few days left and I am very excited to be done with it and in a "safe zone" so to speak. We have had a couple of scares with this pregnancy and I am ready to not have to worry anymore. We still have not told our families about the baby but I plan to soon. I ordered a photo mouse pad for mom with a picture of Riley holding the ultrasound picture that I plan to send to mom as soon as I get it. I know she will be happy, well everyone will be happy.

Well I guess that is enough for right now, I will try and update this on a regular weekly basis at the very least but I cannot promise anything since I dont know how busy I will be in the next couple of weeks with packing or the new house.
