Well, I am here to finally update after like a month lol. Things are going really well. Still a big adjustment being here and with B's new shift. I got sick a week and a half before our anniversary with a really bad cold. It really knocked me out for the week and I am trying to make sure that I don't wear myself out again. I think that I got sick from all of the stress of moving and such. It is NO fun being sick and pregnant. I don't want to repeat it!
I think the biggest problem for us since we moved here is trying to get on a regular schedule (is that possible for someone with a job like his? lol) and so we are feeling pretty tired now. But I think it is due to me still trying to get my bearings in the new house.
Ah, the house. Haha ;) so the house that we are living in used to belong to my grandmother and we are fortunate enough to be living in it. We have a ton of space now BUT the space is still full with boxes and drawers and closets and drawers of stuff that my grandmother "collected" over 27 years of living here by herself. She grew up in the depression and kept EVERYTHING that she came across. So it's been rough trying to unpack our things and go through/get rid of my grandmother's many collections of interesting doodads and trash piles lol. There are also more repairs that need to be made that we weren't anticipating. She was unable to keep up with the house in the last years before she had to leave (she went through chemo and began developing signs of dementia) so the stove range is not functioning and some of the plumbing in the bathrooms need to be replaced. I am so grateful though for this new place and the fact that we are so close to family. And I know that it is hard right now since we are still practically living out of boxes but things will get better. Also, when the baby gets here I know that I will have a ton of help which is very comforting.
Even though there is a lot of changes in B'swork as well I think that it will be for the better because he was ready for a change and the town we have moved to we have absolutely fallen in love with and we are planning on staying for a while :)
Some of my family will be here today to help me try and knock more of the cleaning/unpacking out so I am pretty excited and thankful for the help!
B and I spent the weekend in Franklin for our anniversary; it was SO nice to spend three days together with no cell phones and to be able to sleep in everyday! lol
Yup. We kept our cake top :) it actually was not bad. The cake part was kinda spongy but the icing was perfect. I didn't know if I was gonna be able to get B to eat it; he was kinda nervous haha
The weather was beautiful that weekend so it made it even better. Its been raining almost every week and every other day around here it seems. Nothing but blue skies however, when we were on our trip :) it made me happy
I really have not been able to keep up with documenting my pregnancy the way that I wanted to :( we finally took a new pic of me the other day though!
Definitely can't hide it anymore! ;)
The ultrasound pics we got on our last visit are amazing! We had already decided to wait and find out the sex when the baby was born but when we were there it was sooooo hard to not find out. But we stood strong! lol I will try and post those pics sometime soon. Well that is a quick update. Time is flying by for sure and I am trying to keep my feet on the ground! Keep us in your prayers as these changes are going on. It would be much appreciated :)
God is so good though and I am confident that He can take care of us; He has proven Himself faithful time and again!

Wow! You guys have had an enormous amount of change in the last few months. Praying God will get you through one change at a time. It sounds like the changes are all for the better though and that is a wonderful thing. You look positively adorable! We also waited to find out with both of our children, I don't regret it a bit!
