Babies and Moving

Since some of you have asked, here is an update on baby #3. We are doing great! I am still in shock that this might really happen, but each week that has passed has given me a little more peace. I will be seventeen weeks along on Friday, so I am into my 2nd trimester. I have heard the baby's heartbeat at my last two appointments. That was very thrilling!

A week ago Monday, we (me, Riley, Mary Kenzie, my sister Kaitlin and my sister Meredith) took a road trip. My sister Karoline (Boston) was in town for a long weekend. My sister Susannah does ultrasounds at her local pregnancy care center on Mondays, so she fit me into her schedule and I was able to see our baby again! He/she has grown so much since my first ultrasound almost 10 weeks ago. It was fun to be able to share this with some of my sisters and also my kids. My next appointment at my doctor's office is August 10th and that's when we'll have our big ultrasound and get to find out if this baby is a boy or a girl.

We close on our new house next Wednesday! We are super excited! Our current house still hasn't sold (anyone want to buy a beautiful 3 bedroom home??) so we will be moving in gradually over the next couple of weeks. We leave a few days after the closing for the beach with Michael's family, so while we're gone some of the rooms in the new house will be painted. Then, when we get back we'll start moving stuff in!
