Well, this past week has been so nuts that I haven't even had a chance to post! First off, house news. We are officially moving. This was such a struggle for me. We had actually discussed it late Tuesday night, and decided to wait until our house officially sold. Then Wednesday, God opened some doors that I had no clue were possible (silly human thinking, huh). It was truly incredible. And there's a chance that we may rent out our house - it would be really great if that worked out. So, we are set to close on Monday (the 24th). We did a walk-through yesterday to fix a couple of things, mainly touch up paint, and we've been busy packing. What else...Madelyn seems to be doing well. She's been pretty active still. I haven't figured out a specific pattern, although most nights she is more active between 8 pm and 6 am. And, she likes to "play" with David after dinner. Here is a typical play date - me sitting on the couch, she starts kicking a bit. David finds this amusing, and decides to tap my tummy. She kicks back. This has gone on for up to an hour. I'll have to admit - it is quite amusing. It's hard to believe that this is winding down! It went so slow at first, then fast, then slow again...I have to go back to the doctor Monday and do the glucose test, fun fun. Also, a lot of my preggo friends have been finding out what they are having the past week or so. So far, we're 50/50 boy/girl (with one deciding to not find out). I know a few more find out in the next couple of weeks...it'll be interesting to see what happens! So after seeing a few other people do this, I'm going to list a few of my favorite things that money can't buy, so here we go!
- Kitty cat dreams (puppy dreams too, but the cat is so much more funny)
- A cool, perfectly clear starry night
- Feeling (and watching) Madelyn kick me to death (other than the bladder)
- Watching David "play" with Madelyn
- A hotter than hot bath (which I am totally missing right now)
- A big, comfy bed (ok, so maybe money can buy that, but not cuddle time on the weekends)
- Watching some of my kids at school accomplish things that people thought would either never happen or would take years to happen
- Spending time with people who I love dearly but don't get to spend a lot of time with
The list could go on and on, but I think I'll stop there for now. =)
