Well, its Thursday already and I don't have a whole lot new to report!! Nothing new since last week with the baby. She's been moving around a whole lot, and her little kicks and punches are becoming more pronounced. Yeah, notice how I'm using she and her? Even though we're still not sure, I feel weird calling the baby an "it" after I saw the ultrasound pictures. So until we know for sure I'm just going to keep on saying she and her! Weird, though? All the dreams I've had have been with the baby as a boy. Guess we'll find out for sure in January!!!

Our house is coming along. Brett has been painting like a mad man! He took a well deserved break from it last night, so just the kitchen and dining room left to do. I was a little nervous about the living room color the other day. The first coat looked pink. No joke...pink! Thankfully, the second coat brought out the brown, so I think it'll look great once the furniture is back in. With the painting getting done, it finally feels like things are coming together. Brett decided that he wanted to do new trim, so we're going to be waiting on that. Personally, I thought the old trim was fine, but what do I know?!

I'm trying to clean out the spare bedroom so we can start filling it with baby stuff. I seriously didn't realize I had so much crap!!! I've already got 2 bags of clothes for Salvation Army and 2 bags of books and movies for the library. And did I mention the contractor sized garbage bag of just garbage?! Still, I find myself just standing in the middle of all the chaos going, "what do I do next?" Its all very overwhelming. I'm dreading hitting the closet. Its the only one in the whole upstairs and I'm losing it to the baby!!! Well, maybe I'll only have to lose part of it for now! I think I can share!!

Well, nothing else is new. I'm happy to take any suggestions on how to manage my mess!!
Love you all!!
