After 5 1/2 years....

I am pregnant and have made it to my eleventh week and had my second doctor's appointment today. It was so fun to be at the doctor's office and see the little baby bounce all around during the ultrasound. The baby is 2" long now and is measuring at 11 wks and 4 days. The due date is November 16th and that won't come soon enough for me.

It has been a long road for Scott and I and he has really been there for me. I have such a wonderful husband that has loved me and supported me through this whole crazy time. I have been very lucky and have had no morning sickness and no crazy cravings. Although I did pull the pregnancy card and asked Scott to go get me some ice cream after a long day at work. I have just been very tired and very hungry, I am hoping that gets a little bit better during my second trimester.

Let the fun begin..

So the dirt work has begun and we have a drive way. It is so fun to drive home from work because on my way I can stop by our house and see what has been done for the day. So each day is new and exciting.

New House...

Well we signed a contract and the builder will start our house in March. It is so nice to finally get to the point of building our house. I have been dreaming of this for 2 years now. It is going to be 2 stories but from the front it looks like one story and our garage is going to be on the bottom story. I can't wait to get into the house. I love my parents and am so grateful that they have been able to let us stay here and save money and become debt free but is time for Scott and I to get our own space.

Now comes the fun part to pick everything out. When you have a sister who is an interior designer and specialises in kitchens and bathrooms it makes it just fun to pick stuff out and not stressful. It also helps that I have a great husband who is very relaxed and lets me do what ever I want. His only request is that he gets an under mounted or molded sink in the master bathroom. I think that I can handle that especially since I get to pick everything else, we basically have the same tastes anyways.
