16 weeks...where is the time going?

Whew....we made it back from vacation...tanned and tired :) And I'm already 16 weeks. It's amazing...the time is going by so fast. I can't believe in as little as 4 weeks we'll already be half way!!! Yikes...so much to do....and not enough energy to get it all done ;)

We're slowly working our way through all our "must do" projects. Our new heating/air conditioning is next. The guys are coming out this weekend to take pictures and measurements....so that will be a relief once that's in. Now that the weather has cooled off...hopefully our electric bill will be lower.

After this project...we're going to get some estimates on hardwood/laminate flooring for the downstairs. After that we have to start tackling my junk...all my old college papers...etc that have accumulated over the years into the closet which will be become the nursery. DH will be working on the other closet full of computer parts during his week off. :) More to come!

13 weeks....we have a heartbeat!

Ok...so I've been slacking...I know. I have a feeling this may not be the first time I say this :) We had our 2nd appt. on last Friday. It was great! I can't wait for our next appt so I can hear the heartbeat again. It was all over way too quick, but the most important thing was that we heard her or him :) I think it made it all even more real that day...that yes...there is a little person growing inside of me...and it won't be long and we'll get to meet that person :)

This week the baby is the size of a medium shrimp. Heehee...cracks me up how they come up with all this food related sizing. It really helps to visualize how big the baby is...but it still makes me chuckle when I get my weekly emails updating me :) DH & I have already started planning in our heads how we're going to rearrange all of our furniture...and what we want to have done to the house before the baby gets here. We'll see if we get it all done :)
