I LOVE our little house!!

We will officially be homeowners for one year on July 28, 2011!! The more we do to the house, the more I love it. I enjoy being a homeowner. The feeling that it is ours(and the loan)... : ) that we can do, or change, and make it anything we want!! The difference in a year is unbelievable.


This is the kitchen the day we bought the house. It was dark, outdated, and heavily smelled of cigarette smoke.










As you can see we have done many changes. All the electrical was replaced to bring it up to code. We have pot lights above the counters. New ceiling fan. The paneling and soffet are gone. The back-splash got torn out but we haven't replaced it yet. Gene put the new floor in, after taking up four others. Painted the cabinets white. We got a microwave, stove, and fridge on craigslist. The old stove didn't work well. The old fridge is in the basement for beer.
 


 We are getting there!!! So much has been done it 1 year!

Ultrasound #3

Ultrasound #3 went GREAT!!
Baby stayed still just long enough to get a clear picture of the spine and everything is normal with baby. I am still cramping a little. Doctor said that if that dosen't stop she might have to put me on meds. to resolve those issues. Also, my platelet levels were low and if they don't get better I might have to see a doctor that specializes in blood and possibly get a blood transfusion.




Baby is 23 wks 2 days but is measuring at 23 wks 6 days and weighing in at 1.5 lbs!! Eugene took a video of the ultrasound that is really fun to watch.






It is amazing the clarity of ultrasounds. She moves so much and it is so cool to watch. I could have watched for another hour. She kicks, punches, sucks her thumb, it kind of looks like she is fighting with the umbilibal cord.




Hott Mama!! HaHa.... went swimming today and it was fantastic!! Temp. got up to 97 and the water temp. was 81. Started what could be a nice summer tan. ; )

Bloggy, Blah, Blah....

Where to start!?
I am happily married to my loving, wonderful husband Eugene.


We are expecting a baby girl due October 2, 2011. Tmrw is our THIRD scheduled ultrasound because this little girly is so active she won't stay still enough to view major developments!! I started having bad cramping on Friday, June 3rd, was admitted to Sherman for contractions. Was given Turbuterline to stop the contractions. I am still having cramping so I have been taking it easy so it doesn't happen again.




This ultrasound is from May 2, 2011. Baby is 19 weeks 3 days.









Me at 19 weeks 3 days.
