Furniture

I am so excited about the new furniture we just ordered. Does that make us grown ups now? We will have our own furniture that was not previously owned by someone else! We won't even need slip covers...I like this grown up thing. So now I get to set up a new living room and a new nursery at our new house. There is something so fun about new things, I am just so thrilled. Especially since we looked for furniture for 2 years!!! We were looking and looking and couldn't find a thing. We had finally found what we wanted about 4 months ago. But we decided to wait until we knew where we were going to be living. After we found out our new duty station, we went back to order the furniture. The store was going out of business and they no longer had the furniture. So back to square one. Last night we just decided to stop in at a Bassett Furniture and they had exactly what we wanted. So we ordered and in 4 weeks we will have a new living room. What has my life come to that I now get excited about furniture?

Since Lexi is not here yet to take adorable pictures of, you get to see the pics of our new furniture ;).

New Start

So in just 6 more days we get to move into our new place. We are excited to move into our new townhouse in south Jersey. We get to still live close to Matthew's family and will get to see them frequently. We are also excited about moving into the house where we will be living when Lexi is born!!! I can't hardly wait until i get to set up her room with all of her so cute little girl things. We are excited about living in a 3-bedroom place to have space as we grow our little family. Though moving at 6 months pregnant is not ideal, it is fun to have a new start in a new place.

Pregnant and Sick

We had a great adventure this week. Thursday night/Friday morning at 12:30 am I began throwing up. After throwing up a couple of more times I called my DR. and she sent me to the ER. With a total of about 20 throw ups later, I was admitted into the Labor/Delivery unit. I got my own very private, very expensive tour of the unit! During all this I began getting sick from the other end as well. Apperantly dehydration can bring on contractions which is what happened. I only had a few contractions, they stopped quickly after the nurse got the IV's going. We are now at home and feeling better. I knew this would pass for me, probably a virus, but I was concerned for Lexi. She has not baked nearly long enough!!! I was released from the hospital on Friday afternoon and am now just taking it easy. Praise to God that Lexi is safe and still in the uterous!!!!!
