So Much is Going On...


Where do I even begin? We bought a house, we are selling ours, we have a baby coming in a month, this little stinker in my tummy is still breech, I have a baby shower this weekend and am hosting a bridal shower next weekend...oh and I need to finish the nursery!!!

It seems like the last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind. We closed on our new house today which we are so happy about! We will officially be moving to Lincoln sometime this summer. I can't wait to be close to so many of our good friends and family. Plus, I really like our new house! It's a little bit smaller than our current house which is actually kind of nice considering that this house we are in now is made for a family of 6. It has an awesome backyard, pretty finishes and will be the perfect spot for us to call home. We had less than 3 weeks to close escrow and so needless to say the last few weeks have been a little bit stressful making sure that everything went smoothly.

Also, we just listed our house. Know anybody interested in living in West Sac? We are going to miss this place, but the new move is the right one for us at this point in our lives. I will say that there is a part of me that is going to miss Sacramento. We are 5 minutes away from downtown, super close to work and I love living on the river with all of the pretty views. I absolutely hate having people come through our house though. Tonight I wanted to punch this realtor who was showing our house after she tried to just walk right in. Ugh, excuse me...KNOCK! Can you tell how excited I will be when this part is over?

On the baby front I am just about 5 weeks away from D-Day! I can't believe how soon that seems. Even more so, I can't believe that in 5 weeks I will be holding this little nudger! I can't wait to meet him or her and kiss her and kiss my husband and look at our little family that we have grown.

As always I have a thousand doctors appointments and today the doctor told me that the baby is still breech (which I already knew). I want to say that I'm convinced its a girl only because I think she's being stubborn like her mom, however I'm not really convinced. :) The doctor also told me that I am not really a good candidate for trying to turn the baby because my stomach is so tight and I am so tiny. He said that he doesn't really want to put me through that because the ECV's are usually more successful when someone has a little more room in their belly to try and turn the baby. That being said, they are trying to prepare me for a cesarean. I guess I'll just take whatever comes my way as long as I have a healthy little baby at the end of it.

This weekend is my last baby shower and I can't wait! America, one of my girlfriends from highschool is flying up for it and I can't wait to see her and spend Saturday night catching up with her. I have the sweetest group of friends who are hosting it for me and the other sweetest bunch who are all coming to celebrate with me. I truly feel lucky.

Next week my mom and I are hosting a bridal shower for a good friend and I am so excited about it. I have been scheming over this party for months now and I really think it will be a lot of fun! I got a really cute idea for a martini bar from me and mine's blog which I can't wait to use and I have a really cute bartender coming to serve cocktails (my husband). After that I am hopeing to have a couple of weeks to finish the nursery and get things ready for baby.

And what about this little man, isn't he the cutest? He's not a baby anymore :( Every time he see's me he points to my stomach and asks "is that my baby in there"? He is going to be such a good cousin and I love him.
