We have FINALLY moved into our new house! I'm still trying to clean and unpack everything. We've replaced the toilet seats and the locks, put up a new curtain in the master bedroom because there was none. I've called the repair man for the fridge that was in here when we got the house and they are coming tomorrow sometime between one and five pm to fix it. I'm pretty sure it's just the freeon in it, but I could be wrong. Hopefully it wont be too expensive! (We still have to pay the apartment fee of 1000 dollars to get out of the lease that we were in. It really sucks, but whatever. We'll just be a little tight till Christopher gets paid again.) Right now I'm working on setting up the kitchen and it's taking me a little bit of time. I'm discovering that I have to change the way that I thought I would put things away because the cabinets are really deep, but kinda short. (At least the ones by the sink and dishwasher.) I should try out the dishwasher at some point too. I guess we're lucky because I've only found one live cockroach and two dead ones. YUCK!
Update on Lilly:
I went to my doctor appointment yesterday only to find out that I am now 2 centimeters dialated, and having contractions! My doctor says that if I keep this up, that hopefully she'll come in two weeks and I will have already reached 10 centimeters and she can just pop out!!! I hope that this will be a very easy birth because I still don't plan on taking any drugs.
We also had Lilly's baby shower this past Saturday! It went very well, and I got a whole lot of cute things! Especially diapers! haha. It was really nice!
Christopher has been working a whole lot these past couple of days because his district manager was in town. He had to make everything in tip-top shape. All of this hard work will pay off though because he gets tomorrow off and doesn't have to go in until 1pm on both Thursday and Friday. Then he'll work closing on Saturday and he'll be off on Sunday! I miss him, but I know that he is being a good provider for our little family.
I'm doing just fine and dandy! I'm not feeling any of the contractions that I'm having yet... I mean I feel them, but they aren't at all painful! I really just want Lilly to come! I want to meet her. I've been watching TLC and the programs called "Bringing Home Baby", and "A Baby Story", and "Baby's First Day" and every time the baby comes out of the mom whether it's by c-section or a regular birth I get teary-eyed because I start thinking of how it will be when Lilly will be placed on my chest after I push her out. (and I know that I will be having her vaginally because my doctor said that her head was "locked" in the vaginal canal and that because she was already there she wont change that position as she's gaining more and more weight. I feel so fat right now because I have gained 8 pounds in the past two weeks!!! (I'm sure most of it is Lilly and I know that it's totally normal, but I still feel like a big tub of lard!)
So far, that's all the news I have for all of you's!
Mom and dad were going to come for the birth? How fun!
