7 weeks 1 day

7 weeks 1 day :) 

another day closer to seeing our beautiful baby and its beautiful heartbeat! 

I am super excited! 

So far week 7 has brought 

less cramping, almost none at night now! woowhoo

on and off boobie pains and nipple soreness

increased peeing. 

a uti. 

increased cm. 

and cat nails. 

wait maybe I already had those? 

haha. 

Anywaysss 

I am feeling good! I have an appointment tomorrow morning at my OB office

my first prenatal appointment! I am kind of nervous but more excited. 

I know it probably wont be that exciting but I have never been before and I 

am excited to be going through the process! 

I have a long list of questions

my main one being 

can I take a bath yet?! lol.. I do shower I promise 

but my new huge tub with 6 jets is calling my name. 

I have read so many things that say, its fine, and its not fine at all. 

So I am just going to ask the nurse and maybe another nurse and the Dr. 

just to be sure. ha. 

Oh and listen to this! 

I have a rash! haha! another flipping rash!

I think I have tracked it back to the body butter I just recently bought

its real light when it goes on so i decided to scrape out clumps of it 

and smear it all over my stomach and boobs. 

two days later, rash. bad rash, super super itchy rash!

do you know how hard it is to not scratch your boobs in public?

Hard. Waiter looking at you like you are crazy,

 only to realize your hand is in full scratch all the way down your shirt. 

ya. that happened. I couldn't help it! I was itchy! 

In other news,
•Scott and I went to church this morning! 

it was nice to go, I felt really good when I left, and the new place is huge! 

and really cool. I think we are going to try it out a few more times before we decide

to make it our place.

•Scott's freelance business is booming 

•The house is coming a long, trying to finish up some projects 

so we can get an appraisal and see if maybe we can move before the baby gets here! :) 

I am excited and sad at the same time, I do love this house. 

We poured our blood sweat and tears into this house, and have made it our home. 

It is a 3 bedroom 21/2 bath bi-level 

but we are already outgrowing it and I think when the baby comes 

we will be crowded with all the stuff we already have plus baby things. 

I found my dream house online a few days ago, in a beautiful neighborhood 

right in the heart of the city I love, in the school district I want my children to go to. 

the next morning I got online to email the seller, and the status had flipped to

off the market. :( 

boo. 

O well I guess it wasn't meant to be and I will keep looking, since we did so much 

(knocked down walls, ripped out all carpeting, removed and painted all doors

painted kitchen cabinets from nasty brown to pretty white, installed hardwood floors, 

gutted the master bathroom and much more..) 

I now am looking for a house that is perfect, 

that has everything I want in a home and somewhere where I will never

 have to paint another damn cabinet again in my life. :) 

•I will update after my prenatal appointment!
