A New Nest

Okay! We officially sold and closed on our Utah home this past week! We are thrilled and feel very blessed. It sounds like a very sweet family is moving in, so it is nice to know that two families have been blessed in the process.

And you know how life goes, from one thing to the next, we had a home offer accepted (which feels miraculous in this CA market). So, we are now in escrow on a house in Folsom CA. We are currently in the investigation period, so we shall see what happens. You never know, right?! But, we are excited at the prospect of having a place to bring the baby home to once he is born.

Speaking of baby, our boy kicks all the time. He's big enough now to give me some pretty strong, startling kicks to my ribs. I think he wants more room. Soon enough he'll have it. 2 months until I'm due - October 21! Some people still don't seem to be able to tell that I am pregnant though. Ha! It is kind of funny and kind of annoying. I want attention and pity, you know doors being opened for me at the bank and those little smiles strangers give when they see evidence of your physical state. But when people just think you're fat, they don't care! :)

Anyway, I wonder sometimes if "the boy," as I shall call him, will come early or late. Either way works. I of course was ready to be done being pregnant at about 8 weeks, so you know, I guess I can keep waiting a little. Not that I want to curse myself to wait. Things are starting to get very uncomfortable in this body of mine, whether people can tell I'm pregnant or not! However, if my life continues the way it has been going, he'll be here early. Likely, the day after we move in to our new home or something. One thing to the next ladies and gentleman, one thing to the next.
