Who knew choosing paint colors could be so stressful?? Will I like this color, is this the right color? What if it looks darker, lighter, greener or bluer once it's on the wall. Ahhhh! I may be driving myself nuts here. I still have to wait until I can bring the paint samples to the house to get a color for the kitchen. I just ordered Abby's twin bedding for her new room, which is very similiar in color to what she has now, but I need to compare and make sure before we go ahead and paint. I can't say I'm looking forward to painting, it seems like it's going to be a lot of work, but it will be worth it in the end.
DH's parents came through for us, and they were able to give us the gift that they had promised us. Lucky for us, we found out today that we won't owe any money at closing. The downside is that we didn't know if we would get this money, so we couldn't tell them we had money to put down too. It's not big deal, this money will go towards the appliances, fixing the deck, all the other miscellaneous things we needed for the house, and finishing the basement, and best of all, we shouldn't have to dig into our savings for it. That's such a relief for me, because I really wanted to keep as much in our savings as possible.
This pregnancy is going by fast, but I'll admit, it's been pretty boring so far. All work and no play. Headaches, backaches, bloating, fatigue, nausea...will the fun stuff start already? I have a little bit of a bump, which is nice, but I love the nice big round belly. I also can't wait to feel those first real kicks. I feel little movements, tickles, here and there, but they're still so light. I want to feel real kicks, especially from the outside. It's so neat once that starts to happen! For now, I'm trying to enjoy some of the simple joys of being pregnant, but not really feeling pregnant most of the time.
