Still a Girl!

We had our big anatomy ultrasound this morning. She is doing great! Everything is measuring right on track for our due date, and they estimated her current weight at about 13 ounces. She showed us her privates wide open, so yep, definitely a girl still. :) Also, could I please have at least ONE child that has MY feet? This one is looking like another big foot. Jared's feet are super wide, as are Caleb's and Isabelle's, looks like this one is just going to continue the pattern of needing wide shoes. Now to finalize her name... :)

Pictures!

A basic run through of the house. We will be changing the carpet (when you see it, you will understand), painting, and CLEANING!

Here it is from the front.

Inside the front door. See the lovely carpet? :)

Front room again

And third shot of the front room, now looking into the kitchen/great room area.

Kitchen! plus a little of the front room

More kitchen. Where the table will go.

'Nother angle :)

And one more. :) Family room area. Where we will do the majority of our hanging.

Backyard looking at the sunroom. Yeah, they cemented everything. We will be cutting up a good portion of the cement so the kids can have a swing set.

Inside the sunroom.

The door to the rest of the backyard.

Hallway. Coat closet and linen closet.

This is where the door to a bedroom use to be. They put this in instead, and opened the wall between the master and it to make a retreat. We will be turning them back into two separate rooms. Master bedroom, two rooms for kids, plus an office for Jared. :)

The "retreat" that will be turned back into a bedroom.

Where the door should be. You can still see the paint lines when you are standing in front of it at the right angle.

Master bedroom, the big window looks into the back yard.

Master bedroom and master bath through the archway.

Master bath. Two sinks, with shower/toilet through the door to the right, and the closet on the left, plus a linen closet you can just see on the left of the picture.

Bedroom.

Bedroom again from a different angle.
Last bedroom, and the smallest. Will be Jared's office.

Front bedroom again. The windows look out to the front.

Guest/kids bathroom. I LOVE the separating door!

Second hallway linen/storage closet. Kinda funky in shape, but better then a bare open corner.

Garage. Door into the house on the left, and to the outside on the right.

Garage from the other angle. Its an oversized two car garage that we are happy about. Plenty of room for Jared bike stuff, and the car!

Oh my goodness, is this really happening???

Yes it is!!!!

Thats right folks, we are in escrow!!! We are sooo excited!!!! It is 4 br, 2 ba, 1800 sq ft, on just over 6000 sq ft lot. Its an REO, been vacant for about 2 months at this point I think. So it needs some serious cleaning, new paint, and new carpet. But its going to be ours!!!! We are super excited, and so are the kids!! They keep asking if we can move now, I think they are ready for some space to move! (not to mention their own rooms :)) If all goes well with the inspections and appraisal, we will have the keys to our own home in our hands in 30 days!!! The bank wants a 20-30 day escrow, but we will see. All depends on how fast we can make things happen! Picture to come later!

Here she is!!

We got to go have an ultrasound done today. It is one of the new tests they do measuring the thickness of the neckfold to determine the risk for Down's syndrome. We had a great time! This little on is quite the mover, and she kept putting her arm over her face, as if to say, woe is me!! It was pretty cute. Obviously since I keep saying she, yep! Its looking like a girl! Still a little too early to go out and start buying stuff, but she kept flashing her legs wide open, and there was nothing there to see! One time we saw here bop herself in the face pretty hard, its so cute to see them moving around so much, even though they are so tiny still (only about 1 1/2 inches so far)! Here are the pictures we got today, hoping for clearer ones next time!
