Well, we've managed to find a house to rent! We sign the lease on Monday morning and can then start to move things in. Of course I have to get the water and electricity connected on Monday, but I'm hoping to set it up for first thing in the morning. Michael has enlisted the help of a couple of his buddies and they will be moving the big things on Tuesday. As my condition puts me in a state where I can not help move the big things, I will be going to work and hoping that all of my stuff makes it to the new house in one piece. Well, makes it there in the first place is more like it! Someone has a habit of not knowing where things end up if they move them without my help, I won't mention their name but I'm sure you all have a good idea about who I'm talking about...

I will be sending out a mass email with our new address. If you do not receive the email and wish to know what our new address is, you can email me at an8di@yahoo.com. For our security, I will not be posting the new address on the website! We will be picking up the keys for our mail on Monday, so I would assume that it would be safe to start sending to the new address next week.

I am so excited that I'm going to be able to set up my Christmas tree and decorations by this time next week! Austin is going to be so excited that we finally get to put up our Christmas tree. Every time we go to the grocery store we have to go look at the Christmas trees!

Week 29 is here! Only 11 more weeks to go if I go until my due date. Here's some information about what's going on inside her world:

Your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. Her muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and her head is growing bigger to accommodate her brain -- which is busy developing billions of neurons. With her rapid growth, it’s no surprise that your baby's nutritional needs reach their peak during this trimester. To keep yourself and her well nourished, you'll need plenty of protein, vitamin C, folic acid, iron and calcium. (About 200 milligrams of calcium is deposited in your baby's skeleton -- which is now hardening -- every day.)
