Finally back!

Sorry for the delay folks! I have been using a school issued laptop for all my computer needs, and low and behold the school district figured out how to block Blogger, so I can view my webpage but can't make any changes. It took me a few days to figure out it wasn't going to change, so I will just have to post from a free computer (this one is Patsy's) for a while til we get into the new house.

So on to the news...

The house is looking great! The stone is finished, including my fireplace, and it looks beautiful! They finished the insulation finally. We had the new insulation blown in, sort of like a spray in truck bedliner with expandable foam into the outside walls of the house and the attic. It makes the biggest mess, but it is supposed to lower your heating and cooling costs tremendously.
The sheetrock crew finished up today. We are trying to find someone to tape and bed, they are all booked out. We finally found someone that will come by and look at it tomorrow, who says he can possibly start next week.
Wyatt is off for the next 3 weeks beginning Monday, so he will be devoting his time to finishing the house. Building cabinets, trimwork, and anything else we don't want to pay someone else to do. We are looking pretty good on the money side, so we are hoping to pay someone to paint, which would be a huge load off.
All in all, we are very hopeful to move in after Jan. 15th.

Had another sonogram of Lucy today and it is officially a girl...signed, sealed, delivered! The nurse in my dr's office did another sono where they measure and look for abnormalities and everything looks good. She is a bit large, measuring at about 24 weeks of age, which is about 2 weeks ahead of schedule. Normal for diabetic moms. That puts birth around end of March so far. Let's hope it doesn't need to be any earlier than that, because earlier than that becomes dangerous for Lucy. She might not be fully developed or ready to be born, but if she is overly large her size will force the issue. Not a good thing.

Still love my job, and enjoying a break from graduate courses right now. I will finish the Masters degree next summer for sure.
The pics are of the house, and a few from Cole's birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese. We had a surprise visit from Granny and Miss Freda before the party, and Nana came to take Cole to the movies on Monday. He had a wonderful birthday!

Love to all.
