I am still so very jealous....

So Joash made it to Tyler yesterday and got to help set up some furniture and beds in the new house. He said it was beautiful! He got to see the lake, and said it was huge! They had to go shopping for towel racks/toilet paper holders. The house didn't come with them! That's so funny because when I bought my house in Biloxi, mine didn't come with them either and my Dad goes "I wish I would have been there for the final walk-through because I would have noticed that kind of thing, so we don't have to purchase them ourselves"! Lo-and-behold, "Mr. Professional Home-Buyer" goes and does it himself! Hahaha, I got a good laugh out of that if you can imagine. When you're so wrapped up in the ins and outs of buying a new home, you don't notice the little details. Shea even saw the house before the purchase, "Ms. Interior Designer", and she missed it as well.... Funny stuff. What's not funny is that I have to wait 3 more weeks to see our new place!

Anyhow Jonah has been taking some pretty hard hits on me this past week. I guess he thinks it's funny, or he's just letting me know that he's in there and he's active. I still haven't gotten used to the feeling, and I just don't like it! It's comforting to know that he's in there and alive, but it's not comfortable to be woken up with the jolts and flutters. I know it's only going to get worse since yesterday was the beginning of my 3rd trimestser. We are on the home stretch now! I go to the Dr. again on Monday. We will see how things have progressed. I am still thrilled that I passed the gestational diabetes screen. From here on out, the Dr.'s appts will be getting closer and closer together, that means the end is near! I have been reading up on lots of labor and delivery information, and just learned about the good ole mucus plug! I had NO idea that thing existed, and i'm not excited to discover that I lost it one day, either. Oh well... I know Jonah will be well worth the aches, pains and sleepless nights!

I don't know if I wrote about this in an earlier post, but my cousin in Houston, Kammy had her baby and I saw pictures of Isaiah the other day. He is so precious! They have been in my prayers because he had to be placed in NICU until tomorrow morning. So they are hoping he will be home then. I wish them all the luck.

Also on a good note, I have the best BFF's ever! I spoke to both Alexis and Emily yesterday and I am just thrilled that they are putting on my last 2 showers for me! Alexis will be throwing the one in Midland, TX on February 28th. Both my grandma's, my sister, and friends from Hobbs and Midland (hopefully Lubbock, too) will be joining us for that one, so I'm real excited about that! Emily is throwing me one in my hometown of Picayune where I will see most of my friends and Mom's friends that are still there. I can't wait for either one! And i'm just looking forward to seeing everyone.

That's all for now, let's see if I can dig up some work.

PS- Joash starts his new job in Prairieville on Monday! Thank the Lord!
