Exciting News!

Exciting News #1: We moved into our new place and we finally got everything organized and set up.  It took us about 3 weeks.  I felt like it was taking foreverrrr. We're really happy with all the extra space we have.  Our new apartment is 200 square feet bigger than our old place and we love it.  Adding a baby to our old apartment was going to mean getting rid of some nice furniture that mine and Jacob's parents gave us and we didn't want to do that.  We found this new place and it's only $25 more a month.  And we don't have to pay gas anymore, so the cost comes out to about the same.  Eventually I'll post pictures of our new place, but for right now I have lots of other pictures I wanted to post.

Exciting News #2: We decided on a name for our baby girl and we decided we're not going to keep it a secret so here it is:  It is Marley Ann.  We haven't settled for sure on the spelling yet, it's either going to be Marley or Marli.  We have a couple of other names in mind just in case we decide another name fits her better when we see her.

Exciting News #3: I've had a break from my preschool job and I've just been working some hours at Melaleuca, but in my spare time I've been sewing for Marley!  It's been really fun for me, I'm definitely not a great seamstress but I enjoy sewing and crafting a lot, I'm pretty sure it's something I got from my mom.  Here's some pictures of some projects I've been working on:

Burp Cloths!

 Bibs

Baby Quilt

Pillowcase Dress...Hopefully it will fit her next summer!  By the way, baby girl clothes are so fun.  I'll have to post sometime with pictures of some of the cute clothes we have for her so far.

...And many more projects still to come!

At Melaleuca, we get points for the calls that we take.  I got a super cute wall hanging with my points from work:

(I noticed just now that my feet are in a lot of these pictures...whoops!)

And....one last picture.  A picture of my baby bump at 26 weeks!
