Have I mentioned...

that I'm with child? It's true. Baby #2 is on the way!

Most of you probably already know this fun development, but I felt the need to officially put it out there in the blog-o-sphere. We just went yesterday for our 17 week appointment. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going so far. At this rate, we'll be a two-child household in no time. Scary. Exciting. Scary.

Some of you might remember the life-changing all-day-long-and-most-of-the-night-sickness that I had with baby #1, aka Riley. Well, this time the sick came earlier, around week 7. And left much, much earlier too, around week 10. Thank you, thank you. It was intense while it lasted, but I can't tell you how happy I was --am-- was that it was easier than pregnancy #1. Oh. My. I guess every pregnancy really is different?

Other that that, smooth sailing. We've had some cool diagnostic ultrasounds to test for Downs, etc. and all have come back negative. Blessed, indeed. We are measuring a sweet-sounding week ahead and our official due date is September 22. Two weeks from yesterday, we will know whether our wiggle bean is a boy or a girl.

Stay tuned... 

Finally flipped

Has it really been over a month since I've stopped in? Insane. And what a month it has been! Well, needless to say the house is FINALLY on the market. And I really shouldn't say it like that. It only took 68 days to finish from the day we signed the closing papers until the house was officially listed on the MLS. I could not be prouder of my amazingly, awesomely talented husband. He kicked some major renovating butt on this one. And we even threw in a ski trip during that time. Minus that, we would not have been quite as far off our original goal of 60 days.

Now, we just need someone to buy this place so we can move on to our next project. We've already starting submitting some offers on other properties. As a matter of fact, we found a great house a few days ago and we're currently one of EIGHT offers. So, that's obviously a long-shot. I'll keep you posted!

Here are some official "after" pics of flip #2. And lest you forget what this little house once looked like, check out the scary before pictures HERE and HERE.
