Here is the last batch of photos. This is the outside. I only took the front of the house, J took the rest :

And these photos go directly upstairs:

And downward to the basement! :

Anyway, my husband and I bought a new house just yesterday signing the contract. *does a little dance* I took tons of pictures, and I must admit, I'm a very tiny person with a digital camera. I tried to get the size of the rooms (as this house is huge!) but I'm not very good with photography. I guess I should just stick to playing with my kid, huh? Anyway, here's the pictures of the first floor:

So the last house that I posted is in a pretty bad neighborhood. We decided not to buy it. Instead we're buying this really cute house. We went in and saw it. It's absolutely gorgeous and I already felt at home when I went in. The neighbourhood reminds me of my mom's and the lower level reminds me of my grandmother's old house. It's roomy, has a laundry room in the basement, the garage is attached, and the basement is huge. It even has an attic. I absolutely love it. We were approved for the home loan, so it's only a matter of time... It's in Missouri Valley, IA, and that's only about an hour away from Omaha, tops. It's out there close to the boonies, but I think it's worth it.

  • My quiz grades have been A's in class. I don't know what my assn grades are, as they haven't been graded yet.
  • Morning sickness has kicked in and it's no fun.
  • Lily is in her big girl bed...she's growing up to fast. :(
  • I haven't had a restful night's sleep in a while.

3 bedroom, 2-story brick house

J may buy this house. Depends on whether or not he gets a home loan. It's literally a block from campus so we could walk to school. We look inside this afternoon. We drove by it yesterday to look at it from the outside, it looks nice. I like it. I'm really hoping it works out. With our growing family, a house is a good investment. Also, the cost of living pretty much anywhere else that we want to live in is too high. J's grandmother even pointed out that we can take our time getting our degrees, work on a BA instead of an AS. *fingers crossed* I really hope it works out. That's a sweet fucking deal.

I've been nauseous, and very tired lately, but that;s something you just have to deal with during a pregnancy. I feel that this one is another girl, the same feeling I had with Lily. The pregnancy is different, yes, but the feeling is the same.

J, the baby and I went to WalMart yesterday and he bought me a new wardrobe. Since I gained weight after having Lily, I couldn't fit in any of the new clothes I had bought after the first pregnancy. Since I'll be gaining a lot more with Iris, I just needed a lot of larger clothes. Some need a few alterations on the straps, but that's simple sewing that I can do and fix myself. They are nice. J knows how to dress up his girls. ;)

Other than the normal irritating ailments that come with being pregnant things have been well, in my opinion. My husband is awesome, and my child, though a little monster sometimes, is a good girl for the most part.
