Shew, painting this home has been a pain. But it'll be worth it when we get the home sold! I have two rooms to go, mine and baby Katy's room. Then I'll need to do trim and doors. And get someone to clean the carpets professionally. We hope to put the home on the market next week.
Izzy will be two on Thursday....crazy huh? I sure can't believe it!
We got a letter in the mail today saying that Middle TN Christian School was reviewing Madelyn's application and we should hear from them soon! Say a prayer for us that she gets in!!
Sorry this is such a short post, we've been doing stuff around the house all day and I'm just plain exhausted!

3D/4D ultrasound
Well today was our 3D ultrasound! And I have a picture of Katy's foot and her behind, showing SHE is a SHE!! Ya!!!! She was flipping around and has her feet up by her head, so we couldn't get any clear pictures of her face. We tried turning me on the left and right and then walking up and down the halls and drinking a Hi-C Punch, but she was facing my spine the whole time!!
So in two weeks (March 20th, which is mine and hubby's 5 year anniversary) we will go back and try again. I'll be 29 weeks preggo, and hopefully baby will be in more of a head down position (instead of a breech like she was today) and be more spread out so we can really see her!!
But the good news is that our little girl is STILL a little girl!! And she was moving and very active and just beautiful!! So no cool pictures now, but check back n a couple of weeks!!

Midwife Appointment
GREAT appointment!!
My mother-in-law was over helping me watch the girls and do laundry so I could paint and pack! So she got to meet Jeanne and Marilyn! My blood pressure was back up 100/65! Finally, "normal" blood pressure!! It's been too low the past couple of months, so I was thrilled to hear the number be normal! Baby is head down, but I could have told you that one, baby likes to kick my rib, OUCH! I'm measuring 28 cm, which is a little big, but not big enough to be worried about. And since this is my third baby, they are not concerned at all.
BUT I've put on 13 lbs in one month! Total weight gain: 23 lbs. Sooooo.....I'm shooting for a 4 lb weight gain for next month. My midwifes are not worried though, because I really haven't put on "too much" weight at all. And baby must have had a huge growth spurt (once again, could have told you that one!) because I really haven't put on weight anywhere else except my tooshie (sorry TMI) and my belly!!
Here is the kicker of the WHOLE appointment!! Baby's heart rate is still measuring in the 140s!! Perfectly normal....but typical for BOYS not GIRLS!! AGH! And one of my midwives said she thinks it's a BOY not a GIRL! AGH!! I've got to talk hubby into going for that 3D ultrasound NOW!!!! I'm fine with either sex, but I would like to know what I am having. If it is a Boy, I have nothing remotly boy-ish!! Now of course heart rate doesn't mean anything, it's really an ole' wives tale. But Marilyn has been Midwifing for almost 35 years and she said in her experience, most boys do have lower heart rates, and most girls have higher. Sigh. What if Katy turns out to be a ...... Kevin or a Kaden or a Keegan....Oh no!
Life is good! Baby is good, Maddy and Izzy are good and Justin and I are good! We've gotten a lot done on the home, a lot packed and painted, moved and sorted. And with the beautiful 70 degree weather weekend coming up, I know we'll get the rest done, hopefully this weekend!!
Pray for us!
