New life.

I'm currently sitting outside, enjoying fabulous rays of sun and perfect temperatures. Spring weather never seizes to amaze me. It is truly uplifting to hear the birds chirp and smell the signs of new life.

Speaking of new life, Ryan and I heard the babies heart beat on Wednesday. The only word that can describe this is amazing. For me it really brought to life the excitement of being pregnant and having a new life growing inside me. Ryan and I just smiled as the babies heart beat pitter-pattered away.
We also heard good news all around for my progression and results from my blood tests. My midwife, who made us laugh through the whole visit, says I'm doing just right. I felt very refreshed leaving my appointment.

Today, was a good day. I packed 2 more boxes, downsizing as I went, which means 1 closet, Maddi's bathroom is done and ours is half done. I spent some quality time with Trina. We got a bit of running accomplished and stopped into Goodwill in search of treasures. Found a few things I felt I couldn't live without; including 2 juice glasses and the perfect frame for my DIY cork board. I love successful bargain shopping!

It's 8:30pm now. The sun has set on another busy day.
We are at the new place. Ryan is trying to finish the set up of our new salt water fish tank. So far it has been a huge hassle. The sea creatures are rather disatisfied with their home as of right now. So Ryan has a bit more work to do before we will start seeing movement and color. Good thing he loves this stuff so much.

Tomorrow is the first day of moving. We, well the guys, are going to move the big furniture; beds, couch, dresser, table and shelves first. I get to sit back and watch (and pack more boxes). It will be another busy day.

I'm excited though. The new place has more storage space than I expected. The walls have a fresh coat of paint and I am pretty sure there is brand new carpet as well. It smells like new. We can even have a grill on our patio/little square of cement.

I can definitely see us being comfortable here. I can't wait to turn it into home.

Keep loving.
