Home and family

So I truly owe you some knitting/spinning news, but I have not had much time to do any of that lately (unless you count the spinning lessons I gave to my 2-1/2 year old neighbor Emily -- well, she kind of just spun the wheel with her hands while shouting, "Look, mommy, I'm making yarn!") Hopefully I'll have more time for all of that once we get settled in our new house in the next few weeks -- yes I have to share more personal news, we are now homeowners! And here is Dave doing some "exterior beautification" (which is about the only thing we can work on right now, as the interior is having its floors stripped and refinished and its walls painted before we move any stuff in).

And, we saw our baby again yesterday afternoon. I asked the doctor why he/she wasn't jumping around in the u/s like last time, and he said, "Michelle, babies get to sleep too..." and then the little baby wiggled a little, like he/she was snuggling. Awww...Dave is convinced he sees a little penis, but I told him that if the Dr. couldn't tell at this point, neither could he. Anyway we should find out if it's a boy or a girl in about 2 weeks, at least if the little one is looking in the right direction at the time! And if it's a girl, she's still getting a blue bedroom -- I like blue, and I'm a girl!
