24 Weeks

I am happy to say that we are FINALLY done with our landscaping and steps! It looks great! We ended up tearing all the bushes out, putting new ones in, took out all the black rock and added different colored rock, put retaining blocks up around the rocks in the front and back yard, and built new front steps. The house looks so much better!! I'm a huge fan of the wider steps and also very thankful the ugly evergreen bushes are no longer with us. We have put in many late nights and are so relieved we are done...until the next project:)

We also got the baby room all cleaned out so now we have room for a baby bed and furniture. Last weekend Tony, a friend from High School, got married in Des Moines. The wedding was beautiful and it was fun seeing people from High School that I never see. Before the wedding we went to Homemakers and got the baby bed, changing table, and dresser! Plus we also found a rocker/recliner we have been looking for forever. It was a very productive weekend!

I can't believe we are already 24 weeks! It has flown by. My stomach keeps getting bigger and bigger. I love it! Baby Moore is moving like crazy! Troy finally felt the baby move the other night so that was exciting. He first thought I had the hiccups but it was the baby. Usually when he touches my stomach the baby will stop moving. Now we know he will be the one up in the middle of the night when the baby is fussing :)

4 more days of school. I am so ready for summer! I need to focus on the baby and get the room decorated and do some more shopping. I will post pictures of my belly and landscaping soon. I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday weekend!
